Life term for China’s most-wanted

The man once considered China’s most-wanted fugitive was sentenced to life in prison for smuggling and bribery in a lurid corruption case that reached into the highest echelons of the Communist Party and involved a decade-long extradition fight.
The official Xinhua News Agency reported that Lai Changxing was convicted and sentenced this morning by the Intermediate People’s Court in Xiamen, the port city which was his base.
