April 9 (Bloomberg) -- A South African has been sentenced to death in China after being found guilty of smuggling drugs, the Department of International Relations and Cooperation said in an e-mailed statement today.
South Africa’s government is in talks with Chinese authorities to commute the sentence, the statement said. The case has been referred to the High Court in Beijing after a court in Guangzhou upheld the death penalty decision yesterday, it said.
