In February, Yu Huaying, who abducted and trafficked 17 children for financial gains between 1993 and 2003, was executed by a court in Guizhou province after the top court approved her death sentence.

In another case, a father in Chongqing who threw his two children out of a high-rise apartment window, was executed in early 2024, along with his girlfriend who had encouraged him, after their death penalties were approved by the top court.
