China executes child killer

China has executed a former community doctor who killed eight school children in China\'s eastern Fujian province on March 23.



According to Chinese media Zheng Minsheng, 42, was shot in Nanping after China\'s top court approved his sentence.



Zheng was convicted on April 8 and had appealed unsuccessfully against his death sentence.



The execution comes one month after he stabbed the eight young children to death at a primary school in the same city.
