A 76-year-old man was yesterday remanded to prison after appearing in court and being formally charged with the murder of six-year-old Zi Feng Cao, whose death followed an alleged dispute involving the child’s parents.
Quan Sheng Li appeared before Magistrate Omadatt Chandan at the Leonora Magistrate’s Court, where the indictable murder charge was read to him. He was not required to enter a plea and was remanded until November 5, 2026. The prosecution indicated that the post-mortem report and additional witness statements remain outstanding.
The charge arises from the October 1 killing of Cao at Parika, East Bank Essequibo, where his parents operate a Chinese restaurant.
