PETALING JAYA, May 18 (Bernama) -- The High Court here on Tuesday sent two friends to the gallows after finding them guilty of trafficking in 921gm of cannabis five years ago.

Justice Datuk Su Geok Yiam passed the death sentence on Sharizan Khajis, 32, and Junaidi Johan, 26, after ruling that the defence had failed to cast a reasonable doubt on the prosecution's case.

Sharizan, a despatch rider, and Junaidi, a driver, committed the offence in a house in Kampung Dalek Baruat at 9.45pm on Oct 3, 2005.

They were charged under Section 39B(1)(a) of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952, which carries the mandatory death penalty upon conviction.

Deputy public prosecutor Datuk Razali Che Ani appeared for the prosecution, while both the accused were represented by counsel Rosal Azimin and Ghazali Taib.

The prosecution called six witnesses and the defence, two.
