He was immediately taken to the hospital but eventually died.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The deceased boy had been raised by his grandparents from the age of three, after his parents got divorced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The boy\u2019s family had managed to get by on what his grandmother made from selling vegetables on the street. But after law enforcement began cracking down on street vendors last year, the family began suffering from severe hardship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given the grandmother\u2019s advanced age, she couldn\u2019t slip away from police patrols, so she was repeatedly apprehended and all her stock confiscated. With nothing left to sell, she had trouble keeping the family fed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facing those difficulties, the boy\u2019s grandparents moved to a temporary shelter in another region to plant crops for the spring, leaving the boy alone at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The boy\u2019s mother had died in a car accident after her divorce, and his father had a new family, leaving nobody to look after him, the source said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf you want something to eat, you have to start the fire and prepare the food. How could a seven-year-old boy handle all that by himself? He went hungry more and more often and then fainted from hunger before finally expiring,\u201d the source explained.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locals were saddened to hear about the boy\u2019s death and criticized the authorities for focusing solely on law enforcement and social controls without seeking fundamental solutions to public livelihood issues, the source said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis is the sort of tragedy that happens when the police find any old excuse to arrest and punish people who are just selling stuff on the street to get by. It\u2019s not like they\u2019re asking for handouts, even though the government has stopped giving us rations,\u201d one of the locals was quoted as complaining.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i>Translated by David Carruth.
