Father Jailed in China for Tattooing Son's Back

From Tian comes the following story:

A father who tattooed the Chinese characters Hen Xin Niang, or "cruel mother", on his son's back after the woman ran away from the abusive man was sentenced to two years in jail, reports Liaoshen Evening News.

Bi Jun of Donggang City often beat his wife when he was drunk or unhappy after they married in 1993.

His wife left him early last year.

In February 2002, Bi tattooed the characters on his son's back in a fit of anger, saying it would remind the boy that his mother did not care for him.
