Print Edition
A man thought to be upset by a verdict stabbed four judges with a knife smuggled into a courthouse in central China yesterday morning, court officials said.
He drew the knife and attacked two judges as they were taking questions from him about a ruling in a labor dispute, according to a statement released by the Intermediate People’s Court in Shiyan City of Hubei Province.
It identified the attacker as the appellant in the case, 43-year-old Hu Qinggang.
Two other judges were injured when they tried to stop Hu, who was later detained by court marshals, the court said.
One of the judges was severely injured and is in intensive care, but his wounds re not believed to be life-threatening, the court said.
Shanghai-based online publication The Paper said the suspect had apparently smuggled the knife past security at the court entrance by wrapping it inside newspapers.
No details about the case or the verdict were released.
