PHILIPPINES - Islands mourns its three "mules" are executed in China

Nothing has been able to bend the Chinese authorities nor the renunciation of President Aquino to travel to the award of the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, or the diplomatic ballet in Beijing, or even the millions of prayers and candles in Philippine churches. March 30, Ordinario Mylene Villanueva, Ramon and Elizabeth Creed Batain were executed for smuggling drugs to China, reports the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

The Philippines, where the death penalty is abolished, the people, who for weeks has followed the efforts of authorities to obtain a commutation of sentence, consider these three "mules", the first to be executed in China, as more victims - networks and poverty - as the culprits.
