Gui Minhai, detained Hong Kong bookseller, jailed for 10 years in China
Swedish citizen who disappeared in 2015 is sentenced in Ningbo for ‘providing intelligence’ overseas
A Chinese court has sentenced Swedish bookseller Gui Minhai to 10 years in prison for “providing intelligence” overseas, in a case that has highlighted China’s far-reaching crackdown on critics.
A court in Ningbo, an eastern port city, said on Tuesday that Gui had been found guilty and would be stripped of political rights for five years in addition to his prison term. The brief statement said Gui had pled guilty and would not be appealing against his case.
