about 40 people picketed in Jakarta, Indonesia, to demand the death sentence for Australian woman Schapelle Corby, in jail for drug trafficking in Bali. The protesters also condemned a security scare at the Indonesian embassy in Canberra. A powder sent to the embassy on June 2 sparked fears of an anthrax attack and was linked to outrage in Australia over Corby's 20 year jail term for trafficking marijuana.
Carrying signs reading "Corby, drug dealer, must die", the protesters outside the Australian embassy in Jakarta urged the Bali courts to reject her appeal and sentence her to death, as allowed under Indonesian law.
