Murder suspects said on run for decades

Two fugitives at large for almost three decades after they were suspected of killing seven people in Siping, Jilin province, were arrested on Monday, local police announced on Friday.

Qi Zhihua, 52, and his brother Qi Zhifeng, 49, are accused of shooting the city's taxation chief, surnamed Zhang, and his 18-year-old son on the evening of Aug 3, 1993, with a homemade firearm after Zhang denied them jobs at the taxation bureau, according to the public security bureau in Siping.

The brothers are also accused of robbing 6,000 yuan ($875) from Zhang's family before fleeing.
