Summary |
Indonesia's Attorney-General has indicated he won't wait for the next legal challenge before setting a date for the execution of the so-called Bali Nine convicted drug smugglers, Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan. But efforts by the families of the two Australians and their high profile supporters won't stop while there's still some hope of saving them."Indonesian law provides that a rehabilitated prisoner should be resentenced after 10 years of being on death row. Indonesian law has got a lot of philosophy and jurisprudence concerning rehabilitation. I'm just hoping for those policies and laws to be implemented for my clients," lawyer Julian McMahon tells Dateline, as he continues to work tirelessly on their behalf.Chan and Sukumaran were sentenced to death by firing squad nine years ago. In 2010, Dateline gained access to the men in Indonesia's Kerobokan Prison and the Logie-nominated story revealed for the first time Sukumaran and Chan's honest thoughts about their actions, their crimes and how jail has changed them. "It made me look at maybe one day I won't get up... so it's put me on a different angle to look at things differently... probably to cherish life a lot more than what I did," Andrew Chan told Dateline in 2010.Tuesday's program will update that story, revisit the men they used to be and the men they've become; with new insight from both Indonesia and Australia into the battle to have their drug smuggling sentences reduced, including interviews with two of the original judges from their death penalty appeal.Chan is now a pastor and Sukumaran is months from completing a fine arts degree. They've set up and run a host of rehabilitation programs, teaching inmates valuable skills to help them turn their lives around - a model copied at prisons across the country.But is rehabilitation enough to halt the executions? They've been allowed to develop and find a better path in life - will they be allowed to live? |
