Possible Death Penalty For Cannibus Trafficing

[Wilbur]

Two Thais were charged in a magistrate's court here with trafficking in 32.31kg of cannabis.

No plea was recorded from Abdul Halim Da-Oh, 35, and Manawi Mama, 41, of Narathiwat province.

The offence allegedly took place at Lagoona Villa Cherating at the 43rd kilometre of the Kuantan-Kemaman road on Nov 16.

The charge under the Dangerous Drugs Act carries the mandatory death penalty upon conviction.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Kalmizah Salleh applied for a new hearing date as the prosecution was awaiting the chemist's report. Magistrate Noralashiken Abd Razak fixed Jan 29 for the case to be re-mentioned.

You guys are unaware there are several countries that have the death penalty for cannabis, and regularly execute people? Doesn't even have to be a lot.

Maybe the US should start doing that, I'm sure they wouldn't have to worry about pot smokers after a few years because they killed them all. Did Mark Emery ever get convicted yet? I remember he may have been facing the DP.

"Emery has a personal interest in the U.S. political climate. He was indicted in July 2005 in Seattle on charges of conspiring to manufacture marijuana, launder money and traffic millions of marijuana seeds into the United States. He has been fighting extradition to the U.S."
