An Australian death row convict married his girlfriend in prison on Monday, a day before his possible execution by an Indonesian firing squad for drug offences.
Andrew Chan, 31 who was convicted in 2006 along with fellow Australian Myuran Sukumaran for trying to smuggle heroin out of Indonesia, exchanged vows with Indonesian fiancee Febyanti at a maximum security prison in central Java. A small group of family and friends attended the ceremony.
According to Yahoo news,Michael Chan, Andrew's brother, told reporters outside the Nusakambangan island jail, where the executions will take place
The married couple met while Chan was imprisoned in a Bali jail. Febyanti.Febyanti and other family members will no longer be able to visit Chan starting from Tuesday afternoon, hours before his expected execution.
Chan is among a group of nine drug convicts, mostly foreigners, that are due to be executed after President Joko Widodo refused their clemency pleas.
