Ma Jiajue incident
Between 13 and 15 February 2004, four Yunnan University students were fatally bludgeoned in a dormitory residence in Kunming, Yunnan, China. The perpetrator, fellow student Ma Jiajue, was arrested in March 2004 after the murders were discovered. Ma was convicted of four counts of murder in April 2004 and executed in June of the same year.
The murders, dubbed the "Ma Jiajue incident" ("马加爵事件"/"马加爵案") and formally known the "Yunnan University "2.23" murder case" ("云南大学"2.23"血案"), gained significant media attention and was commonly brought up in reports on later university-related killings. Academic interest focused on the effect on student mental health the killings had at universities around China.
Shao Ruijie (simplified Chinese: 邵瑞杰; traditional Chinese: 邵瑞傑; pinyin: Shào Ruìjié), born 11 January 1980, was from Guteng village, Cangwu County, Guangxi Region. Shao was the roommate of Ma Jiajue, sharing room 317, located in Building 6 of Dingxin Apartments, at Yunnan University's northern campus.
Tang Xueli (唐学李; 唐學李; Táng Xuélǐ), born 11 June 1980, was from Chongren village, Lushui County, Yunnan Province. Tang, an ethnic Bai, was an off-campus resident in Xishan district and a friend of Shao. He moved into room 317 during the 2004 winter semester.
Yang Kaihong (杨开红; 楊開紅; Yáng Kāihóng), born 15 April 1982, was from Hongtangzi village, Kaiyuan, Yunnan. Yang, an ethnic Miao, was a fellow Building 6 resident, residing in room 316, and friend of Ma. As he originated from an impoverished background as an ethnic minority, he was not required to pay tuition fees, also receiving financial support from Kaiyuan City Committee for Concern for the Next Generation. Yang was six months away from graduation.
Gong Bo (龚博; 龔博; Gōng Bó), born 12 June 1983, was from Dingjiazhuang village, Mian County, Shaanxi Province. He was a resident of Building 5, a neighbouring dormitory complex, and a shared friend of Ma and Shao.
Ma Jiajue (马加爵; 馬加爵; Mǎ Jiājué), born 4 May 1981, was from Maer village, Binyang County, Guangxi. He had an older brother and two sisters. He attended Binzhou Middle School for junior high school, achieving good grades and winning second place in a physics competition. At Binyang Middle School for high school, his academic effort diminished and he was reported as withdrawn.
In November 1999 he ran away from home out of fear that he would not be able to pass the gaokao college entrance exam. He was discovered by police in Guigang in eastern Guangxi after his school reported his disappearance, and received a disciplinary punishment upon his return. After passing his gaokao, Ma, the pride of his family, was given his family's meager savings; he enrolled in Yunnan University in September 2000.
