Xie Pengfei was suspected of taking bribes during the period from 200 1 to 20 12, when he was the deputy secretary-general of Guangdong provincial government, director of provincial development research center and party secretary (director level).
According to the indictment, Xie Pengfei mainly used his authority and rich network resources to "do things" for bribers, thus accepting benefits. Most of the bribers are the heads of enterprises. Xie Pengfei used his position to "ventilate" with the heads of relevant local departments to make the bribers gain benefits; Xie Pengfei also helped Li Jinfeng, former deputy secretary-general of Qingyuan Municipal Committee, and Zhang Peizhong, director of Public Traffic Management Bureau of Foshan Public Security Bureau, get promoted.
Xie Pengfei admitted taking bribes in the court hearing on the 6th, but raised objections to some details of taking bribes. The prosecution pointed out in court that after Xie Pengfei arrived at the case, he truthfully confessed the criminal facts that the judicial organs had not yet mastered, and exposed the criminal acts of others. After verification, he surrendered himself and made meritorious deeds. On the morning of September 28th, 20 14, the bribery case of Xie Pengfei, former deputy secretary-general of Guangdong Provincial Government, was heard for the second time in the second instance of Guangdong High Court. Previously, Chaozhou Intermediate People's Court sentenced Xie Pengfei to fixed-term imprisonment of 14 years for accepting bribes and confiscated his personal property of RMB10.5 million yuan. After the verdict was pronounced in the first instance, Xie Pengfei appealed, and the procuratorate also protested on the grounds that the sentence was too light. During the trial, the prosecution presented three pieces of new evidence, and conducted an investigation and debate on whether Xie Pengfei had surrendered himself and made meritorious service.
The public prosecution agency believes that the sentencing in the first instance was obviously improper, and Xie Pengfei's bribery was equivalent to RMB150,000 yuan, so it was impossible to determine the mitigating circumstances, and he should be sentenced to life imprisonment or more. Therefore, it was obviously inappropriate to try him in 654.38+04.
Xie Pengfei thinks that 14 years imprisonment is too heavy and appeals. At the first trial, Xie Pengfei said that at the first trial, a large number of disciplinary facts were identified as bribery, and he helped others out of friendship. "I use my research ability to provide consulting and consulting services for some enterprises or individuals beyond my authority, and I have received certain remuneration. I think this is only a violation of discipline at most, but it was wrongly identified as bribery. " Xie Pengfei said that when others lent him more than 4 million yuan, he had already paid back more than 2 million yuan.
