UK officials: China sets execution date for Briton

46 mins ago

LONDON – China plans to execute a British man convicted of drug smuggling before the end of the year, officials said Monday, ignoring a personal appeal from Prime Minister Gordon Brown to spare the man's life.

Britain's Foreign Office said that Chinese authorities have told them they plan to execute Akmal Shaikh, a 53-year-old man whose supporters say has mental health problems and was duped into carrying drugs into China.

"We are alarmed and deeply concerned at this news," the Foreign Office said in a statement. "We will be using the next few days to renew and intensify our appeal to the Chinese authorities for clemency."

The office added that mental health concerns seemed to have had no bearing on the final decision to execute Shaikh, despite repeated requests from his lawyer and British officials to have him evaluated for mental illness.

Shaikh, a small business owner from north London, was sentenced to death on Oct. 29, 2008, after being convicted of taking a suitcase containing almost 9 pounds (4 kilograms) of heroin into the far western Chinese city of Urumqi.

Human rights group Reprieve, which has lobbied to save his life, said the father of five has "a lifelong history of very strange behavior" and seems to have been tricked into the smuggling run.

A call seeking comment from China's Foreign Ministry was not immediately returned late Monday, but China has defended the integrity of the case.

If the man is of unstable mind or have bizzare mental condition, then apparently he was used by syndicates. however the case must be viewed objectively with proper phyciatric analysis to verify his state of mind and mental condition.

But to gloat over the fact that PRC will to execute a person, just because he is a British..that is debased argument of the lowest kind.

politicians like to score leverage at every opportunity...basically it's the failure of the human society...whenever a human has to kill a fellow human, it's already a big big mistake of our human society...sad. nobody wins. it's our loss....

The Chinese PRC has always stood up against intruding White Trashs from the West for past thousands of years. God has never retire since he (God) created a bunch of angry people, the Anglo Saxons in 1066, that go around causing problems to others on this peaceful earth.

These Angry People go about Playing God and take over God's role and now they played God again to tell you about climate problem and carbon dioxide become the Saturn, the evil substance that cause climate change. They want you to use 'Saturn' to trade with them (Emission Trading Scheme- whatever they want to call it)

When we are OK with using horses for transportations they Played God to give you engines (some run on steel tracks that need to clear thousands of hectres of land to put the tracks on) that give out black smokes which churned out massive volume of carbon dioxides and other man-made impurities. When we are Ok with using candles at night they give you electricity that churned out more carbon dioxides at 24/7 and the whole day.

GOD must be crazy or SATAN must be mad to churn out all these misfits who are out to destroy this good earth....

Please get off your high horse lest you fall & break your neck. Gloating is secondary to the fact this UK keling tried to smuggle a huge quantity of heroin. It's called taking responsibility & being accountable for one's action, something that angmo cheehongs only talk about yet do nothing for.

As usual kelings're full of shit, no matter where they're brought up in. Claiming diminished responsibility due to mental problems when prior to being caught smuggling, he had NO actual history of it. This is the bulls--t defense the uk angmo scums're also pushing to save this black ass while scoring political points & making the upholders of chinese law look bad.

Shoot the bugger post-haste, I'd say.

Beijing unlike some countries need not suck up to anyone. They are, as Obama puts it, the other economic superpower in the world.

Also, the US's status as military superpower is a misnomer. US is stuck in Iraq and Afghanistan and is in no position to get into any conflicts. So unless we are talking about nuclear weapons and nuclear destruction, US's military power is limited.

The mental illness defense is the only defense the joker has. He was caught with the drugs.

I am willing to pay ticket to watch PRC firing squad shoot this British.

It will beat anything I had ever watched, football boxing dog-fight F1 race etc.

Bravo PRC to execute British, UK gave up!

British drug seller will die tomorrow.

UK says helping family of China death row inmate AFP/HO/Reprieve/File – Handout file photo provided by legal aid group Reprieve shows Akmal Shaikh, the British national facing …
45 mins ago

BEIJING (AFP) – British consular officials were in China's far-western Xinjiang region on Monday to assist the family of Akmal Shaikh, a British man set to be executed for drug trafficking.

Shaikh, a 53-year-old father-of-three who supporters say suffers from bipolar disorder, faces execution on Tuesday after losing his final appeal in China's Supreme Court, the British government and his legal team say.

