"Andrew has a passion in teaching prisoners cooking and hygiene skills," supporters posted on the Friends of Andrew Chan Facebook page just hours earlier on Thursday. A photo of chan cooking and several of his creations, including sushi and a filled pancake, were also posted. Chan was visited on Thursday at Kerobokan prison by his lawyers - who were unaware of the decision as they met. It follows revelations earlier this month that the other Australian on death row in Indonesia, Myuran Sukumaran, also had his clemency bid rejected.

Prasetyo has said the men will be shot and killed at the same time because they were involved in the same crime - attempting to smuggle more than eight kilograms of heroin from Bali to Australia.

Sukumaran and Chan both appealed for clemency on the grounds that they were rehabilitated, pointing to their good works inside Kerobokan prison in Bali, including running cooking, computer, art and bible classes. Another of the men's lawyers, Julian McMahon, said that Chan and Sukumaran were "sombre". He passed on a message from Sukumaran: "I'd like the president to take a closer look. We are trying really hard to make up for what we did.

"If you don't accept that people can change, no one has the incentive to change." "I believe they've changed, the both of them," Mr Mulya said. "I was really hoping they would be given clemency by the president because we can't see someone in black or white. During the 10 years [they have been in prison] so many changes have happened to them." Mr Mulya confirmed he will file a second judicial review next week for both Chan and Sukumaran in a bid to "seek justice" and save the lives of his clients. Mr Mulya met with Judge Sugeng Riyono, the head of the Denpasar District Court, on Thursday to discuss lodging the judicial review. However he said they were still facing technical difficulties because the two would need to appear in court in order for the review to be lodged. "The problem is we can't under any circumstances at this point in time bring the petitioners to court because that would take a lot of apparatus to guard them," Mr Mulya told reporters.

He said he was discussing with the judge how to arrange security and hoped to lodge the judicial review next week. The Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court in Indonesia are at odds over whether it is admissible to lodge more than one judicial review. Mr Mulya acknowledged the second judicial review would be difficult. "But I think to seek justice someone should have all the avenues available," he said. Loading Asked if this was an attempt to delay the execution, he said: "I am not talking about delaying the execution. What I am saying is that we are doing our maximum effort to seek justice." with Amilia Rosa
