Australian may face death sentence
Print Edition
An Australian woman faces a possible death sentence for drug trafficking in Malaysia after a prosecutor said yesterday that a chemist鈥檚 report confirmed the substance found in her bag was crystal methamphetamine.
Maria Elvira Pinto Exposto, a 52-year-old mother of four, was arrested on December 7 at Kuala Lumpur airport with 1.1 kilograms of the drug.
The prosecutor told the magistrate鈥檚 court that Exposto had been trafficking methamphetamine, based on the report. The magistrate ordered the case to be transferred to the high court.
Malaysia has a mandatory death penalty for anyone found guilty of carrying more than 50 grams of a drug.
