the Federal Court upheld the death sentence on an Indonesian construction worker for trafficking in 938.91 grammes of cannabis.
Chief Judge of Malaya Tan Sri Zulkefli Ahmad Makinudin, chairing a five-man panel, said the court did not want to disturb the finding of facts of the Johor Baharu High Court over the discovery of a package containing the drug in a car driven by Fernandez.
The panel unanimously dismissed Fernandez's final appeal against the High Court decision on Aug 29, 2008, to convict him and sentenced him to death for drug trafficking.
Fernandez, 36, was found guilty of trafficking in the drug at Jalan Kubur in Kampung Bakar Batu, Johor Baharu, on April 29, 2004.
