The High Court yesterday upheld the death sentence for Chen Chia-hung (陳宏嘉), who was convicted of killing his girlfriend and their baby sons in November 2019.
The Taichung District Court in September 2020 sentenced Chen to death and deprived him of civil rights for life.
He appealed, but the High Court judges yesterday said that Chen, now 31, acted cruely without concern for human life when he strangled his live-in girlfriend and suffocated their 11-month-old twin sons.
It was a heinous crime that shocked society, the judges said.
Chen’s actions fell under Article 6 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights
