A Vietnamese court has sentenced to death two Taiwanese men for trafficking more than two and a half kilograms of heroin.
Lee Chin Wen and Wei Chun Lung were arrested in May 2007, together with three Vietnamese women and another Taiwanese.
A court official has told the AFP news agency the three accomplices received jail sentences of up to 20 years imprisonment.
State media reports the ring had used Vietnam as a transit point to transport heroin from Cambodia to another Asian country, and Australia.
At least 37 people have received the death penalty this year in Vietnam, mostly for trafficking drugs.
