Jambi District Court sentenced two defendants of 10 kilograms of methamphetamine.
"Imposing the death penalty to each defendant," said Chief Justice Dominggus Silaban as quoted by ANTARA, Tuesday, May 28.
The two narcotics defendants who were sentenced to death were Sukardi and Asril, while the other defendants Deri Saputra was sentenced to life imprisonment.
The three defendants were proven to have violated Article 114 paragraph 2 in conjunction with Article 132 paragraph (1) of the Republic of Indonesia Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics as demanded by the prosecutor.
The judge decided that in this case there was not a single act that eased the defendant.
The verdict of the panel of judges is higher than the demands of the public prosecutor who asked the panel of judges to impose life imprisonment.
