did the government award the sentence? or did a court? –Doldrums(talk) 09:18, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose there is a question of how much influence the government has on the court (or how independent the court is). But you are correct to say the court hands down the sentence. I fixed up the first paragraph, as per your suggestion. Jcart1534 12:57, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
yep, we could've reported any influence if we could source it. thanks for fixing up. when my habit of commenting instead of reading the sources and fixing myself gets particularly grating, don't hesitate to let me know. :) –Doldrums(talk) 13:11, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
