00:00The convicted death row convict in Indonesia, Mary Jane Veloso, is happy to be able to return here after more than a decade in prison.
00:09Her relatives are urging her not to be imprisoned for her return to the country.
00:15The government's response to the report of Ivan Myrina.
00:21This is from Mary Jane Veloso in Yogyakarta Women's Penitentiary in Indonesia today.
00:27Mary Jane is busy rehearsing for their Christmas performance.
00:31In a statement read by the prison warden, Mary Jane said that she is happy to have the opportunity to return and be with her family in the Philippines.
00:41She is also thankful to everyone who is helping her to return.
00:46Mary Jane's daughter, Darian, is excited to be able to be with her mother again.
00:50She was only two years old when Mary Jane became pregnant.
00:53We will go there so that we can pay for what she lost.
00:59Mary Jane's parents are preparing her room.
01:02But for now, Mary Jane is not happy with her return home in Nueva Ecija.
01:07Because of her sentence of death penalty in Indonesia, she will be in prison for the rest of her life.
01:14My request to the President is that when my daughter returns home, he will not imprison her.
01:21She has been in Indonesia for a long time.
01:24I hope that they will let my daughter return home.
01:31Indonesia itself said that it's time for Mary Jane to return to the Philippines.
01:35It's in the hands of President Bongbong Marcos if he will give her executive clemency.
01:40We will see. We will see.
01:41This is the first time this has happened.
01:43So everything is on the table.
01:46According to the Foreign Affairs and Justice Department,
01:49the Philippines is obligated to comply with the conditions that Indonesia can give.
01:53We need to give respect to the judgment made by the Indonesian courts against her.
02:02We cannot ignore that.
02:05But Mary Jane's lawyer insisted that Indonesia has no power anymore.
02:09It's time for her to return home.
02:11Marrying Mary Jane in Indonesia is done.
02:14Legally.
02:15How is that? There is no death penalty.
02:17So the range of possibilities is,
02:19the next one could be a 40-year-perpetual reclusion.
02:25Or maybe what we want and push for is absolute pardon.
02:31She will not be imprisoned for even a second.
