Huugjilt (Mongolian: Хөгжилдᠬᠥᠭᠵᠢᠯᠲᠦ; simplified Chinese: 呼格吉勒图; traditional Chinese: 呼格吉勒圖; pinyin: Hūgéjílètú, 1977–1996), also spelled Hugjiltu, was an Inner Mongolian who was executed on 10 June 1996 for the rape and murder of a woman. On 5 December 2006, ten years after the execution, Zhao Zhihong wrote the Petition of my Death Penalty admitting he had committed the crime. Huugjilt was posthumously exonerated and Zhao Zhihong was sentenced to death in 2015. Xinhua stated that the case was "one of the most notorious cases of judicial injustice in China in the recent decade."
