"They bonded together," she said. "Brotherhood. They sang one song after another. Praising God. They sang a few songs together, like in a choir.

 Many became hysterical while others, including the spiritual advisers, offered consolation. But by the time the coffins arrived for identification and official handover, a measure of calm had returned and the process went smoothly. Father Charles Burrows, who provided spiritual guidance to condemned Brazilian man Rodrigo Gularte, said the men met their fate without blindfolds, staring straight ahead.

This was the first time I witnessed someone so excited to meet their God. Pastor Karina de Vega "Everyone was looking forward, it seems everyone accepted their fate," Father Burrows said. 
  
 He said it was difficult because Gularte, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was a teenager, was mentally ill. Gularte talked to animals and was afraid of electromagnetic waves from satellites watching him above his prison on the island of Nusakambangan. In his deluded state, he believed Indonesia had abolished capital punishment and established a prisoner extradition agreement with Brazil, which meant he could go home next year. "We didn't think [the execution] would happen," Father Burrows said. "It is finished. It's all done." Pastor Tuhu Santoso led the prison church Mass in Besi prison on the island before the condemned prisoners were put in isolation on Saturday. 
  
 Nigerian Raheem Agbaje Salami, who was known as Stefanus, described how Jesus had saved him. Chan played the guitar and read a verse from the Bible stating everything that happened was God's will. Not a single feather would fall off a sparrow, without God permitting it, Chan read. Chan and Sukumaran told Pastor Tuhu they still believed in miracles and that God would save them but, if they were executed, it was part of God's plan. The pair were initially told they could not be accompanied by their choice of religious counsellor in their final hours. In an SMS, an angry Michael Chan, Andrew's brother, told Fairfax Media: "Last bit of dignity denied." 
  
 However, Indonesian authorities changed their minds at the last moment and Christie Buckingham, a senior pastor at Bayside Church, and David Soper, an old friend of the Chan family, were able to be with the men until the final minutes. Fairfax Media understands both men died quickly. A source said all eight prisoners died after being shot in the heart. It was not necessary for the commander to shoot anyone in the head, as is the case if prisoners don't die after 10 minutes. One of the condemned men, Nigerian gospel singer Okwudili Ayotanze, was confident right until the end that he was going to be taken off the execution list due to his pending case in the Administrative Court. Friends and those who knew him for more than 10 years in prison were dismayed his case had been left to the 11h hour. 
  
 They believed that, if the court process had started earlier, Ayotanze's life could have been saved. A friend close to Ayotanze said he never stopped helping other prisoners. He would make sure everyone would come out of their cells and attend Mass. "He was basically the Nigerian version of Andrew Chan," he said. "He was a good person. I will really feel the loss." The Chan and Sukumaran families released a statement on Wednesday morning. 
  
 "Today we lost Myuran and Andrew," the families said. "Our sons, our brothers. In the 10 years since they were arrested, they did all they could to make amends, helping many others." The family said they asked for mercy, but there was none. "They were immensely grateful for all the support they received. We too, will be forever grateful." Brin Sukumaran, Myuran's sister, posted a tribute on Facebook at midnight. 
  
 "Bless the lord o my soul. Myu likes this song. He sang it today. Please sing it for him," she wrote. ​Ambulances containing eight coffins left Nusakambangan and are on the 12-hour journey to Jakarta. Australia's consul-general is required to identify the bodies of the Australians, Foreign Affairs Minister Julie Bishop said. The bodies of Chan and Sukumaran will then be returned to Australia, most likely on Friday. ||||| Media playback is unsupported on your device Media caption Tony Abbott: "Australia deeply, deeply regrets these executions in Indonesia" 
  
 Australia has recalled its ambassador from Indonesia after two Australian men were executed for drug smuggling. 
  
 Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran were among eight people from several countries executed by firing squad in the early hours of Wednesday on the prison island of Nusakambangan. 
  
 Brazil's government also expressed its "deep dismay" at the execution of one of its citizens, Rodrigo Gularte. 
  
 But the execution of a Philippine woman was called off at the last minute. 
  
 Mary Jane Fiesta Veloso was spared after Philippines officials said a woman she had accused of planting drugs on her was in police custody.

 The families of the condemned prisoners paid them final, emotional visits on Tuesday afternoon before the sentences were carried out. 
  
 All eight refused offers of blindfolds and were singing together in their final moments, a pastor present at the execution told the Sydney Morning Herald. 
  
