A 39-year-old Chinese man, unhappy about investment losses, deliberately drove into a crowd outside a school, injuring more than 20 people. A court in Changde sentenced him to a suspended death sentence with the possibility of commutation to life imprisonment.

According to a court document published  by a court in the Chinese city of Changde, 39-year-old Huang Wen was unhappy because of investment losses and conflicts with his family. He decided to take out his emotions.

Writes UNN with reference to CNN.

A Chinese court has handed down a suspended death sentence to a man who rammed his car into a crowd outside an elementary school in southern China last month, injuring more than two dozen people.

A court in Changde, Hunan province, has sentenced a driver named Huang Wen to death with a two-year suspended sentence, the state-run Xinhua news agency reports . 

According to Chinese law, a suspended sentence means that the punishment can be commuted to life imprisonment, provided he behaves for two years.

After the trial, the judge found that Huang Wen's behavior constituted a “crime of endangering public safety by means of dangerous methods” and that his attack on innocent elementary school students showed that he was “extremely cruel” in his decision to commit the crime.

AddendumAddendum

After the verdict was announced, it sparked heated discussions on the Internet. Many Chinese netizens complained: “Can't we just sentence him to death?”, or ”Is there any other special reason for such excessive behavior?”
