An official who took bribes was executed in China

Bay Tianhui, the former head of "China Huarong International Holdings," was executed for accepting bribes in China. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to official information, from 2014 to 2018, he used his position to accept illegal funds and assets amounting to 156 million dollars. Bay Tianhui was sentenced to death in May 2024.

Although he filed an appeal against the sentence, in February 2024 the Supreme Court rejected his appeal and upheld the sentence. Subsequently, the sentence was carried out, and the former official was executed by hanging.

The convict's family refused to comment on the incident. The Chinese government is strictly combating corruption.

In 2021, Lai Xiaomin, the former chairman of the "Huarong" company, was also sentenced to death for accepting bribes amounting to 1.79 billion yuan. Such severe measures demonstrate the uncompromising policy of the Chinese government in the fight against corruption.
