Yuan appeared "very agitated" as he was escorted out of the court, and was executed about 15 minutes later, the paper said.

Yep, that is pretty fast.

Chinese tycoon Yuan Baojing once worth more than US$360 million and sentenced to death by lethal injection for having a man who tried to blackmail him killed, is escorted by police in court in Liaoyang, China Friday March 17, 2006. Yuan and two accomplices were put to death by lethal injection Friday after a court in China's northeastern Liaoning province upheld a capital punishment judgment handed down last year, said a notice on the official Web site of China's courts.

"I refuse to accept it. I will inform against someone,"

He might not have accepted it but less than a half hour later he went to never never land. That probably sends a message to many other Chinese.

Yuan Baojing and two accomplices were put to death by lethal injection...

I wonder how much he had to pay in order to avoid a bullet to the back of the head.

That'll teach 'em not to fall behind on their Communist Party dues.

"put to death by lethal injection"

How progressive of them. And here I thought they just shot them in the head with an AK-47, billed the family for the bullet and harvested they're organs.

Wait, a country run by murderers -- I haven't noticed a regime change since the days of Mao's mass murdering Cultural Revolution and the Gang of Four; not to mention Tiannamen Square state slaughter of the innocents -- is calling this guy a murderer?

I.e. he must have been making too much money for the ChiCom oligarchs, and they wanted it for themselves.

"I refuse to accept it. I will inform against someone," the Beijing Youth Daily quoted Yuan as saying after the judge announced the final decision.

Did this guy not understand that he had 15 minutes to live?

A good rule is to do it yourself and cleanup after. Hitmen aren't what they used to be - if they ever get caught, they may drop a dime on you. They could also be cops undercover. Or try to blackmail you.

It's an old profession that's lost a lot of its honor.

Do it yourself. Or hire someone you can trust.
