Comments on: The Mystery of the Time Traveling Executions: Uyghur Terrorists Get Not-So-Summary Sentences? http://www.thenewdominion.net/212/the-mystery-of-the-time-traveling-executions-uyghur-terrorists-get-not-so-summary-sentences/ Your source for all things Xinjiang Fri, 21 Nov 2008 09:01:58 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: <img class="identicon" src="http://www.thenewdominion.net/wp-content/plugins/wp-identicon/identicon/1b9811ff5920228.png" alt="Porfiriy Identicon Icon" height="35" width="35" /> Porfiriy http://www.thenewdominion.net/212/the-mystery-of-the-time-traveling-executions-uyghur-terrorists-get-not-so-summary-sentences/#comment-1706 Porfiriy Identicon Icon Porfiriy Mon, 14 Jul 2008 21:44:50 +0000 http://www.thenewdominion.net/?p=212#comment-1706 Based on the Chinese language report above, it appeared that the Uyghurs were *sentenced* to be *immediately* executed. That's how things are usually done in the Chinese legal system for cases like these, although I did mention that there is a recent law that the PRC drafted to sate Human Rights folks requiring mandatory reviews for executions. Also note in the included translation above that two alleged suspects who were found guilty of lesser crimes were sentenced to "deferred executions," meaning they would be executed after a period of time, the sentence of deferred execution, or being executed two years after the sentencing, stands in contrast to the sentence of "execution" which strongly implies a summary, immediate execution, or at the very least an execution within a period of time considerably shorter than two years. But yeah, the whole point of the post is that I'm not exactly sure what happened.

Did you consider the possibility that the sentence was in November, 2007 but the executions were carried out July this year? Seems like RFA has corrected their report based on your findings.
