Police released a 12-year-old boy from custody last Wednesday, nine days after he had killed his mother, reported The Paper.

据《澎湃资讯》报道，警方于上周三释放了一名12岁的男孩。九天前，他杀死了自己的亲生母亲。

On Dec. 3 in Yuanjiang, a city in central China's Hunan province, the boy, surnamed Wu, fatally stabbed his 34-year-old mother, according to police.

据警方透露，这名来自中国中部湖南省某市的吴姓男孩，于12月3日持刀刺死了他34岁的母亲。

Wu later told police that he had decided to take revenge after she had beaten him one time too many. But according to China's juvenile delinquency law, children under 14 who commit crimes are exempt from punishment and can only be "subjected to reprimand." As such, police set the boy free.

随后，吴某告诉警方，此举是为了报复，因为他母亲经常他。但根据中国青少年刑法，14岁以下的孩子犯罪不承担刑事责任，只能“受到谴责”。因此，警方释放了这个男孩。

Wu's release was met with fierce opposition from his classmates' parents, who told their school and local media that they feared Wu's return would endanger their children.

吴某得到释放引起了他同学的父母的强烈反对，他们告诉学校和当地媒体，他们担心吴某返校会危及自己孩子的安全。
