A MAN who evaded 3.68 million yuan (US$555,570) in toll fees using fake military documents in a central China city was sentenced to life in jail for fraud, the first life sentence for such a violation.
Pingdingshan City's Intermediate People's Court in Henan Province heard the man, surnamed Shi, used two fake military number plates, driver's licenses, military ID cards and other documents. Shi evaded over 3.68 million yuan in toll fees from May 2008 to January 2009, Dahe.com, Henan's major news portal, reported yesterday.
The court also stripped him of political rights for life and fined him 2 million yuan, the newspaper report said.
Shi, claiming he was a soldier with Xuchang City's Armed Police Force, came to Xiatang toll gate on Zhengrao Highway in May 2008 to apply for toll-free passes for two trucks, saying there was a construction project going on, a staff member at the toll gate surnamed Li said.
The documents were complete, but there was no way to identify if they were real, according to Li.
Shi used the two trucks to shift sand and stones and evaded toll fees 2,361 times over the next eight months.
He was caught after a staff member became suspicious.
