Five drug dealers have been executed in east China's Fujian province on Thursday, for illegally manufacturing, possessing and selling drugs, the Xinhua News Agency reported.
One of the criminals was also charged with illegal possession of guns.
Chinese criminal law details an elaborate and rigorous penalty on drug trafficking. Extreme penalties would be dealt according to the weight and category of the narcotics in-point. Sometimes just a few grams over might put the criminal on death row.
