    Life or the death penalty is not enough for this man. Makes you wonder how many kids are suffering behind closed doors. They should cut him open and let rats chew him from inside. What a horror story what is wrong with some people.

    By Mark Stone, China Correspondent
    A case of almost unspeakable child abuse has emerged from China. (Warning: this story contains content some may find distressing.)

    An 11-year-old girl was found walking on a road in the town of Shichang in China's southwestern Guizhou Province on May 8.

    According to local news reports, the girl was talking to herself and occasionally shouting abuse at passers-by.

    A man, named locally as Mr Fu, approached the young girl and discovered she had scars all over her body. On her scalp were scalded patches. She was missing much of her hair.

    Other villagers then told Mr Fu that the girl's name was Xiao Li. They admitted that they knew she was the victim of abuse by her father, a man they named only as Yang.

    Mr Fu called the police, who quickly arrested Yang. Only then was the full horror subjected upon Xiao Li revealed.

    The 11-year-old's mouth had been stitched up with fishing cord, her head had been dipped in boiling water, her skin had been pierced with sewing needles, she had been forced to kneel on a floor covered with broken glass and she had been hung upside down and beaten with ropes and sticks.

    Photographs taken of Xiao Li in hospital this week showed fresh wounds on her knees, and older scars all over her body.

    Doctors say the hair on her head is unlikely ever to grow back because of the abnormal temperatures her scalp has been subjected to.

    Although she is 11, she looks much younger, suggesting that she has been malnourished for most or all of her life.

    The long list of abuses was established through a combination of medical examinations and police interviews with her father, who is said to have admitted his crimes.

    According to an interview given by the girl’s grandmother, Xiao Li's parents left home shortly after she was born to find work elsewhere in China.

    For five years, Xiao Li was looked after by her grandparents. Her father then returned and the abuse began.

    In the interview, the grandmother claimed that she knew about the abuse but could do nothing to stop it. She said that Xiao Li's father - her son - abused her too.

    "He sometimes even beat me along with her, using tobacco stems hitting my back, hitting my head with pot lids," she was quoted as saying.

    On occasion, Xiao Li would flee her father's house and attempt to seek some safety in her grandmother's house. Her father would chase her and beat her again. The grandmother was unable to explain why her son was so abusive.

    It has emerged that the police had been aware of at least one incident of abuse by Yang in October last year.

    Villagers had reported an incident in which the young girl's head was dipped into boiling water.

    The police questioned Yang, who claimed that he had put her head into a pot of boiling water in an attempt to rid her of head lice. The police had ordered Yang to take her to hospital, but the matter was not pursued.

    Sky News has been unable establish what role Xiao Li's mother played in her upbringing.

    Xiao Li is now recovering in hospital. The costs of her medical care have been waived and the local authorities claim to be organising an extensive programme of psychological treatment.

    Chen Yuefang, a local government official, said they are now seeking guardians to look after Xiao Li for the remainder of her childhood because her grandparents are too elderly to do so.

    Mr Chen also pledged that checks would be made on all children in the town to ensure such an incident is not repeated.

    So, a whole community knew that this man was torturing a small girl, and no-one did anything to stop him. Lovely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭slarkin123


    That is absolutely shocking. I just can't grasp how someone can do such horrific things to a child.

    Gross failure by everyone, even the police, to protect her from that sick cùnt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20 itsmichelle


    What the hell is wrong with people that theyl turn a blind eye to that? The grandmother should go to prison too and the mother. I dont care if they were afraid of him. They dont have scars all over there body so they obviously never tried hard enough to protect her. It makes me sick

    Poor child!

    What an evil prick. I hope he gets tortured in prison.

    Considering (a) What Chinese prison is like and (b) what fellow prisoners do to child abusers behind bars you'll probably get your wish.

    Poor little girl. She's going to be scarred not just physically but emotionally for the rest of her life. Whatever punishment her so called father gets it won't be enough.

    When you have a billion people does any sense of community exist?

    I read that:( and the first sequel. Every single page was horrific...unbelievable story of endurance through unimaginable abuse and neglect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,537 ✭✭✭KKkitty


    The bystander effect really irks me when I see stories like this. A defenceless child was being systematically abused day in day out and not one person did anything about it. I hope they hang their collective heads in shame.

    It sounds terrible, but by the third book I was completely inured to it.

    You speak as if China is one big homogeneous culture.

    It's very sad.
    But I suppose it's all a product of socialism. The communists have spent the last 60 odd years brutalising and torturing people in china so by now most people are completely desensitised to this level of cruelty. Hence the "so what" attitude of the granny. Par for the course in communist countries. North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela are all the same.
    Same again when that toddler got rolled over by a van a few years ago and lay in the road for ages and no-one gave a shít and just walked around her.
    The people are utterly brainwashed at this stage and there is little apetite for change. We in western Europe don't know how lucky we are to have escaped the poisonous tentacles of socialism.

    I think it's because people who help passersby or randomly injured strangers get sued for it over there. Successfully! Because "why would you help if you didn't do it yourself"
    It's awful, but that's probably why they don't do it now
    That said, the law probably came into effect BECAUSE people don't help over there
    circle

    People are generally so selfish there that it makes sense to apply this kind of logic to people who help?

    Certainly not a "great bunch of lads" savagery is altogether too common in China. Life is cheap there

    God that's horrible.:( I read of a story in the Irish Times magazine last week about a seven year old girl in Britain who was keep as a slave after she was brought over from Romania by a Romanian 'gangsters'. It was so hard to read. The things the girl had been put through and her mother thinking she had a better life over in Britain as this husband and wife said they'd take care of her.:( How can some people be so devoid of any emotion and be so cruel to another human being? I'm not one for the death penalty or torturing people, but these types of people would make you think differently.:mad:

    He stitched her mouth shut???? How in the name of christ can anyone justify that? Some of this could be attributed to rage or something but to actually hold down a child and pierce their lips multiple times is the sign of a sick sick mind.

    That poor girl :( I really hope he gets the absolutely crap kicked out of him for the rest of his days, thats just vile :(
