CCTV reporter sentenced for taking bribe
A journalist from China Central Television was sentenced yesterday to three years in prison with a four-year reprieve for accepting a bribe in northern Shanxi province.
The Xinghualing District Court in Taiyuan, capital of Shanxi, convicted Li Min of accepting 37,000 yuan ($5,400) and using her job to lobby for a suspect in a case being investigated by the Xinghualing procuratorate last October.
Li's lawyer said she would not appeal the sentence.
