A man dressed up as a nurse and killed his mistress's husband in a hospital by injecting poison into his infusion bottle so that the adulterous couple could marry in Kazou county of Chaoyang, Liaoning province.

Ge Shunbo and his ex-girlfriend broke up because of parental disapproval in 2004. They resumed their relationship in 2007 after she married another man. The woman became pregnant with Ge's baby in August.

Ge hit her husband on the head with a hammer in September. The victim ended up in a coma in a hospital. Ge posed as a nurse and poisoned the man later that month.

Cops caught Ge by checking a video monitoring system near the victim's ward.
