These are the foods Tangaraju (Appu) has requested from Changi Prison authorities in the week leading up to his execution. So far, they haven’t been able to find the sweets he asked for, but after 9 years, he tasted some of his favourite dishes.
Appu had initially told the family that he doesn’t want to go through the final photoshoot that the prison arranges before an execution, but yesterday, he gave in because a close family member said it would mean a lot to him to have some recent photos of his beloved boy. The last photo the family have of him is from when he was 19 years old.
Death row prisoners who get an execution notice are given a small amount of money to buy a treat for the others on death row, in the week leading up to their execution. Tangaraju used this money to get fish burgers, curry puffs and soft drinks for the others.
An ex-death row prisoner who was acquitted last year, after 7 years of incarceration, told me how he always felt dreadful eating or drinking anything that a fellow prisoner who was about to be executed got for them.
“How to swallow it, knowing that it is a gift from a man who will be hanged in a few days?” he asked me.
Appu is also allowed to use some money from his account to buy music CDs he wants to listen to in this last week, but he told the prison he’d rather have that money given to his family.
