A POLICE official whose name became a byword for abuse of power after his son was accused of causing a deadly hit-and-run accident, has paid more than 460,000 US$69,000 in compensation, the victim's father said yesterday.
Baoding City's deputy police chief Li Gang became infamous in China when reports emerged that his son shouted "my father is Li Gang!" after the accident in an apparent attempt to shield himself from responsibility.
The son, Li Qiming, is °?accused of running into and killing a young woman while driving drunk.
The victim's father, Chen Guangqian, told The Associated Press yesterday that Li Gang had given him 460,000 yuan.
The October 16 death on a university campus in Baoding, Hebei Province, focused public outrage on abuses of power, and Li Gang appeared on national television, weeping, apologizing and bowing.
Chen said he had taken the body of his daughter, 20-year-old Chen Xiaofeng, home and buried her.
An official surnamed Liu with the Wangdu District Court said the court has the Li Qiming case, but did not know when it would go to trial.