 Hours after the executions, ambulances left the prison island, taking the prisoners' bodies to their chosen funeral sites in Indonesia or their home countries.

 Australia had mounted a lengthy diplomatic campaign to save Chan and Sukumaran, convicted in 2006 of being the ringleaders of a group of Australian heroin traffickers known as the Bali Nine. 
  
 Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said on Tuesday that the executions were "cruel and unnecessary", adding that Chan and Sukumaran had been "fully rehabilitated" while in prison. 
  
 "We respect Indonesia's sovereignty but we do deplore what's been done and this cannot be simply business as usual," he said.

 This is the first time Australia has recalled an ambassador from Indonesia, and its first-ever recall over the execution of one of its citizens abroad. 
  
 Indonesian Attorney General Muhammad Prasetyo defended the executions, saying his country was fighting a "war" on drugs. 
  
 Indonesia is an important country to Australia, the BBC's Jon Donnison says, with the two working closely together on asylum seekers and terrorism issues.

 Joko Widodo, Indonesia's president, has publicly declared a war on drugs and said he will refuse all clemency applications from convicted drug traffickers - a stance that could prove legally problematic given that the very point of a presidential clemency is to evaluate each individual on a case-by-case basis. 
  
 But that will be little comfort to the families of the eight people who were executed. 
  
 Indonesia risks souring relations with other nations over its hardline approach, as it has already with Australia, home of two of the smugglers. But Indonesia's new president appears willing to take the risk, even if it means tarnishing his own reputation as a liberal, reform-minded leader.

 Brazil's government later issued a statement saying the execution of Gularte marked "a serious event in the relations between the two countries". 
  
 Gularte's family had said he had schizophrenia and should not have been on death row. 
  
 Gularte was the second Brazilian to be executed for drug smuggling in Indonesia in four months. Marco Archer Cardoso Moreira was killed by firing squad at Nusakambangan in January, prompting Brazil to recall its ambassador.

 British drug smuggler Lindsay Sandiford, who is on death row in Indonesia, called the execution of fellow inmates "senseless and brutal". Her lawyer said she could be among the next to be executed. 
  
 But there was delight on Monday for the family of Philippine woman Veloso, after her execution was called off at the last minute following a request by the Philippine president. 
  
 Her mother described the reprieve as a "miracle". 
  
 "We are so happy, I can't believe it. I can't believe my child will live," Celia Veloso told Philippine radio station DZMM. 
  
 Sonny Coloma, a spokesman for the Philippine president, told the BBC he was "relieved and thankful" but stressed "the death sentence on her has not been lifted".

 A Frenchman also convicted of drug offences, Serge Areski Atlaoui, was originally due to be executed with the group but has an appeal outstanding. 
  
 The French government said it "reiterates its opposition to the death sentence, in all cases and all circumstances". 
  
 Indonesia has some of the toughest drug laws in the world and ended a four-year moratorium on executions in 2013. 
  
 It says it takes a hard line because of the country's own drugs problem - 33 Indonesians die every day as a result of drugs, according to Indonesia's National Narcotics Agency. |||||

"Breathtaking" is probably not a word you'd usually associate with the executions of eight people, but that's exactly how a pastor describes the scene in Indonesia just after midnight local time. Seven foreigners and a local man refused blindfolds as they stood in front of a firing squad over drug-smuggling convictions and broke out into a chorus of "Amazing Grace" while staring down their executioners. A second song, "Bless the Lord O My Soul," began but was cut short by gunfire, the Sydney Morning Herald reports. "They were praising their God," says a pastor who witnessed the executions, adding it was the most beautiful experience of her life: "It was breathtaking. This was the first time I witnessed someone so excited to meet their God." Outside, family members, many hoping for a last-minute stay, lit candles and recited the Lord's Prayer as they watched cars carry the inmates to the execution site. At the sound of gunshots, many became inconsolable, though spiritual advisers were on hand. A source tells the Herald all eight prisoners were shot in the heart and none in the head, which is required if an inmate isn't dead after 10 minutes. Their bodies have been transferred to Jakarta, and those of Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan, members of the so-called Bali Nine, will be returned to Australia. "We respect Indonesia's sovereignty but we do deplore what's been done, and this cannot be simply business as usual," Prime Minister Tony Abbott says, per the BBC, which notes Australia has yanked its ambassador from Indonesia.
