Former Chinese Agriculture Minister Sentenced to Death for Bribery
Tang Renjian

Tang Renjian, China's former Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, was sentenced to suspended death for bribery in a court in Jilin province on Sunday, according to state news agency Xinhua.

Tang received bribes, including cash and property worth over 268 million yuan ($37.6 million) in various positions held from 2007 to 2024, Xinhua said.

The Changchun Intermediate People's Court suspended his death sentence for two years, noting that he had confessed to his crimes, she added.

The Communist Party of China expelled Tang in November 2024, six months after he was investigated by the anti-corruption watchdog and removed from his post.

Tang's investigation was remarkably swift and followed similar investigations into Defense Minister Li Shangfu and his predecessor Wei Fenghe.

President Xi Jinping launched a purge of China's domestic security apparatus in 2020, seeking to ensure that police, prosecutors and judges are "absolutely loyal, absolutely clean and absolutely trustworthy."

According to official biographies, Tang was governor of the western province of Gansu from 2017 to 2020, before being appointed minister of agriculture and rural affairs.

In January, Xi said corruption is the biggest threat to the Communist Party of China and remains on the rise.
