From Caijing Magazine:
Liu Zhihua appeared worn down and older than his 59 years when he stood before the Hengshui Intermediate People’s Court for sentencing October 18.
The former vice mayor of Beijing had just been convicted on the bribe-taking charges pending against him since his sacking 28 months earlier.
Prosecutors said Liu accepted about 6.97 million yuan in bribes while serving as vice mayor from 1997 to 2006 and director of the management committee of Zhongguancun Science Park from 2001 to 2006.
