Indonesia will execute at least two convicts this year, including foreigners, the attorney general has said.

H.M. Prasetyo did not elaborate upon the crimes of which they were convicted, but said they would be executed by firing squad soon.

Prasetyo told reporters: "The implementation of the executions will be carried out after the (Eid al-Fitr) holiday period that has just ended.

"There are more than two people, and there are foreigners. There are protests but we will still carry out the executions".

It is unknown whether Lindsay Sandiford is among those.

Last year Indonesia executed 14 people - mostly drug traffickers - and despite growing international condemnation, have vowed to increase that number.
