A Chinese court sentenced to death Lu Wangli for taking 26 million yuan (3.1 million dollars) in bribes. Lu was convicted at the Intermediate People's Court in Guiyang, capital of south-western Guizhou province, where he was previously the top official in charge of traffic management.
He committed his crimes between 1998 and 2001, when he realized he was being investigated and fled the country.
He was detained in Fiji and repatriated in April 2002, according to earlier reports in China's state media.
