Singapore executed a 45-year-old citizen on Friday (July 28) for drug trafficking which was the first execution of a woman by the city-state in nearly 20 years, officials stated.
"The capital sentence of death imposed on Saridewi Binte Djamani was carried out on 28 July 2023," said the Central Narcotics Bureau, in a statement.
The woman was convicted of trafficking "not less than 30.72 grams" of heroin, which is more than twice the volume that paves the way for the death penalty in Singapore.
Funny how Singaporean media is remaining quiet about this
Isn’t that pretty common there?
I don’t know how free their press is over there
It isn’t free at all
That makes sense
Edit: holy fuck Vietnam is even worse
