An Italian national is risking the firing squad for drug charges in Indonesia.
Juri Angione, 25, was arrested in December 2003 at Bali's Ngurah Rai airport when police found over 4 kilograms of cocaine in his luggage.
He was on a flight from San Paulo in Brazil that stopped over in Bangkok. Angione, a Tuscan goldsmith, recognised the bag in which the drugs were found as his own, but denied knowledge of the cocaine.
On June 10 however the prosecution requested the death penalty for him.
