On September 17, Sun Huaishan, former standing member of the 12th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and former director of the Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Overseas Chinese Committee, was sentenced to 14 years' imprisonment and fined 3 million yuan in the first instance case of accepting bribes.
The court found that from 1994 to 2016, when Sun Huaishan was the director of the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League, deputy secretary general of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, standing committee member, and member of the CPC Central Committee, he took advantage of his position to seek benefits for Jiangsheng Company and other units and individuals in obtaining land use rights and undertaking personal painting exhibitions; he took advantage of the convenience of his authority and position to operate in enterprises for Tianjin Goldman Sachs Company, Longyuan International Investment and Development Co., Ltd. and other units and individuals through the acts of other state functionaries Seek improper benefits in matters such as project approval and job promotion.
From 2000 to 2016, Sun Huaishan illegally accepted property from the heads and individuals of the above-mentioned units directly or through his wife, son and daughter-in-law and other specific related persons by accepting cash, gold bars, calligraphy and painting works, and nominal salaries, totaling more than 39.75 million yuan.
The court held that Sun Huaishan's conduct constituted the crime of accepting bribes. After the case occurred, Sun Huaishan truthfully confessed the facts of the crime that the case-handling organs already had, took the initiative to confess some of the criminal facts that the investigating organs had not yet grasped, and had frank circumstances; actively returned the stolen money and stolen goods, confessed and repented of his crime, and could be given a lenient punishment in accordance with law.
"Political Affairs" (WeChat id: xjbzse) noted that the above judgment information shows that Sun Huaishan is also a "typical" of "family corruption", and his wife, son and daughter-in-law are all involved.
Moreover, the judgment information shows that Sun Huaishan began to "help people do things" since 1994, when he became the director of the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League. However, 6 years later, that is, since 2000, he not only "helped people to do things", but also directly or through his family to collect money and accept bribes of nearly 40 million yuan.
In May this year, in the court of first instance, Sun Huaishan wept bitterly in his final statement and expressed his confession and repentance in court.
Public resumes show that the year 2000, when Sun Huaishan began collecting money, was his second year as deputy secretary general of the CPPCC National Committee.
It is also worth noting that since the Eighteenth National Congress, there have been 21 members of the Central Committee who have fallen, but like Sun Huaishan, it is rare for the judgment to mention taking advantage of the convenience of serving as a member of the Central Committee and other positions to seek profits.
In January this year, at the first session of the 13th People's Congress of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Ma Yongsheng, chief procurator of the People's Procuratorate of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, made a work report on the Sun Huaishan case: "In the process of investigating and handling the Sun Huaishan case, the special case team of the Autonomous Region People's Procuratorate overcame many difficulties such as the special identity of the target of the investigation, the major sensitivity of the case, the wide range of people involved, and the large number of people involved in the case, and traveled millions of kilometers to investigate and verify evidence, forming 84 volumes of 15,000 pages of case file materials. The case was highly praised by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Supreme People's Procuratorate."
