Filipino boxing champion Manny Pacquiao visited death row at Wirogunan jail in Yogyakarta, Friday, to show his support for prisoner, and fellow Philipine, Mary Jane Veloso. Accompanied by his wife Jinkee, Pacquiao prayed with Veloso, who is currently on death row for drug traffiking after she was caught allegedly smuggling 2.6 kg (5.7lbs) of heroin into Indonesia. After taking photos, the two exchanged gifts, with Veloso giving the boxer a scarf and Pacquiao handing her money. Pacquiao is campaigning to save the prisoner, who managed to win a last-minute reprieve from execution in April. The mother of two is now appealing to be spared from death penalty. Pacquiao is later set to meet lawmakers in Jakarta to discuss Veloso's case.
