An "innocent" man has been hanged over a cannabis smuggling plot he did not even touch, despite calls from the United Nations and local activists to stop the execution.
Tangaraju Suppiah, 46, was sentenced to death in Singapore in 2018 for assisting in an attempt to traffic 1kg of cannabis.
He was hanged at Changi prison at dawn on Wednesday despite calls from his family and activists to stop the killing, as they said he had been convicted on weak evidence and did not receive appropriate legal access during his prosecution.
