Chinese official executed over corruption involvement

China has executed a former Inner Mongolia official, Li Jianping, for his involvement in the country’s largest corruption case.
Jianping was said to have embezzled over $421 million, the largest corruption case in the nation’s history.
The 64 year old was found guilty by an intermediate court earlier of embezzling a staggering three billion yuan (over USD 421 million) in illegal gains, which is reportedly, the largest sum involved in a single corruption case in China’s history, according to earlier reports in the Chinese official media.
His death sentence, initially issued in 2022, was upheld this August and carried out Tuesday following Supreme People’s Court approval.
The President of China, Xi Jinping, has been on an anti-corruption campaign, which has targeted over a million officials since 2012.
