Bali duo verdict on April 6

An Indonesian court hearing the appeals of two Australian death row convicts will announce a verdict on April 6, one of the judges determining the case says.

Bali Nine members Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan are among a group of 10 prisoners, mostly foreigners, facing imminent execution for drug offences after president Joko Widodo rejected their pleas for clemency.

ā€œBoth sides have been given ample opportunity to present evidence and testimony,ā€ judge Ujang Abdullah told the court.

ā€œThe [panel of three] judges will decide on the case after studying the evidence submitted.

ā€œThe court is adjourned until Monday April 6 when the judges will read out the verdict [in both cases].ā€

More to come.
