Drug dealers get death

Taiwan drug dealers Chien Chih-cheng and Chen Ming-hsiung were sentenced to death in Fujian last week, a local official said yesterday.

The two were arrested in October on charges of trafficking in more than 12 kg of heroin, the largest such drug seizure by Fujian police in the past three years, an official from the Zhangzhou Intermediate People's Court, said.
