Sons Peter centre and John right now face the loss of their mother too if she gets the death penalty for their fathers murder . The lawyer for their two sons, Any Aryani, says even as she faces the death penalty, Ellis is making moves to protect her inheritance. Ms Any says Ellis is now stating her religion is Hindu, even though official documents say shes Muslim. Under family law, which closely follows religious custom in Indonesia, if a Muslim woman is convicted of her husbands murder, she loses her rights to benefit from it. If Noor thinks I killed, Ive been punished, but my inheritance rights remain, well thats not possible, Ms Any told AAP. We have prepared for that.
