World Court: U.S. must delay Mexican death sentences

Carolyn Hileman - The Voice* | July 16, 2008 

THE HAGUE (Reuters) - The World Court ordered the United States on Wednesday to do all it could to halt the imminent executions of five Mexicans until the court makes a final judgment in a dispute over suspects’ rights. The row, which has strained relations between the two neighbors, centers on Mexico’s accusation that the United States failed to inform 51 of its citizens sentenced to die in U.S. jails of their right to consular assistance. One of the five Mexicans on death row, Jose Medellin, is due to die on August 5 in Texas, while the others also face imminent execution.
