Indonesia: una sentencia de muerte por un delito relacionado con drogas

Unas 3,000 personas en todo el mundo, como en el caso de Merri Utami en Indonesia, están a la espera de ejecuciones ordenadas por el Estado por delitos relacionados con drogas. Más información, en inglés, está disponible abajo.

Merri Utami was sentenced to death after airport authorities found drugs in her handbag.

On 29 July 2016, Merri waited to be led before a firing squad. She listened to the execution of four other people before her execution was halted at the last moment. Four years later, Merri remains in prison and her petition for clemency has gone unanswered by Indonesian President Joko Widodo

The death penalty for drug offences is unjust, ineffective, and a violation of international human rights law. It must be abolished.

Sign the petition and demand clemency for Merri.
