The murder of Chen Shijun (Chinese: 陈施君謀殺案), officially called "June 14 Foreign-Related Criminal Case" (Chinese: 6·14涉外刑事案件)[1][2] is an intentional homicide case in Ningbo, China.
On the night of June 14, 2021, Chen Shijun, a 23-year-old female college student from the same university, was raped and stabbed to death in a grove of trees alongside the Shiji Avenue, Yinzhou District, Ningbo.[3] In the early hours of June 15, police arrested a suspect Shadeed Abdulmateen, an American citizen who was an English teacher at the Ningbo University of Technology who told the police that the reason for the killing was due to a "relationship dispute" with him and the victim.
The case has stirred up a wave of anti-foreigner sentiments in China[4][5] and has triggered a lot of discussions on Chinese social media about the issue of "super-national treatment" – e.g. granting leniency in sentencing to crimes committed by foreigners.[6][7][8]
On August 20, the Ningbo People's Procuratorate filed an indictment against the perpetrator to the Ningbo Intermediate People's Court for the crime of intentional homicide.[9] On 21 April 2022, Abdulmateen was found guilty of murder and sentenced to death.[10][11]
