Description
China says that it has acted "in accordance with the law" after Canada's Foreign Minister Melanie Joly said that China had executed four Canadian citizens in recent weeks, defying pleas for leniency from Ottawa.
China defended the executions in a statement sent to the Globe and Mail newspaper, which indicated the Canadians had been convicted over drug offences. SOUNDBITE
