印尼将处死澳大利亚毒贩

Lawyers representing two Australians who are set to be executed this month in Indonesia on drug smuggling charges are preparing last ditch appeals to try to have their lives spared.

Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan, both in their 30s, are the ringleaders of a group of nine Australians who were arrested in 2005.

They were convicted of trying to smuggle more than 8 kilograms of heroin to Australia from the tourist island of Bali.

All nine were convicted of drug smuggling, but only Sukumaran and Chan were sentenced to death.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo has already rejected their appeals for clemency.

Todung Mulya Lubis is one of their defense lawyers.

"The President decides to reject the clemency without giving us any rational and reasons none whatsoever. In the name of justice, in the name of human rights we cannot accept that."

The lawyers plan to challenge Widodo's decision in an administrative court in Jakarta later this week.

Meanwhile, relatives of the two men have met with Indonesia's National Committee on Human Rights in another move to save the two men from execution.

Indonesia has extremely strict drug laws.

In January, Indonesian officials executed six drug convicts, including foreigners from Brazil and the Netherlands, brushing aside last-minute appeals by foreign leaders.
