HIS EXCELLENCY JOKO WIDODO 

PRESIDENT OF INDONESIA

MERDEKA PALACE  

Subject:  R. A. No. 9285: Institutionalize the use of an Alternative Dispute Resolution System under existing rights of the Indigenous Grandfather Tribe, the Sovereignty of Kingdom Filipina Hacienda, Section 28; Grant of Interim Measure of Protection Provision-  The Arbitral Tribunal is deemed constituted when the sole arbitrator or the third Arbitrator has been empowered  by the Grandfather Tribe, Kingdom Filipina Hacienda, the Undersigned hereof; 

Your Honour President Joko Widodo, 

Greetings from Kingdom Filipina Hacienda! 

Proof beyond reasonable doubt 

I am making an appeal for clemency on behalf of Mary Jane Veloso on the grounds of the witness statement that the defendant had pleaded innocent; that she did not hide the drugs on the suitcase that the brother of the recruiter’s boyfriend had given it to her. Who is the real mastermind behind the crime? Was she aware of the luggage that she carried was drug? Did she have an intention to commit a crime? Circumstantial evidence can be used on the basis provided that: 1) there is more than one circumstance. 2) the facts from which the inferences are derived are proven; and 3) the combination of all circumstances is such as to produce a conviction beyond reasonable doubt.
The circumstances did not prove that the chain of events from the moment she was handed the suitcase until she reached Indonesian airport that she willingly participated in the drug mule. There is a big question mark in this chain of events. The circumstances proved should constitute an unbroken chain which leads to only one fair and reasonable conclusion, to the exclusion of all others, is the guilty person. What about the recruiter? The boyfriend?  The brother who had given the suitcase?
Unless proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt this case should be acquitted by any prosecuting judge. Proof beyond reasonable doubt does not mean the degree of proof excluding the possibility of error and producing absolute certainty. Only moral certainty or “that degree of proof which produces conviction in an unprejudiced mind” is required.

No admission of guilt until last hours of nearby execution

The prosecution needs a judicial review that the evidence is not water tight enough to convict the Filipina domestic helper. Until now in her nearing death sentence the mother of two children never pleaded guilty, a proof of innocence that she is a victim of human trafficking.

International Law on Human Rights

1. The right to a fair trial must be guaranteed to foreigners of the host countries. A duty of care must be securely guaranteed to all foreign nationals for protection and security.2. The rights of the children were also breached when Veloso’s two children who were already in Indonesia were not able to see their mother as they were late just a few hours.  On humanitarian grounds, the Indonesian government must be seen to be human. She is a mother and by executing her, the two young children will be orphaned, a social cancer that could be avoided. Children who are deprived of maternal love are going to commit crimes due to the absence of parental love and care. Under the International Human Rights Law it is guaranteed that the welfare of the children is paramount in any legal proceeding. This is also found in the United Nations of Rights of a Child.3. Right to a Family- Mary Jane Veloso’s rights are also violated on the ground that she made sacrifices to work in Hongkong and Malaysia as a domestic helper, instead she had been victimised by evil gang. Her right to a family is being violated by convicting her to death penalty. This is double injustice being done to an innocent mother who is naive and uneducated.

Diplomatic Relations and Ancient Brotherhood.

Historically our forefathers came from Indonesia. We have the same bloodline the Maharlikan people. Our language, culture and origins are similar. Poverty and corruption is rampant in the current Maharlika (Philippines) and due to this a social cancer has erupted. Filipinos go overseas to work as servants to foreign land and many are victims of rape and drug mules.
I am making this appeal that as we are one family of the same heritage to please use the power to order clemency provided by the Indonesian Constitution. The Maharlikan people implore your Honor to acquit the innocent mother of two children. This will enhance your good image on the war on drugs is just and acceptable in the international arena of law. 

May Allah shower Mercy upon you. Salamat.  

Yours Sincerely, 

   (SIGNED)Her Royal Highness Salvacion Legaspi y Espiritu Santo
