Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran's lawyer, Todung Mulya Lubis, sent two heartbreaking tweets shortly after the two men were executed in Indonesia overnight.
At 4am AEST – approximately 25 minutes after the executions were carried out – he tweeted, "I failed. I lost."
I failed. I lost.
Two minutes later, at the time the men were declared dead, he tweeted, "I am sorry."
I am sorry
The tweets were met with an outpouring of support for Todung Mulya Lubis, with many praising his efforts.
