Update: Wo Weihan
An update on the case of Wo Weihan, the Chinese businessman sentenced to death for espionage. (See also: ).
On Friday evening, we received a statement from Mr Wo's family. Extracts below:
Today, our beloved father, Wo Weihan, was executed... At 5pm today, we were informed by Austria's deputy ambassador Stefan Scholz that the Chinese MFA gave him the confirmation that the execution had taken place in the morning today. According to our information, he was executed by gunshot... We are deeply shocked, saddened, disappointed and outraged.
As I write this entry, I'm unaware of any reaction from the Chinese government. But on Thursday, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman : "China is a country run by law and the final verdict concerning Wo was independently made by the relevant Chinese judicial organs."
