A female official, in Qingyuan City of south China's Guangdong Province, was
sentenced to death Friday on charges of embezzlement and all her personal
property was confiscated, according to the verdict of the Guanzhou Municipal
Intermediate People's Court at the first trial.

yuan (US$1.2 million) and misappropriating 2 million yuan (US$241,000), according to
