22 April 2010 :

in Taiwan, the Taipei High Court sentenced Hsiao Jen-chun and Liao Chia-lin to death for murdering attorney Chou Te-sheng during a robbery in January 1996. The pair allegedly tied a curtain around Chou's neck before stabbing him several times in the neck and chest because he identified Liao during the robbery. The court ruling said both ­defendants had long criminal records, including counts of robbery and kidnapping, and also committed several robberies during their parole.
The two can appeal to the Supreme Court.
