Later December last year, Gao Qinrong forwarded his appeal materials to the National People’s Congress.

Gao Qinrong was involved in the report on the Shanxi Fake Irrigation Project and was named a hero reporter for exposing fakery. Later, he was sentenced to 13 years in prison (12 years time served) for “pimping, embezzlement and fraud.” After deducting time for good behavior he actually served eight years.
