A Chinese man has been sentenced to death for fatally stabbing a 10-year-old Japanese schoolboy, in a case that sparked concern among Japanese expats living in China.
According to Japanese media reports the sentence for the knife attack in the southern city of Shenzhen in September was handed down on Friday.
It comes a day after another court handed a death sentence to a Chinese man who attacked a Japanese mother and child and killed a Chinese woman who tried to protect them in Suzhou province in June.
The courts' decisions come as Chinese authorities carried out several high-profile executions in recent days.
