    Bali Nine request defence funding
    May 28, 2005
    From: AAP

    THE Bali Nine have appealed to the Australian government for financial help to fund their defence.

    Attorney-General Philip Ruddock said an application had been made for financial aid by the group of nine Australians facing drug smuggling charges in Indonesia.
    Mr Ruddock would not say how much the nine wanted or how much they would receive if their applications were successful.

    With the cost of defending Schapelle Corby estimated between $50,000 and $100,000, it is believed the amount would be considerable.
