A rivalry between two kindergartens in China took a lethal turn after
the principal of one kindergarten allegedly killed two girls who
attend the other kindergarten by lacing their yogurt with rat poison.
The female principal reportedly confessed to the crime, which took
place last week in the northern Chinese village of Lianghe.
According to local media, the woman is accused of hiring a man to
inject a bottle of yogurt with rat poison, and then place the bottle
among two notebooks meant for preschoolers from a competing
kindergarten.
The grandmother of two girls, aged 5 and 6, who attend the
kindergarten brought the notebooks and the yogurt home with her and
later let her grandchildren share the drink.
They subsequently suffered convulsions and were rushed to a nearby
hospital.
One of the girls died on the way; the other held on for a few more
days before perishing.
An initial investigation into the incident found that the two
kindergartens were competing for students, and the principal was
apparently trying to frame her counterpart and damage the rival
kindergarten's reputation.
