They said police identified the suspected killers after reviewing the surveillance footage and questioning his classmates.
“He was beaten alive and his body was disfigured beyond recognition,” Wang’s father wrote on Douyin, a Chinese social media platform. “I hope the government will be fair, open and just, punish them severely, and that the killers will pay with their lives!”

Wang and the suspects are all under the age of 14.
