That's their law that they ignored. Does that make it any clearer for you? As Chris has said they wanted him dead and, it would appear, at any cost. The judiciary, and indeed a fair contingent of the population, have not forgotten England's complicity in the opium wars and they will be seeking restitution and revenge for quite some time to come.

Why did he ever need to be evaluated as the is no prior medical records from any of the countries he has lived in saying that he was mentally ill, so any examination would only prove was that he was ill when examined not at the time of the offence.
If the was proof of mental illness then they were wrong but as the is no prior proof just his desperate family and friends trying anything to obtain his release by any means possible.
