Mother kills 10-month old son 'live' on internet

Published

In a horrific incident in China, a mother killed her 10-month-old son in order to get back at her husband and mother-in-law.

Before killing her child she had announced her intention on the net. The woman strangled her son while her webcam was rolling and it was broadcast live on the internet in the province of Fujian.

She called for an ambulance to send her toddler to the hospital and then called the police to surrender herself.

The incident has shocked the entire family and the grandmother told the police that her son and daughter-in-law were too young to be married and to have a kid.

The toddler's parents worked in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province and often left the child with his grandparents in Zhangzhou, in neighboring Fujian province.

Police investigations have revealed that family conflict might have led to the tragedy.

They also told the media that the woman believed that the father did not love his son and the couple had argued about this in the past.

Probe is still on.
