Zhao loses appeal over death sentence
Print Edition
ZHAO Liping, a former senior political adviser in northern China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, was sentenced to death on charges of murder, taking bribes and possession of firearms, according to a second trial verdict, issued yesterday.
The provincial higher people’s court of northern China’s Shanxi Province rejected Zhao’s appeal against the first trial verdict, issued by the Intermediate People’s Court of Taiyuan City.
That verdict, last November, stripped Zhao of his political rights, confiscated personal property worth 2 million yuan (US$291,000) and sentenced him to death.
As the ex-vice chairman of Inner Mongolia regional committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, Zhao was found to have shot and killed a person, identified as Li, in Chifeng City in March 2015.
He also took advantage of his post to secure business contracts and accepted bribes totaling 23.68 million yuan from 2008 to 2010.
The Shanxi Provincial Higher People’s Court said the first trial verdict was based on clear facts and passed Zhao’s case to the Supreme People’s Court for approval.
