Parents seek payout

A couple in north China yesterday said they will seek compensation for the wrongful conviction and execution of their son in 1996.

Li Sanren, father of Huugjilt, who was 18 when he was executed for rape and murder, said the family has assigned two lawyers to handle the claim.

The Inner Mongolia Autonomous Regional Higher People’s Court last week quashed Huugjilt’s conviction, saying the facts of his case were unclear and evidence was inadequate.

Huugjilt was found guilty of raping and murdering a woman in a public toilet in Hohhot on April 9, 1996.

He was sentenced to death and executed in June of the same year.
