Two executed over tainted milk that killed babies

[Julai]

Two men have been executed in China for selling hundreds of tonnes of contaminated milk that killed six babies and made 300,000 ill.

The scandal that erupted in September last year highlighted the shoddy safety standards of food in China and the readiness of the authorities to hush up problems that could have cast a shadow over the Beijing Olympics in August.

Officials have never admitted a cover-up to avoid any tarnishing of China’s image during last year’s Games but many parents of ill babies suspect that there was one.

Zhang Yujun and Geng Jinping were put to death after their appeals were turned down.
