BEIJING prosecutors have dropped the murder charge against a woman and a man who confessed to killing the woman's stepdaughter nine years ago because the girl's body could not be found.
The girl's biological mother Gao Qiuhong said her mind went blank after hearing the decision from the First Branch of Beijing Municipal People's Prosecutor's Office on October 18.
She told Beijing Times that she had made an appeal to Beijing Municipal People's Prosecutor's Office to review the case because the two suspects should not be freed after what they had done to her daughter.
The girl, Liu Tingting, started living with her father and stepmother Li Mei in Fangshan District in 1997. Gao said her daughter had long complained about having quarrels with her stepmother. The 14-year-old girl went missing in May 2001. Her father died of illness a few of years later.
Gao's hope of seeing her daughter again was dashed when Li Mei, 47, said she and another man, Chong Jinsheng, 46, strangled the girl to death following a quarrel and buried the corpse under a tree near their house on the night of May 5, 2001. Li made the confession after they were detained in 2008.
However, prosecutors said it decided not to indict the two for lack of evidence.
