A Shandong province court has rejected an appeal by the lawyer of Chinese journalist Qi Chonghuai.
Qi was jailed for reporting on corruption. Two weeks before he completed his four-year jail term, the same court sentenced him to eight more years in jail.
Human rights advocates condemn the second conviction, saying it’s a violation of Chinese law.
