Li Peiyao

Li Peiyao (simplified Chinese: 李沛瑶; traditional Chinese: 李沛瑤; pinyin: Lǐ Pèiyáo; 1 June 1933 – 2 February 1996) was a Chinese politician. He was born in Cangwu County, Guangxi, the son of Li Jishen, the founder of the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang (RCCK), a breakaway faction of the Kuomintang that cooperated with the Communists. He served as Chairman of the RCCK from 1992 to his death in 1996 and a Vice-Chairman of the National People's Congress Standing Committee from 1993 to 1996.

In February 1996, Li was killed by Zhang Jinlong (张金龙), an 18-year-old security guard from the People's Armed Police (PAP). According to court documents, Li returned home and caught Zhang in the middle of a burglary attempt. After a physical struggle, Zhang repeatedly chopped Li with a cleaver from the home kitchen, and Li bled to death. Zhang then continued looting Li's apartment, carrying with him an expensive camera, a leather jacket, and other goods. He was discovered by a neighbour who reported the incident to the police. Zhang was arrested and sentenced to death.[1] PAP commander Lt. Gen. Ba Zhongtan was fired as a result of the incident.[2]
