Indonesia has executed eight people for drug crimes despite pleas from around the world to spare their lives. The eight men shot to death by firing squad earlier today include two Australians, four Nigerians, a Brazilian and an Indonesian. A Filipina woman also scheduled to die was granted a stay of execution after a woman who allegedly recruited her to carry drugs reportedly turned herself in. Australia has deplored the executions and recalled its ambassador to Indonesia.
