Court sentences Beijing 'airport bomber' to 6 years in prison
By Katie Hunt and Feng Ke, CNN

(CNN) -- A Beijing court has sentenced a wheelchair-bound man, who set off a homemade explosive inside Beijing Capital International Airport in July, to six years in prison.

Ji Zhongxing, 34, from Shandong province, was found guilty of setting off an explosive device in a public place, according to a statement released by Beijing Chaoyang District People's Court.

It said that an investigation had found that Ji, who claimed he had been paralyzed after being beaten by security guards, was dissatisfied with how he had been treated by authorities.

The court said the explosive device was contained inside a green canvas bag with the Chinese characters for revenge written on it and Ji hid the device inside his pants to evade airport security checks.

I totally agreed with Human rights but to control over 1.2 Billions populations is not a easy task, We have to balance between human rights and social safety, It cannot repeat American history where a child using his father gun shooting at school that kind of freedom that we don't need.
