Chinese court convicts Australians in Crown gambling case
A Chinese court
Shanghai - Egypt Today
Nineteen employees of Australia's Crown Resorts company pleaded guilty to gambling-related charges in a Chinese court on Monday, with three Australian staffers sentenced to months-long jail terms.
Jason O'Connor, the executive vice president of Crown division VIP International, was given a 10-month jail term while the two other Australians, Pan Dan and Jerry Xuan, were given nine-month sentences, Australian Consul General Graeme Meehan told reporters outside the Shanghai court.
But Meehan said their sentences start from the day of their detention on October 14, 2016, which would mean they have already served at least eight months.
