Murder of Jiang Ge
Murder case in Japan involving Chinese nationals / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The murder of Jiang Ge occurred in Nakano, Tokyo, Japan, on 3 November 2016, when Jiang Ge, a 24-year-old graduate student from China at Hosei University, was stabbed to death by Chen Shifeng, a 25-year old Chinese national, just outside her apartment. The case was controversial in China after it was discovered that Jiang's roommate Liu Xin, who initially claimed that she did not know the identity of the murderer, was the murderer's ex-girlfriend. It later emerged that before the murder, Liu asked Jiang to accompany her due to fear of Chen, entered the apartment ahead of Jiang and locked the door, and did not make any attempt to save Jiang from her murderer.
