复旦投毒案最新进展:最高法院核准林森浩死刑

China's Supreme People's Court (SPC) on Wednesday approved the death sentence for a postgraduate student charged with poisoning his roommate after reexamining the victim's cause of death.

经过对受害者死因的复审，中国最高人民法院于周三核准了林森浩的死刑，罪名是投毒杀害室友。

Lin Senhao, a student at Shanghai's prestigious Fudan University, used N-Nitrosodimethylamine, a chemical compound taken from a university lab, to contaminate a water dispenser in his dormitory on March 31, 2013. Prosecutors argued that Huang Yang, his roommate, drunk the tainted water and this caused him to die of organ failure on April 16.

林森浩是上海最著名的复旦大学的学生，2013年3月31日，他将从学校实验室拿回来的化学物质二甲基亚硝胺投入了宿舍的饮水机。检察院认为他的室友黄洋因喝下了被投毒的水之后于4月16日死于器官衰竭。

Huang's father told Beijing-based The Mirror newspaper that "I support the court's decision and I'm glad my son has gotten justice."

黄洋的父亲告诉北京的镜报记者，“我支持法院的判决，我很欣慰我儿子终于讨回了正义。”

Lin Zunyao, Lin's father, told the West China City Daily on Wednesday that "after I received notice (of the death sentence), I did not slept for the whole night." "There are lots of questions about the case," he added.

林森浩的父亲林尊耀周三告诉华西都市报的记者，“得知这一消息（死刑），我一整晚都没睡。” 他补充说道：“这个案子还有很多疑点。”

In June, Lin's lawyer Xie Tongxiang claimed that Huang might have died from an allergic reaction to a drug. Xie submitted seven application letters to the SPC, requesting a reexamination of the victim's cause of death.

六月，林森浩的律师谢通祥称黄洋可能是死于对药物的过敏反应。谢律师向最高法提交了七份申请，要求对死者死因进行复审。

"If Huang died of poison, why were no metabolic substances related to the chemical compound found in his system? Several liver disease and forensic experts have said that Huang's symptoms did not correspond with the poison, but were consistent with drug-induced hepatic disease, drug allergies or acute viral hepatitis B," Xie claimed in a letter.

“如果黄洋真的死于投毒，为什么他的代谢系统里没有发现二甲基亚硝胺的代谢产物呢？几位肝病专家和法医专家都说黄洋的症状并不符合中毒的症状，而是和药物导致的肝脏疾病，药物过敏或者急性乙肝更为一致。”谢律师在申请中写道。

The Shanghai No.2 Intermediate People's Court convicted Lin of intentional homicide in the first trial and sentenced him to death in February 2014.

上海市第二中级人民法院于2014年2月一审判决林森浩故意杀人罪成立，并判处死刑。
