In China, on Monday, a man was executed, who in November deliberately rammed his car into people in front of a sports center in the southern Chinese city of Zhuhai, killing 35 people. The information was brought by the state television CCTV, writes TASR according to the AFP agency.
The man was detained immediately after the attack. He had self-inflicted cuts and subsequently fell into a coma. In addition to the victims, according to the authorities, he injured 43 other people. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to death by Chinese judicial authorities in late December.
According to the court, the defendant’s motives were “extremely vile, the nature of the offense extremely serious, the methods particularly cruel and the consequences seriously damaging to society.” According to the court, this was how Fan took out his anger from the broken marriage and the division of property after the divorce.
China has seen several attacks with more casualties in the past year. According to AFP, some analysts attribute the attacks to people’s growing frustration with the slowing economy, as well as a sense of widening social class divides.
