A Chinese court sentenced Gui Minhai, a Hong Kong bookseller, to ten years in prison for illegally providing intelligence overseas
BEIJING - A Chinese court sentenced Chinese-born Swedish citizen Gui Minhai to 10 years in jail for illegally providing intelligence overseas on Monday, the Ningbo Intermediate People’s Court said in a statement on its website.
Swedish foreign minister Ann Linde said Gui Minhai should be released, sticking by a position that Sweden has held throughout. The Ningbo court statement said Gui, 55, had stated that he would not appeal the sentence and had asked to have his Chinese citizenship reinstated. Swedish culture minister Amanda Lind defied Chinese diplomatic threats of “countermeasures” to present the prize.
