Primary school rapist executed in Hainan

Luo Chongchuang, a man who raped and molested multiple girls for years, was executed on Tuesday after China's top court approved his death penalty. The execution was carried out by the Hainan First Intermediate People's Court, where he was convicted of rape and child molestation and given the death sentence. At Luo's trial, the court heard that while working as a primary school teacher in Hainan from 2019 to 2021 he raped four girls several times and molested 25 others. Luo was sentenced to death by the court in April last year. He appealed to the Hainan High People's Court, but the original sentence was upheld.
