5 Heroin Dealers Executed in Vietnam

5 people convicted of heroin dealing were executed by firing squad in Vietnam, state-controlled media reported Saturday.

The five, including two women, were put to death Friday in southern Ho Chi Minh City, the Thanh Nien (Young People) newspaper said.

They were among 21 people convicted of selling 6 pounds of heroin to drug users on Saigon river.

4 other defendants in the case were sentenced to life in prison while 12 were given jail terms ranging from 3 years to 20 years, the paper said.

Vietnam has some of the world's toughest drug laws.

About 100 people were executed in Vietnam each year for drug-related offenses.

This is really shocking. If you ask me it brings 'depravity' to a whole new level!
