Jakarta, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 26th Apr, 2018 ) :Eight Taiwanese drug smugglers were sentenced to death by an Indonesian court Thursday after being nabbed with around a tonne of crystal methamphetamine in a country that has some of the world's toughest anti-drug laws.
The men were arrested during raids last July, when the drug network's suspected leader was killed in a shootout with Indonesian police. "The defendants have been found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of colluding and smuggling narcotics," presiding judge Haruno Patriadi said as he passed sentence at the South Jakarta District Court.
