Porn site owner jailed for life
p2pnet.net News:- The creator of China’s largest pornographic site has been jailed for life, says China state news agency Xinhua.
He was tracked down after, “a hospital website had changed to become the homepage of a porn website”.
“Judges at the Taiyuan Intermediate People’s Court handed down the sentence to Chen Hui and ordered the confiscation of 100,000 yuan (12,500 U.S. dollars,” says the story.
Eight other site organizers were imprisoned for terms ranging from 13 months to ten years.
Chen, 28, and his accomplices, “started the Qingseliuyuetian (pornographic summer) website in 2004 and opened a further three porn websites, attracting more than 600,000 users,” says Xinhua
“A police source said it was difficult to know the exact illegal profits of the website because most of the money was spent or saved in foreign bank accounts. The police found about 200,000 yuan (25,000 U.S. dollars) in the Chinese bank accounts of the nine.”
Qingseliuyuetian servers were all in other countries and, “Chen regularly changed the website’s domain name, servers and Internet provider address,” says the story.
