HITMAN HIRES HITMAN, WHO HIRES HITMAN, ETC.

Five Chinese hitmen have been jailed for attempted murder after each one avoided carrying out the contract themselves. It began in 2013, when Chinese businessman Tan Youhui was looking for a hitman to take out a competitor. He agreed to pay a hitman 2 million yuan ($280,000) to get the job done. That hitman decided to offer the job to another hitman for half the original price. The second hitman then subcontracted to another hitman, who then subcontracted to a fourth, who gave the job to a fifth. However, hitman number five was so incensed at how much the value of the contract had fallen, that he told the target to fake his own death. This led to the police finding out about the plot. The businessman and the five assassins were all convicted of attempted murder by the court in Nanning, Guangxi and sentenced to prison.
