China Sentences Canadian Man To Death For Drug Smuggling by Domistar5(f): 7:17pm On Jan 14, 2019 |
A court in China has sentenced a Canadian to death for drug smuggling in a ruling which will worsen a diplomatic row between the two countries. Robert Lloyd Schellenberg was originally given a 15- year jail term in 2018 but after an appeal the court said the sentence was too lenient. Monday's ruling comes weeks after Canada arrested Meng Wanzhou, a top official at Chinese telecoms giant Huawei, on a request from the US. Canada condemned the latest ruling. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said: "It is of extreme concern to us as a government, as it should be to all our international friends and allies, that China has chosen to begin to arbitrarily apply the death penalty, as in this case facing a Canadian." China was angered by the arrest of Ms Meng, 46, the daughter of Huawei's founder, and the case has soured its relations with both Canada and the US. She was granted bail in December. China has since detained two Canadian nationals, accusing them of endangering national security.

Lol I like how they value the life of even a single citizen. Unlike this shïthole of a country filled with stupid leaders. When a citizen of theirs dies in another man's land or is being tried for going against law and would face serious consequences wether deserving or not e nor cosign them. Bunch of impotent cows.
