Thomas Parker was arrested in Indonesia earlier this year after police say they saw him acting suspiciously when having a package delivered.

He’s been in an Indonesian jail since then and is being charged with the importation, possession and trafficking of drugs.

Parker was yesterday (6 March) pictured in an orange prison jumpsuit alongside other inmates who had been arrested on drug related charges.

He would be woken in the middle of the night and taken to his place of execution, where a firing squad would shoot him to death, though some of their guns would be loaded with blanks instead of bullets.

Anyone who survives the firing squad’s bullets is executed with a shot to the head.

Police said that Parker was acting ‘suspiciously’ as he collected a package from a man on a motorbike on 21 January.

When officers approached the Brit he allegedly tried to throw away the package in a panic and attempted to flee the scene.

The package contained a light brown powder, which ended up being identified as MDMA, while officers tracked the Brit to his Bali holiday villa and arrested him outside it.

While police claim that Parker was acting ‘suspiciously’ when he was receiving the package of MDMA, the 32-year-old had already been under surveillance as police believe him to be part of an international drug smuggling ring that operates out of Hungary.

Parker had been monitored after entering Indonesia from Thailand and Brigadier General Rudy Ahmad Sudrajat of the Bali Province National Narcotics Agency claimed that the Brit was acting on instructions to pick up drugs in Bali.

“After conducting a search and arrest, Thomas and the evidence were taken to the Bali Province National Narcotics Agency office for investigation,” the official said.

“He was ordered by his boss to pick up a package in Bali after flying from Thailand.

“The parcel contained MDMA which is illegal and punishable by death.”

Indonesia has very harsh laws surrounding drugs and the last 19 people the country executed had been convicted of drug trafficking.

However, people spend a long time on death row and the country has not executed anyone since 2016.
