Pearl murderer stays defiant
Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, 28, a former public schoolboy from Wanstead, east London, was defiant: “We will see who will die first, me or the authorities who have arranged the death sentence for me,” he told the judge.
His three accomplices were sentenced to 25 years each by the judge at the special anti-terrorism court in Hyderabad prison. Saeed was transferred to the death row immediately after he was sentenced.
