“[She is] a convict whose parole was granted, but it was given under certain conditions, one of which is she … does not create restlessness within the society.”

After being knocked back for a meeting with Mr Amir, the Corby family submitted a four-page letter asking him to reconsider.

“Whatever letter was submitted, Corby must realise that the coverage about her has become a really big thing,” Mr Amir said.

“It would be good if she realised, and her own family realised, that they should not let [Bali's parole board] Bapas conclude that the condition to revoke the parole has been fulfilled because there is restlessness.”

The rebuff comes on top of a similar comment by Ketut Artha, the head of Bapas.

Mr Ketut has said he feels his job is “at stake” if he allows the interview to go ahead.

However, the family has refused to stop lobbying as Corby remained late on Friday holed up in a Bali villa compound with a crew from the Seven Network's Sunday Night program.

It is understood they would consent to having an Indonesian government representative in the room with them during the interview, and that Corby would try to steer away from any content that could be deemed to cause “restlessness”.
