KUWAIT, Oct 2: Kuwait on Sunday publicly hanged four Pakistanis convicted of smuggling heroin into the country in 2002, state news agency KUNA said.
It said they had been arrested while trying to enter the country on forged passports. They had concealed heroin by placing it in capsules and rolls, it added.
Sunday’s hanging increased the number of traffickers executed in the small oil-rich nation to 10 since Kuwait made drug smuggling a capital crime in 1995.—-Reuters
