    Former Mayor of Shenzhen to be Sentenced to Death

    管理員

    According to reports in the Hong Kong media, the former mayor of Shenzhen Xu Zongheng, is likely to be found guilty on several counts of corruption in the coming days and will likely receive the death sentence. It's alleged that Xu accepted over 2 billion yuan in bribes during his time as mayor. Xu's sentencing by a Nanning court will follow the earlier death sentence (with two-year reprieve - which is often commuted to a life sentence) handed down to Chen Shaoji, the former chairman of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, by a Chongqing court in June this year. Both Chen and Xu's case are said to related to Gome founder Huang Guangyu, who was sentenced to 14 years in prison and a fine of 600 million yuan in May this year on charges of offering bribes and engaging in insider trading.
