Schapelle Corby, parole decision..
Feb 6^th, 2014 at 6:47am

Schapelle Corby will likely have to wait until Friday to learn whether her bid for release from a Bali prison will succeed.

Indonesia's Justice Minister Amir Syamsuddin confirmed on Wednesday he would consider the convicted drug smuggler's bid for parole within the next three days.

He said there were 1700 applications for parole before him and stressed the Australian's case would be treated the same as the others.

On Wednesday night he was more specific about the timing, telling reporters in Jakarta he would make his decision on Friday.

'I will finalise all on Friday,' Mr Syamsuddin said.

'All will be processed equally; no special treatment whatsoever.'

Mr Syamsuddin has already said publicly he can see no reason why Corby's parole bid should be rejected.

Her case was heard in Jakarta last week, but it's not known whether the parole board's recommendation to Mr Syamsuddin was in favour of parole.

If it's approved, Corby, 36, will serve her parole in the Kuta home of her sister Mercedes and her husband Wayan Widyartha.

This is the first time Shapelle seriously looks like getting parole, thats why .... you could always say nothing and move onto another topic.

Guilty or not-guilty, Corby should be released. Nine years for cannabis is ridiculous.

Her family, including her brother, are known to LE, so she's really been lucky.

Agree.
But what riles me, is the stuff up with the hash in her boogie board...they did not test it as to where it came from. And then, they burnt the evidence.
Too many stuff ups all along the way.
I don't believe she put it there, never have.
She has taking the rap for someone else.
Oh, and, a friend and her 15 yr old son, coming home from Queensland to Victoria, his boogie board went missing (some time in the same year as Corby's trial).....well, they eventually located it....coming back from Darwin.....now how is it that it went to Darwin in the first place? Because they are closer to Bali than any other place in Oz?

Makes me wonder, if a peodophile wants access to kids, he would become a priest, or a boy scout, or teacher in a home for boys etc.
If a drug peddlar wants to have access or peddle drugs, wouldn't it be easier, at that time, to then be a baggage handler?
I have read stories of 2 couples, that went to Bali for a holiday together, and one of the gents noticed his suitcase has a missing lock.
He found a bag of hash in his suitcase, he rang the Australian consulate, and they told him, not to report it to the Balinese police etc. Just flush it down the toilet, they told him.
Now, they have a service where you can glad wrap your bag.
Obviously there's a reason for that at airports when that service came in?

It is a high profile case, and I expect it will happen. Great opportunity for the media to cash in on this, of course.
