Child slavery accused sentenced in China...
Child slavery accused have been sentenced in China - one man executed for murdering a woman... I remember writing a post somewhere in the blogesphere about this story some months ago. At that time an investigation had taken place and a number of people were arrested. But justice was served this week in Shanxi province in China. One man has been sentenced to death and 28 other people have been jailed for their part in a slavery and child labour scandal in China involving a brickworks. Owners, managers and enforcers at the prison-like kiln, which state media claimed numbered in the hundreds in Shanxi province, were convicted of the charges including forced labour, illegal detention and causing injury, an official said. A man named Zhao Yanbing received the death penalty for beating a woman to death. It has become apparent that Chinese officials throughout China have tightened up considerably in recent times and have begun enforcing many laws that previously would have been overlooked. Political crimes were previously the priority. The reason is the obviously the coming Olympics and China's image!

Contributor's Note
Justice has been seen to be done in China. I wonder if the coming Olympic Games had anything to do with this?
