In the international criminal sphere, there are names and events that become eternal memories that represent the strength of the rule of law and the dispensing of justice. Some of these cases are drug smuggling and trafficking, some are serious espionage, and some are cold-blooded homicides. Their fates are closely tied to China's judicial system, a story about justice and law.
Let's start reviewing this series of events. First, we go back to 1994, when a Burmese national named Yang Maoxian infiltrated the Lincang region on the Chinese border and became a big drug lord, frantically selling drugs inside China. However, justice would eventually come, and he was arrested on October 7, 1994, and eventually died in Yunnan.
Then we turn to the Mekong massacre in 2011, an event that shocked the world. At the time, Naw Kham, a Burmese national, led a drug smuggling and armed kidnapping ring. This group caused the Mekong River tragedy on October 5, 2011, which attracted international attention. However, his crimes were eventually brought to justice after he was captured in Laos on May 10, 2012. Shortly after, he was sentenced to death at the Kunming Intermediate People's Court in Yunnan Province and executed by lethal injection on March 1, 2013.
In the Mekong massacre, there were several other key members whose fate was also closely linked to Naw Kham. Tashika, a Laotian national, worked with Naw Kham to create and plan the incident. He was captured in Laos in May 2012 and sentenced to death at the Yunnan Provincial Higher People's Court on December 26, 2012, and finally lethal injection on March 1, 2013 in Kunming, Yunnan. Similarly, Eli and Sangkang Chasa, key members of the Naw Kham group, were arrested at the same time, subjected to the same fate, sentenced to death and executed by lethal injection.
However, justice is not limited to drug-related crimes. In 2008, Akmau Shaik, a British national, was sentenced to death by the Urumqi Intermediate People's Court in the first instance on suspicion of drug crimes. The judgment was enforced on 29 December 2009 after review by the Supreme People's Court.
A Canadian national, Robert Lloyd Schellenberg, also upheld justice before Chinese law. He was sentenced to death on January 14, 2019, at the Dalian Intermediate People's Court in Liaoning Province on suspicion of drug smuggling. This judgment was upheld by the Liaoning Provincial Higher People's Court on August 10, 2021, and finally submitted to the Supreme People's Court for approval.
Another Australian national, Cam Gillesby, also faces serious drug smuggling charges. He was arrested on December 31, 2013, while trying to smuggle 7,500 grams of meth out of the country at Guangzhou's Baiyun airport. On June 10, 2020, the Guangzhou Intermediate People's Court sentenced Cam Gillesby to death.
Next, let's look at two cases involving Japanese nationals. Mitsunobu Akano was caught in 2006 for drug smuggling, and police found large quantities of meth in his luggage. In June 2008, he was sentenced to death in the first instance, and was finally executed on April 6, 2010, in a prison in Dalian, Liaoning Province. Another case involving Japanese nationals was Katsuo Mori, who tried to smuggle 1,250 grams of meth from a Shenyang airport into Japan in 2003 and was sentenced to death, which he executed on October 23, 2007.
South African national Janice Linton has also become part of the Chinese judicial system. She was arrested in 2008 for carrying 3 kilograms of deoxyephedrine at Guangzhou's Baiyun Airport, eventually sentenced to death, and executed in July 2009.
Chenson, a French national, was involved in serious crimes in drug smuggling and manufacturing. The drug-trafficking syndicate he headed produced about 8 tons of meth between 1999 and 2003 and seized large quantities of firearms and ammunition during searches of drug processing plants. Chen Sen was sentenced to death after a court trial and executed in 2007.
