Two Pakistanis to be hanged in Kuwait today
 Two Pakistani smugglers arrested earlier will be hanged today after Kuwaiti courts and the state's ameer found them guilty of smuggling heroin into Kuwait. Ayub Shah (30) and Usman Khan (40) were caught by Kuwaiti Customs officials for smuggling heroin in 2002 and both confessed to their crime before a local court, according to Kuwaiti police. After charging the accused, the court awarded them the death sentence and they made mercy appeals to the Supreme Court, which upheld the lower court's decision.Posted by: Fred 2005-01-11 |
