In 2007, this still happens
A worldwide condemnation erupted after a video posted on an internet video-sharing website showed
a Malaysian prisoner being tortured with a cane.

speed the execution of death row inmates, including three Australian drug couriers
under sentence of death in Bali's Kerobokan jail. The edict has grave implications

Bali 9 Case Info
Help support Mon's repatriation.
In September 2000, a Thai woman named 'Mon' [John-korn Jarearatikorn] was arrested
in Laos on charges relating to drug possession. She was sentenced by the Lao
Municipal Court to an 11 year sentence. By Thai standards,this would be considered
quite a lenient sentence given that many prisoners in Thailand detained on drug charges
are either given the death sentence or jailed for life.

Soe Paing Tinsoe
Dear Friends,I received a lovely letter from Soe Paing Tinsoe and he wrote beautifully.
I would like to encourage others to write to him and offer their support. Life is very
difficult for the Myanmar People. They are not wealthy by any means. They have very
little support and they often don't have relatives or friends visiting because they
can never afford to make the long journey to Thailand.
Emmanuel O Ihejirika
Life on death row is a constant anxious wait for Emmanuel who initially
received life imprisonment in 2004 for smuggling 396.6 grams of heroin
contained in 31 capsules in his stomach. When he appealed the verdict,
the Bali high court increased his sentence to death. He is currently
detained in Kerobokan Prison awaiting execution.
