( 2003-12-02 16:35) (China Daily)
A man who raped and killed
his wife before chopping up her body has received the death penalty, reports
Southern Metro News.
Li Cairi returned to his rented flat in Guangzhou on May 28, 2002 and got
into a quarrel with his wife.
After finding a cigarette butt at home, he suspected his wife was having an
affair.
When the woman refused to have sex with him because she was two months
pregnant, Li raped her and strangled her in the process.
Then he chopped up her body and threw the parts into a river before fleeing
to his hometown outside of Guangdong Province.
The Guangzhou Intermediate People's Court said it handed down the death
sentence due to the cruel manner in which he committed the
murder.
