Alleged serial killer Zhao Zhihong is escorted to stand trial for murder, rape, robbery and larceny at the Hohhot Intermediate People's Court in Hohhot, capital of north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Feb. 9, 2015. Zhao Zhihong, 42, was sentenced to death, deprived of political rights for life for murder, rape, robbery and larceny by the court on Monday. Zhao was apprehended in 2005 and confessed to a string of rape and murder cases, including one in a public toilet in Hohhot in 1996 that was pinned on teenager Huugjilt, who was wrongly sentenced and executed for the crime. Huugjilt was exonerated in December 2014. Huugjilt's parents were at the court on Monday. (Xinhua)
