Man sentenced to 11 years in prison for cutting off boy’s hand and boiling it
Online Edition
A man found guilty of cutting off a boy’s hand and boiling it was sentenced to 11 years in prison today in Shenyang City, capital of Liaoning Province.
The incident occurred at a budget hotel in Tiexi District on October 22. Wang Xinyu, a 31-year-old unemployed man, had a quarrel with his girlfriend and vented his anger on the woman’s son, who was staying with him, prosecutors said, according to Liaoshen Evening News.
Wang hit the boy in the head and then cut off his right hand with a kitchen knife. He threw the hand in a kettle and boiled it. He later realized his mistake and tried to stop the boy from bleeding by using telephone wires and sent the boy to a hospital, the report said.
Surgeons said they couldn’t reattach the hand as it had been badly damaged, the newspaper said.
Wang later surrendered to police.
Shenyang Intermediate People’s Court tried Wang on May 13. Wang admitted his crime and apologized. His lawyer said it was done “impulsively” and asked for a lenient sentence, according to the report.
Considering that he was willing to pay compensation and had been forgiven by the boy’s family, Wang was given a lighter sentence, the court said.
