Man admits to killing 7

A MAN in northwest China’s Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region has pleaded guilty to killing his wife and six of her family last October, a local court said yesterday.

Prosecutors said Ma Yongdong killed his wife, his parents-in-law, grandparents-in-law and two nieces in their home in Pengyang on the night of October 14 last year, motivated by a grudge against his father-in-law over marriage and family issues.

Ma pleaded guilty to the seven murders and said he regretted the crimes he committed.

More than 100 people attended yesterday’s hearing, including relatives of the suspect and the victims.

The court did not announce a verdict yesterday.