"We have consular staff in Urumqi (the capital of Xinjiang). They are there to assist the Shaikh family," embassy spokesman David Shaw told AFP.

The London-based legal aid group Reprieve said Sunday that Shaikh's two cousins had gone to Urumqi in a last-ditch bid for clemency.

"The Shaikh brothers are... hoping to visit Akmal on Monday morning," the charity said in a statement. "This will... be the first time he will have had direct contact with a family member for two years."

Britain opposes the death penalty and Prime Minister Gordon Brown has repeatedly raised Shaikh's case with China's leaders and appealed for clemency.

The two cousins were also due to deliver a plea of mercy to Chinese President Hu Jintao and the National People's Congress, which receives petitions for pardon or clemency, Reprieve said.

"We plead for his life," Soohail Shaikh, one of the cousins, said in the petition.

The family asked that "a full mental health evaluation be conducted to assess the impact of his mental illness, and that recognition be made that he is not as culpable as those who might, under Chinese law, be eligible for the death penalty."

If the death penalty is carried out, Shaikh would become the first national from a European Union country to be executed in China in 50 years, Reprieve said.

China confirms Briton's execution


By Ng Han Guan ASSOCIATED PRESS

URUMQI, China (AP) -- China brushed aside international appeals Tuesday and executed a British drug smuggler who relatives say was mentally unstable and unwittingly lured into crime.

Britain's prime minister quickly criticized the execution -- China's first of a European citizen in nearly 60 years.

"I condemn the execution of Akmal Shaikh in the strongest terms, and am appalled and disappointed that our persistent requests for clemency have not been granted. I am particularly concerned that no mental health assessment was undertaken," Prime Minister Gordon Brown said in a statement issued by the Foreign Office.

The press office of the Xinjiang region where Shaikh had been held confirmed the execution in a faxed statement.

Shaikh, 53, first learned he was about to be executed Monday from his visiting cousins, who made a last-minute plea for his life. They say he is mentally unstable and was lured to China from a life on the street in Poland by men playing on his dreams to record a pop song for world peace.

Brown had spoken personally to China's prime minister about his case. Foreign Secretary David Miliband also condemned the execution and said there were unanswered questions about the trial.

"I also deeply regret the fact that our specific concerns about the individual in this case were not taken into consideration ... These included mental health issues, and inadequate professional interpretation during the trial," Miliband said in a statement.

China defended the case and criticized Brown's comments, saying drug smuggling was a serious crime.

"We express our strong dissatisfaction and opposition to the British accusation," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu told a regular news conference.

Jiang said she hoped the case did not harm bilateral relations, and called on London not to create any "obstacles" to better ties.

Shaikh was arrested in 2007 for carrying a suitcase with almost 9 pounds (4 kilograms) of heroin into China on a flight from Tajikistan. He told Chinese officials he didn't know about the drugs and that the suitcase wasn't his, according to Reprieve, a London-based prisoner advocacy group that is helping with his case.

He was convicted in 2008 after a half-hour trial.

The official Xinhua News Agency quoted China's Supreme Court as saying Tuesday that although officials from the British Embassy and a British aid organization called for a mental health examination for Shaikh, "the documents they provided could not prove he had a mental disorder nor did members of his family have a history of mental disease."

"There is no reason to cast doubt on Akmal Shaikh's mental status," the Supreme Court was quoted as saying.

Xinhua said Shaikh was put to death by lethal injection. China, which executes more people than any other country, is increasingly doing so by lethal injection, although some death sentences are still carried out by a shot in the head.

The Beijing-based lawyer for Shaikh's death sentence review, Zhang Qingsong, said Tuesday he never got to meet with Shaikh despite asking the judge and the detention center for access. He said China's highest court never evaluated Shaikh's mental status.

According to Reprieve, the last European executed in China was Antonio Riva, an Italian pilot who was shot by a firing squad in 1951 after being convicted of involvement in what China said was a plot to assassinate Mao Zedong and other high-ranking communist officials.

"The death of Akmal Shaikh is a sad indictment of today's world, and particularly of China's legal system. ... We at Reprieve are sickened by what we have seen during our work on this case," said Sally Rowen, legal director of Reprieve's death penalty team.

Reprieve issued a statement from Shaikh's family members saying they expressed "their grief at the Chinese decision to refuse mercy."

Associated Press reporters Alexa Olesen and Cara Anna in Beijing contributed to this story.
