Jailing of tabloid managers a slap in Hu’s face (SCMP)

According to today’s South China Morning Post:

“A group of mainland legal and economic experts has called for a retrial of two managers of a popular Guangzhou tabloid who were jailed last month for corruption.

They said the convictions by the Dongshan court were ‘a slap in the face’ for the central government’s pledge to uphold private property rights.”
