China serial rapist farmer appeals death sentence

Dai Qingcheng, 46, was given the death penalty in December for raping the women between 1993 and 2009 in Anhui province in eastern China, the China Daily reported.

The paper said he appealed to the Higher People's Court of Anhui, but did not say when the case would be heard.

Dai usually preyed on the wives of migrant workers who had gone to bigger cities for work, the report said. His victims ranged from young girls to women in their 50s and included a woman who was six months pregnant.

The China Daily quoted police as saying Dai evaded capture for so long because some of his victims were too ashamed to go to the police.
