56 Minutes till the execution.

Doesnt seem like he's going to get clemency now.

Pity :/

Should be getting shot any minute now.

Wonder if they will bottle it at the last minute, knowing how these things tend to go

I am staying up waiting on the news. I hope to go to sleep tonight in the knowledge that human life is valued and respected, however I almost fully expect to be disappointed.

is he dead yet?

Robbo · 29 Dec 2009 at 02:35

No reports yet.

Scary to think at this very minute someone is about to be killed... sure it happens all the time but to know when exactly someone is going to be killed and count down to it is just weird.

China is a bloody strange place, I can't stand the place to be honest i'd rather spend a holiday in hell than go to China.

They are using lethal injection aparently, still not sure if it went ahead though.

2StepSteve · 29 Dec 2009 at 02:39

I think it is safe to say it went/is going ahead as surely we would have heard by now.

Disgraceful really.

Theres no confirmation yet if sentance has been carried out - but final appeal has been rejected so assuming it has.

Not happened yet, I'm listening to BBC radio asian network and they're still hoping for clemency.
