The curious case began because the man was upset that his neighbour chopped down his trees without informing him. In retaliation, he decided to use a flashlight “to scare the chickens” at his neighbour's farm.
The curious case began in April last year when the man, surnamed Gu, was upset that his neighbour, surnamed Zhong, chopped down his trees without informing him.
In retaliation, Gu, who is from Hengyang county in China’s south central Hunan province, sneaked into Mr Zhong’s chicken farm at night on several occasions. It was unclear what Gu’s intention was, but the court at Hengyang county heard that on one night, the man used a flashlight “to scare the chickens”, according to state-owned China Daily newspaper.Gu was caught and made to pay Mr Zhong 3,000 yuan in compensation.
This made him more furious and he returned to Mr Zhong’s farm again to repeat his actions, this time resulting in the deaths of 640 chickens.The court on Tuesday said Gu’s actions were intentional and sentenced him to six months jail with one year probation - taking into account the man has shown remorse for his behaviour. - The Straits Times/ANN
