Looks like the Gulag for him. Or execution maybe?<br /><br />

I dunno how people have the balls to commit crime in a country like China, or even Russia. The punishments are so harsh, it just aint worth the risk.<br /><br />

I wonder if the charges hold any water, or is this just typical ugly example of divide et impera? That one chap was becoming too important so commie central decided to 'off' him and spread some useful fear in the process...
