Mary Jane coming home tomorrow
The Philippine Star
|December 17, 2024
Filipina death row convict Mary Jane Veloso is set to return to the Philippines tomorrow, Dec. 18, after the government signed an agreement with Indonesia to repatriate her.
Veloso was transferred on Sunday to the Indonesian capital Jakarta from a women's prison in Yogyakarta province.
From there, she will be flown back to the Philippines early Wednesday morning, Indonesia's Deputy Coordinator of Immigration and Corrections Nyoman Gede Surya Mataram confirmed.
Department of Foreign Affairs Undersecretary Eduardo Jose de Vega said personnel from the DFA, Bureau of Corrections and the National Bureau of Investigation were set to arrive in Jakarta last night for the processing of Veloso's turnover.
He added the Philippines would shoulder all costs for Veloso’s repatriation.
Veloso will leave Jakarta at 12:50 a.m. tomorrow and arrive in Manila at 6 a.m., according to DFA Undersecretary Ma. Theresa Lazaro.
In a statement on Sunday, Veloso’s family said the DFA canceled their visit to their daughter in Yogyakarta due to her transfer to another facility for the processing of her return to the Philippines.
