According to the Chinese ambassador to China, Kenji Kanasugi, a Chinese judge has sentenced a man to death for the fatal stabbing of a Japanese boy in the southwestern city of Shenzhen.
The test commenced earlier in the day.
The 10-year-old boy, a Chinese regional with Chinese parents and Chinese parents, was fatally wound as he was leaving school in September of last year. He passed away the following morning.
The aggressor, identified by Chinese officials as a 44-year-old person surnamed Zhong, was officially arrested on Nov 30 on suspicion of murder, Kyodo had reported.
The attack occurred on the celebration of a 1931 incident that led to the China-Japan war, a sympathetic day in diplomatic relations that is in danger of deteriorating.
Without providing any motives, Kyodo claimed on Friday that Chinese authorities had classified the affair as an “unintended and unrelated occurrence.”
A Foreign national was killed trying to protect a Chinese mother and her child from the attacker in the eastern area of Suzhou last year after a man attacked a vehicle used by a Japanese university in the country last June.
A judge in Suzhou sentenced that aggressor to death on Thursday, Kyodo reported.
