China's Criminal Law stipulates that the trafficking of more than 50 grams of heroin is punishable by death.

He had a 15 minute evaluation to say that he was Bi Polar or Schizophrenic, smells of desperation as any diagnosis would take much longer, taken from

Though he has never been assessed by a psychiatrist, Foreign Office officials were eventually allowed to spend 15 minutes with Shaikh. From their description of Shaikh's behaviour, Dr Peter Schaapveld, a London-based consultant clinical and forensic psychologist, compiled a medical report in which he was able to deduce with "99% certainty" that he was suffering from a mental disorder that could either be bipolar or schizophrenia.

He had no medical history of mental illness and they had over 2 years to provide any records to prove otherwise.

Yet we have heard contradictory accounts about his mental state - his family and sympathizers portraying him as not of sound mind, while the plaintiff reportedly ruled out the possibility of himself or his family having a history of mental disorder.
That the court delivered the death sentence indicates it had no doubt about the plaintiff's state of mind. The counterclaim, on the other hand, lacks the support of evidence to make the justices believe.

If the was a shred of truth regarding him being ill, then I find it strange that except for the 15 minutes examination stated above above, that the is not one single record about him being ill until he was caught carrying drugs into a country that has an automatic death penalty for amounts exceeding 50grams and he was carrying over 4 kilos.
He was caught and no real proof came to light in over 2 years regarding his mental state and therefore he was duly executed for his crime.
