Executive director of Migrant CARE Anis Hidayah said there were 420 Indonesian workers abroad who were facing the death penalty.
Of that number 99 workers had been given the death sentence and two have been executed, Anis said, as quoted by tribunnews.com.
At the current time, five Indonesian female domestic workers -- Satinah, Siti Zaenab, Tuti Tursilawati, Aminah and Darmawati -- are on death row in Saudi Arabia.
Anis said that the country could no longer effectively help the workers since the disbandment of the migrant workers task force early last year.
