a chicken seller was sentenced to death by the Kota Bharu High Court in Malaysia after being found guilty of trafficking in almost 2kg of cannabis. Judge Datuk Sulaiman Daud passed the sentence on Ou Seng Sameae, 40. Ou Seng, from Narathiwat, Thailand, was charged with committing the offence in Kampung Berek Gong Demin on January 10, 2002.
