A man who confessed to murdering a woman 18 years ago went on trial on Monday, three weeks after a court cleared a teenager who was wrongfully executed for the crime.
The case was reopened more than eight years after his first trial.
Zhao Zhihong, 42, is accused of murder, rape, robbery and larceny, according to Hohhot Intermediate People's Court.
