3 sentenced to death for deadly fire
A court in northeast China yesterday sentenced three people to death for setting fire to a bar which spread to a budget hotel on the upper floors, leaving 11 dead and two others severely injured.
The Intermediate People's Court in Tonghua City, Jilin Province, convicted five prime suspects of arson, sentencing three of them to death. They were found guilty of setting fire to a basement bar on May 1 to get revenge on the bar's owner who they had disputes with, the court said.
Eleven people, including hotel guests and firemen were killed as the fire spread to a karaoke bar and later the hotel's guest rooms. The blaze also caused about 1.8 million yuan (US$283,464) in economic losses.
