Some families and supporters of the Bali 9 condemned drug traffickers arrived at Cilacap port to say their final goodbye.
Andrew Chan who married his partner Febyanti Herewila yesterday inside the prison on 'death Island' said it was a bitter sweet time for him while Myuran Sukumaran's famiy members were there for him. Myuran's sister Brintha wailed as she was supported by family members, she could not control her crying as she made her way through the crowds of people outside the port gates. At one point she collapsed and had to be supported by other family members, including her mother.

Chan's mother Helen Chan arrived visibly crying and had to be carried away as police officers led the family through the crowd. After the family arrived at the port, an ambulance arrived at the ferry terminal with nine coffins on board, which made them more upset. Inside the port complex, family members could be heard wailing for their doomed loved ones who are just hours from facing a firing squad. The families arrived on Monday but were told they would give their final goodbyes today Tuesday 28th April, 2015. Andrew Chan's Mum

Amnesty International has begged the Indonesian Government to wait for one more court date to be heard for all 9 convicts but the execution is still expected to take place after midnight on Wednesday, Indonesian time. Executions expected to go ahead despite court agreeing to hear legal challenge on May 12.

If only this will teach those still involved in the act a lesson, the world will be a better place.The country has shouted it times without number that offenders will face firing squad, yet people will not hear. I have no mercy for them abeg. May their souls RIP

We ALL know of the EXISTING DEATH SENTENCE for those who are caught with drugs in Bali. Despite knowing this, they STILL CHOSE to do so.They have no one to blame but themselves. They should have considered the weight of their possible capture on THEIR FAMILIES before going ahead into their "buisness venture!"
Drugs have RUINED a lot of INNOCENT peoples' lives!

This is pure wickedness, after all they didn't force people to buy their goods. U have the choice to buy or let go. The buyers should also be blamed for their reckless life n not d seller. Here we advise people to abstain but we've been told we can't force them to reduce it or abstain as we need to abide by the HRA1998. Hence they can smoke or use drugs till they die. So whose fault?
