DHARAMSALA, 17 June: Wu Yingjie, China’s former party head of the so-called Tibet Autonomous Region(TAR) in occupied Tibet, has been sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve by a Chinese court in a bribery case totalling more than 343 million yuan ($47.8 million)
According to China’s state-run media, Xinhua, the Beijing No. 3 Intermediate People’s Court, in its verdict on Wednesday, deprived Wu of his political rights for life, confiscated all his personal property, and ordered illegal gains from bribery to be recovered and turned over to the national treasury.
Reuters noted, “The death sentences will only be carried out if he commits further crimes during the period of reprieve. Otherwise, he will face a life sentence after two years. ”.
According to the Court’s verdict, the CCP’s former Tibet Party Chief was found guilty of using his various positions in “south China’s Xizang Autonomous region” (a colonial reference to occupied Tibet) to accept money and valuables worth $48 million U.S dollars for granting favours in project contracts and business operations.
