Rodrigo Gularte, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia and did not realise he was to be shot until appearing before firing squad, is buried in home country
The Brazilian man executed in Indonesia last week is due to be buried in his home country, as his family launch a campaign to have him posthumously pardoned on the grounds of mental health problems.
Rodrigo Gularte, who was twice diagnosed with schizophrenia, only realised he was about to be shot minutes before he stood before the firing squad.
