Olympic swimming champ Sun Yang leaves detention house

CHINA’S Olympic swimming champion Sun Yang was released today after a seven-day detention for driving without a license in Hangzhou.

The deputy chief of Hangzhou Detention House confirmed that the 21-year-old Hangzhou native left the house at around 8am on Monday.

According to a person close to the case, Sun’s first stop after leaving the house was to be Zhejiang College of Sports, his training center.

Local media had been waiting at the gate of the detention house since early Monday morning. According to a spectator, a black, non-police Buick was spotted leaving the detention house at around 8am, with a passenger wearing a cap believed to be Sun.

The world record holder was suspended from competition and training by the national team last week, as well as banned from commercial activities after his detention and a series of broken team rules earlier.
