BBC News - Death sentence in China for South Africa drug smuggler: "Chinese court has confirmed the death sentence of a 35-year-old South African woman convicted of drug smuggling, reports the Xinhua news agency.
In July 2009, Janice Bronwyn Linden was found guilty of trying to smuggle 3kg of methamphetamine through Guangzhou airport in November 2008.
In denying her appeal, the Higher Court in Guangdong province said Linden would not be allowed leniency.
The Supreme Court must now approve the ruling before Linden is put to death.
In China, people convicted of smuggling, selling, transporting or producing more than 50g of methamphetamine or heroine can be sentenced to death, Xinhua says."
