Extradition

The de facto haven fro Chinese criminals might just have come to some sense after all, as Canada turned over to China Zeng Hanlin, a fugitive alleged to have been involved in a 35 million yuan stock fraud case who had lived in exile in Canada for 10 years. His Canadian lawyer said Zeng would face an unfair trial or even the death penalty after being deported to China, but the Canadian judge refused to be fooled again this time, saying "The applicant's arguments are speculative as there is no evidence that the death penalty or torture can reasonably be anticipated in this case."
