A man died in a gruesome death five days after his girlfriend lit him on fire – but why are netizens celebrating?
According to media reports, the incident occurred on April 9 in Taichung. The victim, a man with the last name Lee, wanted to bring his secret lover home but discovered his girlfriend, Xie, there. He came up with an excuse and asked her to go get gasoline for his vehicle.
However, when Xie returned, she discovered her boyfriend’s secret lover anyway, and the couple got into an argument. Lee reportedly provoked Xie and dared her to pour the gasoline on him several times.
The boyfriend got what he wanted. Xie poured the gasoline on him, which was captured in a video.
Lee then entered his home, drenched in gasoline, with Xie following behind.
Xie ended up lighting him on fire inside the home with a lighter.
Lee suffered 2nd to 3rd degree burns on 68% of his body and passed away after five days.
Following the news, netizens reacted positively and celebrated. But why? Aside from the claim that Lee was the one who provoked Xie, it has to do with another case that happened just a month earlier.
On March 12, a 29-year-old man was killed after getting hit from behind while waiting at a red light.
Following the accident, the at-fault driver was seen casually having a smoke. Passersby also revealed he had a poor attitude and didn’t care for the victim.
Later, the at-fault driver promised to meet with investigators but stood them up twice. The police eventually arrested him.
Eventually, it was revealed that the at-fault driver for the car accident in March and the deceased in the gruesome death in April were the same person. Netizens immediately reacted to this revelation.
