Eight men convicted of drug smuggling were shot at Nusakambangan prison, among them Australians Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran. A ninth prisoner, Filipina Mary Jane Veloso, was spared at the last minute. The batch was one of several in 2015, after Indonesia ended a four-year pause on executions in 2013.[1]
