CHANGSHA, July 8 (Xinhua) — Wang Yong, former vice chairman of the people's government of southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region, was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve on Tuesday for accepting bribes.
The verdict was handed down by the Intermediate People's Court of Chenzhou City, Hunan Province, central China. His case was heard in open court on May 15 this year.
According to the verdict, Wang Yong, also a former member of the SAR government's leadership group, was deprived of political rights for life and all his personal property will be confiscated in favor of the state.
The court found that from 2007 to 2023, Wang Yong, in various positions, abused his official powers to assist other organizations and individuals in winning contracts for contracting projects, thereby illegally enriching himself in the total amount of more than 271 million yuan (about 37.9 million US dollars).
The court ruled that Wang Yun's crimes had caused serious harm to the interests of the state and the people. Meanwhile, based on the fact that the defendant admitted his guilt and repented of his actions, and also assisted in the return of illegally obtained funds, his sentence was reduced. -0-
