Rule over bribery clarified

CHINA yesterday unveiled a regulation on the thresholds for criminal prosecution in cases involving Chinese nationals bribing foreigners working in the country.

Under the regulation jointly issued by the Supreme People's Procuratorate and the Ministry of Public Security, Chinese nationals who bribe foreigners working in China or officials with international organizations with more than 10,000 yuan (US$1,571) for illegitimate commercial gains should be prosecuted.

For Chinese organizations, any cases involving more than 200,000 yuan in bribes to foreigners working in China or global organization officials, should be filed for prosecution.

Bribing foreigners working in China or world body officials are criminal offences in the eighth amendment to the nation's criminal law.
