Alleged gang leader rats out attorney
CHONGQING: The defense attorney for a mafia-style gang boss was arrested on Saturday for allegedly fabricating evidence and instructing his client to make the claim that police had tortured him for eight days during an interrogation.
Lawyer Li Zhuang also told suspected gang leader and billionaire Gong Gangmo to give false court statements, according to the city government's press office on Sunday.
Apparently, Gong told police of the lawyer's misconduct to atone for his crimes and his concerns that his false statements would eventually be discovered.
