Appeal hearing held for Canadian sentenced to death in China

In this file image taken from Jan. 14, 2019 video footage run by China's CCTV, Robert Lloyd Schellenberg attends his retrial at the Dalian Intermediate People's Court in Dalian, northeastern China's Liaoning province.

Convicted of playing a central role in a methamphetamine smuggling operation, Schellenberg was initially sentenced to 15 years in November, only to be handed the death sentence at a hastily-scheduled January retrial. More than 200 kilograms of methamphetamine were seized as part of Schellenberg's case, the court said. It called the 36-year-old Canadian the"principal offender" and said the evidence presented was"true and sufficient."
