Sir Richard Branson and activists have called on authorities to spare Saridewi Djamani.
Singapore is scheduled to execute a woman for the first time in almost 20 years, human rights advocates say.She will be the second drug convict to be executed in three days, after fellow Singaporean Mohd Aziz bin Hussain, and the 15th since March 2022.
Singapore's Central Narcotics Bureau declined to comment on Djamani's case when contacted by the BBC. "Small-scale drug traffickers need help, as most are bullied due to their circumstances," Mr Branson said on Twitter.Saridewi is one of two women on death row in Singapore, according to the Transformative Justice Collective, a Singapore-based human rights group.
While she did not deny selling drugs such as heroin and methamphetamine from her flat, she downplayed the scale of those activities, noted judge See Kee Oon.
