BEIJING — The man once considered China’s most-wanted fugitive was sentenced to life in prison for smuggling and bribery in a lurid corruption case that reached into the highest echelons of the Communist Party and involved a decade-long extradition fight.
The official Xinhua News Agency reported that Lai Changxing was convicted and sentenced Friday morning by the Intermediate People’s Court in Xiamen, the port city which was his base. On top of the life sentence for smuggling and a concurrent 15-year sentence for bribery, the court ordered all of Lai’s personal property seized, Xinhua said.

BEIJING (AP) — China has accused the Dalai Lama of being deceitful after he reportedly alleged that Chinese agents trained Tibetan women to assassinate him by planting poison in their hair for him to touch during blessings. The Tibetan spiritual leader’s allegations were reported in the London-based Sunday Telegraph. The Chinese Foreign Ministry says the accusation is not worth refuting, but it added Monday that the Dalai Lama generally spreads false information. The nationalistic tabloid the Global Times has further scorned the allegations in a commentary, saying that if China had wanted to kill the Dalai Lama it could have done so any time without waiting until he was 76 years old.

Beijing Adult Entertainment: Chinese opera takes a new turn

The group has focused for many years on creating modern experimental works that draw heavily on traditional Chinese opera, particularly kun opera (崑曲). The English title is taken directly from the name of the work that inspired this production, a performance written by the early Qing Dynasty playwright Kong Shangren (孔尚任). With more than 30 major characters and 40 acts, Peach Blossom Fan (桃花扇) focuses on a love story between the young scholar Hou Fangyu (侯方域) and courtesan Li Xiangjun (李香君), which takes place against the backdrop of the fall of the Ming Dynasty. The collapse of Ming power, which was eventually replaced by the Manchu Qing Dynasty of northern “barbarians,” was an event that touched many poets and scholars deeply, and the overwhelming sense of devastation is conveyed in a work that has been described as “China’s greatest historical drama.”

Beijing Escorts: China airs documentary globally blaming Dalai Lama for self-immolations in …

BEIJING — China has released a documentary accusing the Dalai Lama of orchestrating a wave of self-immolations by Tibetans, in its most elaborate attempt so far to shape international opinion about the protests against Chinese rule.
…
China is touchy about perceived challenges to its rule over Tibet since communist forces entered the region six decades ago. While Beijing has poured investment into the region to raise standards of living and win over Tibetans, it has often appeared to be losing a global public relations battle against the Dalai Lama and his high-profile supporters like the Hollywood actor Richard Gere.
…
The documentary attempts to discredit the immolations, portraying everyone involved as misguided, deceitful and manipulative. In one example, it says two monks who set themselves on fire in January had hired a prostitute the night before the protest.

… As a direct result of her malicious and wanton false accusation, Mr. Strauss-Kahn suffered … substantial harm to his professional and personal reputation in the United States and throughout the world,” says his Bronx court filing, written by attorneys William W. Taylor III, Hugh Campbell and others. It was first reported by the New York Post.
It was submitted two weeks after the same court rejected his argument that diplomatic immunity should shield him from Diallo’s suit, a ruling he may yet appeal.
Diallo’s lawyers said Strauss-Kahn’s defamation claim an example of the “misogynistic attitude” of a man who now faces preliminary charges of being involved in a hotel prostitution ring in France. As of last week, French investigators also studying accusations that Strauss-Kahn may have been involved in a rape during a sex party in a Washington hotel in 2010. Separately, a French writer accused him last year of having tried to rape her during a 2003 interview, an accusation prosecutors said was too old to try. He denies all the allegations.
