A VERDICT in the case of disgraced politician Bo Xilai on charges of bribery, embezzlement and abuse of power is being delivered this morning by the Jinan Intermediate People’s Court.

Prosecutors accused Bo of netting US$4.3 million through embezzlement facilitated by his wife Bogu Kailai, and through bribes given to his family by a businessman, including a French villa, expenses-paid vacations and fancy delicacies such as abalone.

Bo, 64, also was accused of interfering in the investigation into Bogu, who was convicted of murdering Briton Neil Heywood in a separate trial last year.
