[속보] 중국, 마약 밀수 캐나다인 사형 선고

BEIJING — China’s diplomatic clash with Canada escalated sharply on Monday, when a Canadian man was sentenced to death for drug smuggling after a Chinese court overrode his plea of innocence at a retrial that was swiftly called after tensions erupted between the two countries.
The court in northeast China announced the death penalty against the Canadian, Robert Lloyd Schellenberg, after a retrial that lasted one day, and g에이브이e no indication that his sentence might be reduced to a prison sentence. Mr. Schellenberg’s fate will now become a volatile factor in diplomacy between Beijing and Ottawa after Canadian authorities arrested a Chinese tech executive last month.
A terse official statement from the Dalian Intermediate People’s Court said that it had “convicted Schellenberg of smuggling drugs and sentenced him to death.”
Last month a court ordered Mr. Schellenberg to be retried after he appealed a 15-year prison sentence for smuggling methamphetamines. But against a backdrop of sharply increased tensions between China and Canada, the court sided with prosecutors who called for a stiffer sentence at a new trial.
