However, he received a 2-year reprieve, during which the sentence will not be carried out if he behaves well in prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Liange was convicted of bribes of 121 million yuan ($17 million) and illegal loans of 3.3 billion yuan ($462 million). All his assets will be confiscated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The convict is one of the highest-ranking bankers in China and turned out to be a victim of the major anti-corruption campaign in the financial sector launched by President Xi Jinping in 2021. Two other financial officials were also convicted before him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the beginning of this year, Xi Jinping promised to step up the fight against corruption in finance and energy and to show no mercy, although in mid-2022 he declared victory in the fight against corruption.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Chinese court has sentenced Liu Liange, the CEO of one of the world&#8217;s largest banks, Bank of China, to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24222,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[60,57,50,54],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crime","category-finances","category-international","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24221","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24221"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24221\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24223,"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24221\/revisions\/24223"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24222"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omegatv.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
