A man from southwest China was executed Thursday for killing a soldier on duty before engaging in a series of robberies 13 years ago.
Liang Kaiwu, from Ziyang City, Sichuan Province, killed the soldier and took his rifle in August 2002. Liang used the rifle to kill a cashier in a Ziyang company four months later and stole more than 410,000 yuan in cash, according to Ziyang Intermediate People's Court. He was also found guilty of many subsequent robberies.
Police found the rifle, four pistols and 54 bullets in the backyard of Liang's house in May 2013.
Liang was sentenced to death in 2014. Endi
