Zhou, a man in his 50s who worked as a reverse engineer in Sichuan Province, China, was hospitalized in May 2017 in a critical condition and eventually died, according to the Hong Kong media South China Morning Post. He used to say in his lifetime, "'When I'm in my fifties, I'm going to face a disaster that separates life and death.'
An autopsy determined that the cause of his death was paraquat poisoning. Paraquat is highly toxic and spreads quickly, and is used as a herbicide. If absorbed by the human body, you can lose your life.
Zhou's daughter suspected his usual cough medicine. When the daughter saw a mouse fed some of the cough medicine die, she was convinced that it contained poison and reported it to the police as a murder case.
After an investigation, the police arrested a woman named 'Jing' as a suspect.
When his mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2011, Jing visited Zhou, a reverse technician, and asked for help.
Later, his mother finally passed away, but Jing developed into a relationship with Zhou.
Jing was pregnant with Zhou's child several times but was forced to have an abortion.
She wanted to marry Zhou, but Zhou refused, saying she had restored her relationship with her ex-wife.
Angered by this, Jing vowed revenge on Zhou.
Jing got paraquat in 2017, mixed it with Zhou's cough medicine, and handed him four pieces of underwear soaked in paraquat.
Zhou, who took this cough medicine and wore underwear that touched Paraquat, suffered from abnormalities in his body and died shortly after being hospitalized.
Jing was sentenced to 14 years in prison for intentional murder in September last year.
She appealed, saying her sentence was heavy, but it was recently rejected.
