Zhuhai court sentences 4 drug dealers to death
A COURT in Zhuhai City in south China’s Guangdong Province sentenced four drug dealers to death yesterday.
Two were sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve, Zhuhai City’s Intermediate People’s Court announced.
Thirteen others from the same drug gang, which had sold about 5 kilograms of drugs including methamphetamine, were given life sentences or varying prison terms.
Judge Hou Jingjing said more types of drugs were available on the black market, and more people were getting involved in drugs.
On the same day in Beijing, a 22-year-old man was sentenced to death with a two-year probation for transporting 2kg of methamphetamine.
The young man was caught at a Beijing railway station in November 2015 after alighting from a train from Guangzhou in Guangdong Province.
In Xuzhou City in east China’s Jiangsu Province, three out of the eight members of a drug gang were sentenced to death.
It was the biggest drug case ever seen in Xuzhou, involving more than 29kg of methamphetamine and ketamine, the city’s intermediate people’s court said.
