China court rejects death sentence appeal for Canadian Schellenberg

Description

A Chinese court on Tuesday rejected Canadian Robert Schellenberg's appeal against a death sentence for drug smuggling. Robert Lloyd Schellenberg was originally sentenced to 15 years in prison in late 2018, but that was changed to the death penalty just months later after a deepening diplomatic rift exploded between Ottawa and Beijing. FRANCE 24's Charles Pellegrin tells us more.
