Sun Xiaoguo case

The Higher People’s Court of Yunnan Province on Monday decided to execute Sun Xiaoguo for multiple crimes, deprive him of his political rights, and confiscate all of his assets.

The court announced the decision in a verdict for the retrial of Sun for rape, insulting women by forcible means, intentionally inflicting injury upon others and creating disturbances. The verdict decided to uphold the death penalty handed down to him in 1998 for the same crimes during the first instance and revoke the verdict for retrial in 2007 and that for the second instance in 1999. In a separate trial, Sun was handed a 25-year prison term earlier this year for committing multiple crimes.

Import tariffs

China will adjust import tariffs for a range of products starting January 1, 2020 to promote high-quality development of trade, the Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council said on Monday.

The adjustments will be made to expand imports, promote the coordinated development of trade and environment, and advance the high-quality development of the building of the Belt and Road, the commission said.

Macao celebration

Macao hosted a grand celebration on Friday to mark the 20th anniversary of its return to the motherland.

During the past 20 years, the Macao Special Administrative (SAR) Region has experienced profound changes to become a flourishing international free port with its per capita GDP and life expectancy among the highest in the world. Macao’s transformation has demonstrated to the world a successful practice of “one country, two systems,” a fundamental national policy formulated and continuously improved by Chinese leaders to resolve sovereignty-related questions arising from the nation’s complicated past.

Murderer sentenced

A court in Hunan Province has sentenced criminal gang leader Du Shaoping to death for multiple crimes including murder.

Luo Guangzhong, Du’s accomplice in the murder, was handed a death sentence with a two-year reprieve. Another 12 defendants, who were members of the crime group, were sentenced to jail terms of various lengths, according to a verdict of the first trial of the Intermediate People’s Court of Huaihua in Hunan. An investigation found that Du was contracted to build a playground for Xinhuang No. 1 Middle School in Xinhuang Dong Autonomous County in 2001 and hired Luo to take charge of the project.(SD-Agencies)
