'House Sister' gets 3-year sentence

A woman who forged and bought State documents was sentenced to three years of prison on Sunday by Jingbian County People's Court. Gong Aiai, a resident of Shenmu, paid 300,000 yuan ($49,000) for several ID cards for Beijing and Shanxi province. Gong has become famous among micro-bloggers for reportedly having 41 houses in Beijing, inspiring netizens to dub her "House Sister". Police have found no evidence that Gong obtained the houses illegally, and she denied in court that she forged State documents.
