Brutal daytime murder leads to intensified death penalty debate
The death of a 4-year-old girl, who was beheaded on Monday in a knife attack in Taiwan, has sparked widespread public anger on the island and criticism of calls to abolish the death penalty.
The attack is said to have taken place as the child was cycling toward a metro station with her mother in Taipei.
