The verdict is out and there is no special treatment for celebrities in the strict Chinese penal system. Disgraced Canadian-Chinese star Wu Yi Fan (also known as Kris Wu) has been sentenced by the Beijing court to a total of 13 years in jail today after his trial earlier this year in June. This follows his arrest last August 2021 when an internet gravure girl named Du Mei Zhu went public with his various crimes – the most serious being selecting young women for sex and rape. After his arrest all his online presence has been scrubbed and his movies/dramas taken down from streaming. The prison sentence includes 11.5 years for rape and 1.5 years for group sexual misconduct. The sentence also includes expulsion from the country so he will be deported to Canada after serving his sentence as he’s a Canadian citizen. Thus concludes the astronomical rise and even more swift and serious fall of Wu Yi Fan in less than 10 years in the industry.
