Teacher who raped his pupils sentenced to death
A TEACHER has received a suspended death sentence after being convicted of raping two girls and sexually abusing several others.
Yang Shifu, 56, from Tongbo County in the central province of Henan, was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve, said Nanyang Intermediate People’s Court yesterday.
Last week, education officials agreed to pay the parents of Yang’s victims a total of 1.3 million yuan (US$208,780) in compensation, reported www.china.com.cn.
The teacher’s crimes were uncovered on May 21 last year when a boy saw him touching a girl student inappropriately and kissing her in the classroom.
Police detained Yang two days later and he was charged with sexual assaults that took place from spring 2012.
On May 24, the parents of 16 girls, aged between six and 11, took their daughters for medical checks. These confirmed that nine had been abused, news portal www.dahe.cn reported.
One grade-three student said Yang had sexually assaulted her since she started at the school.
The 10-year-old said Yang molested girls in their classroom, asking them to sit on his lap or going over to their seats, reported the Henan Business Daily.
“He would touch us and ask us to kiss his tongue,” said the girl. “I can’t tell you how disgusting it was.”
Yang threatened the girls to stop them reporting him.
Yang was a teacher for some 30 years and was widely viewed as a “nice guy,” it was reported.
China’s Supreme People’s Court has vowed “zero tolerance” of crimes that affect the rights of children.
