Father of 4 executed for murder
A MAN in south China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has been executed for murdering two birth control officials.
He Shenguo, who was sentenced in 2013 for fatally stabbing the officials, was executed on Thursday, China News Service said.
Under regulations introduced in 1979, but abolished last month, China limited most families to having one child. Authorities used permits, fines, forced sterilizations and abortions to enforce the rules.
He “illegally fathered a fourth child,” and did not pay fines levied against him for fathering extra children, reports said at the time, adding that officials responsible for enforcing birth restrictions denied his children essential documents allowing them to qualify for benefits.
The father carried out the deadly attacks as an act of revenge, the reports said.
