Man who murdered his ex鈥檚 new lover is sentenced to death
Print Edition
A MAN was sentenced to death yesterday for killing his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend and severely injuring his former lover.
The Shanghai No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court ruled that the suspect, surnamed Xiang, stabbed to death his victim, surnamed Xie, in a premeditated attack on him and his girlfriend, surnamed Lin.
Lin had formerly dated Xiang but left him for Xie, the court heard.
On the morning of April 1, Xiang went to Xie’s apartment in Minhang District armed with a knife.
After gaining entry he launched a “brutal attack” on the couple, the court heard.
Xie was stabbed more than 30 times in the neck, chest and stomach, and died at the scene. Lin was also stabbed repeatedly but managed to flee to the home of a neighbor who called police.
Soon after killing Xie, Xiang contacted police to confess to his crimes, the court heard.
“Though Xiang surrendered himself, he had a clear criminal intent,” the court said.
“He took brutal measures to exact his revenge and the outcome for one of his victims was fatal,” it said.
“The court cannot therefore show any leniency in its judgment,” it said.
Xiang was also ordered to pay 40,000 yuan (US$6,400) in compensation to Xie’s family and 31,000 yuan to Lin to cover their respective funeral and medical expenses.
