Bo Xilai's trial continues for third day
Online Edition
The Jinan Intermediate People's Court today held the third-day hearing on the case of bribery, embezzlement and abuse of power involving Bo Xilai.
Wang Zhenggang, then director of the Dalian municipal bureau of urban and rural planning and land, continued to give testimony in court on the charge of embezzlement against Bo.
The 64-year-old Bo is former secretary of the Chongqing Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and former member of the CPC Central Committee Political Bureau.
Prosecutors accused Bo accepted bribes worth about 21.8 million yuan (about US$3.5 million) from businessmen Tang Xiaolin and Xu Ming and embezzled five million yuan in public funds from the Dalian municipal government. He was also accused of abusing power when dealing with his wife Bogu Kailai's murder case and the defection of his associate, Wang Lijun, in 2012.
Bo denied the bribery and embezzlement charges during the two days of trial. Despite the weekend, the trial went on to maintain continuity as agreed by prosecutors, the defendant and his lawyers.
