Two British citizens imprisoned on drug charges in Bali are going to be repatriated within hours in the wake of an agreement between the two nations, an Indonesian government minister has said.

Lindsay Sandiford, 69, was arrested in 2012 and had been on death row for drug offences. Shahab Shahabadi, 35, has been serving a life sentence since 2014.
