Schapelle Corby has told Indonesian authorities of being terrified by growing media attention ahead of her deportation next week.
Corby is living in a Bali villa with her brother Michael, who now wears a mask whenever he leaves the house.
The head of Bali’s prison division said parole officials will monitor the security around Corby’s Kuta home until she is sent back to Australia on May 27.
Surung Pasaribu met Corby inside the villa last night after her sister Mercedes told him her sister was unwell.
“Corby’s sister told us that Corby is scared to go out [of her] house,” Mr Surung told the ABC.
“She’s stressed, it’s getting worse.”
Mr Surung said it was “our job to monitor her” and that Corby was “very afraid to meet people”, according to her sister.
He said Corby was lying down with her face hidden behind a sarong when he arrived at the villa.
“She opened it to show her face a bit and then she covered it back. She said, ‘I am very afraid’,” he said.
“That’s all she expressed to me, ‘I feel afraid, to meet many people, including the media people.
“She said to me that outside her house cameras were installed to watch her — that’s scared her.”
Corby’s security being monitored
Mercedes Corby is also in Bali to bring her sister home. Schapelle Corby is being deported exactly 12 years after she was convicted for bringing more than four kilograms of marijuana into Bali.
Mercedes told Mr Surung that Schapelle is so stressed by the attention of photographers and camera operators that she is staying in her room and does not want to go outside.
“She doesn’t know who has been chasing her or who has been trying to interview her,” Mr Surung said.
“We’ve listened to her complaints and our office will take taking the necessary steps to monitor the security until the end of her parole period.”
