Singaporeans hold vigil for Malaysian in high-profile death row case | The Star/ Asia News Network

About 300 people held a candlelight vigil at a Singapore park on Monday (April 25) night to protest against the planned hanging of Nagaenthran Dharmalingam, convicted of drug smuggling whom activists say should be spared because he has an intellectual disability.

34-year-old Nagaenthran has been on death row for more than a decade for trafficking 43g of heroin into Singapore. He lost his final appeal against the execution last month. The execution is scheduled for, April 27.
