[QUOTE= Also, if Indonesia is deemed so high and morally mighty, as it has signs up everywhere, why didnt corby etc get executed????
Why only a select few, and why now and what is the criteria???
Its obviously not just trafficking drugs that gets you necked.
If Indonesia executed everyone caught with drugs, i could understand it, but leaving it vague means people will take chances and judges can take bribes. It will be really interesting to see how far the allegations re the judges asking for bribes for a "better" result will go. .[/QUOTE]

Indonesia is ruled by a different government than when Corby etc was sentenced, also these people were sentenced to death 10 years ago,but the government of the day chose to not proceed with it,but they were still on death row.
President Widodo and his government had said that the death penalty for drugs would be carried out and the would be no clemency for anyone,which up to now has proven fact.
Cheers
