Death sentence for killings

Washington - A Pakistani national, Mir Aimal Kasi, was sentenced to death yesterday for the 1993 killing of two CIA employees, a court spokesman said in Fairfax, Virginia, just outside Washington.The jury of six men and six women deliberated seven hours over two days before recommending the death penalty for the 33-year-old Kasi, who was found guilty on Monday."I'm very satisfied with the verdict they returned. I've felt for 4-1/2 years that it was a particularly terrible killing," the prosecutor, Mr Bob Horan, said in a post-hearing press conference. A judge will review the sentence on January 23rd, and could overturn it.
