Zhao Zhihong, the man who confessed to the 1996 high-profile rape6 and murder of a woman, has been sentenced to death.
The crime has received much attention in recent months following the retrial and exoneration7 of an ethnic8 Mongolian teenager who was executed for the crime months after the woman was killed.
The boy's parents have received state compensation of over two million yuan for the wrongful execution of their son.
Hong Daode is a professor with China University of Political Science
"The money includes one million yuan in compensation for mental damages. This is good. One million yuan is a large amount of money for mental damage compensation in one case. This is a big breakthrough, as the amount is usually around 300 thousand yuan. This in itself is quite remarkable10, and also can be a good example for future cases."
When it comes to finding accountability for the government officials involved in the miscarriage12 of justice involving the executed teen, Hong says China needs to further improve its legal system.
"After the rehabilitation13, and compensation, it is kind of hard to take individuals to blame. This has taught us a lesson. Starting from now, in the legal system, we should have clear division of responsibility to the people instead of only to departments. Then, when a miscarriage of justice happens, it is possible to find who to blame."
The Hohhot Intermediate People's Court found Zhao guilty of raping14 and murdering a woman in the bathroom of a textile factory located in the Inner Mongolia regional capital.
The 42-year-old also confessed to raping seven other women and committing a string of robberies around the same time of the murder.
China executes five mafia-style gang members
Five gang members have been executed in Hubei province.
The five, including brothers Liu Han and Liu Wei, were among 34 defendants15 convicted of organizing, leading, or participating in a gang, as well as on murder charges, last May.
Five other defendants were sentenced to death with a two year reprieve16. Four received life in prison and the remaining 22 received prison terms of varying lengths.
The death sentences against the five executed men were upheld by the court in August.
The criminal group had monopolized17 the gaming business in Guanghan City, seriously harming local economic and social order.
The bodies of three mainlanders who died in the plane crash in Taiwan last week have been transported to Xiamen.
They are the first of 29 victims from the mainland to be returned from the island.
An official says the three victims were accompanied on the flight by family members.
The families of the other 26 mainland victims have yet to decide if their relatives will be cremated20 in Taiwan or transported home.
Forty people died in the crash. One flight attendant and 14 passengers survived.
Investigators21 are still looking for the bodies of three passengers. A memorial ceremony for the deceased will be held tomorrow in Taipei.
Xi plans to make state visit to US
It's been confirmed Chinese President Xi Jinping is going to be making his first state visit to the US as President.
Chinese ambassador Cui Tiankai says discussions are already underway about the logistics of the trip.
The date for Xi Jinping's trip has yet to be set.
The expected talks between Xi Jinping and Barack Obama are likely to focus on issues related to the Western Pacific.
Xi Jinping was last in the US for an informal summit with Obama in California in June 2013.
They met again at the APEC Summit in Beijing back in November.
China calls for G20's members to play greater role amid complex economic situation
Anchor:
China has called for G20 members to work together closely and improve coordination22, to better handle the world's complex economic situation.
The appeal was made in Istanbul on Sunday, just ahead of the first Ministerial Meeting under Turkey's G20 Presidency23.
CRI's Wang Wei has the details.
Reporter:
Financial officials and bankers from more than 40 countries have attended the conference.
Chinese Deputy Finance Minister Zhu Guangyao highlighted the risks facing the world economy.
"Now, global economy faces big challenges particularly uncertainty24 and complexity25. (At the) beginning of the year, IMF unfortunately downgraded global economic growth again from 3.8 percent to 3.5 percent. This is consecutively27 from last year IMF aready four times downgrade global growth in 2015."
According to Zhu, diverging28 monetary29 policies and the fall of oil prices are also sources of risk for the global economy.
He also adds that the economic slowdown in Europe is another risk, as Greece casts additional uncertainties30 to the euro zone.
Therefore, the minister has called on G20 members to join efforts to face the challenges.
"Now that's need more strong policy and real coordination on policy to promote economic sustainable development. And we really hope facing challenge of uncertainty and complexity this year's G20 agenda and Turkey's Presidency can really achieve its target."
The deputy minister has also stressed that China will continue to record strong and sustainable economic growth, contributing to the stable global economic development.
At the same time, the Turkish side has expressed willingness to interact with each member state to improve the global economy.
Turkey's Deputy Prime Minister Ali Babacan highlights the G20's significant role.
"G20 enables the countries to have a thorough discussion; you can have actual interactive31 dialogue. So that you have geographic32 representation, you have the developing and developed countries and so it focus on the global GDP. So the high presentation power and the ability to really discuss issues in an effective way is something I think make G20 quite a special one."
The G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting kicked off on Monday in Istanbul.
The two-day meeting provides an opportunity for dialogue between senior officials and private-sector33 leaders in the international financial community.
The topics range from inclusive growth, job creation, private sector support for infrastructure34 investment, and financial globalization.
For CRI, I'm Wang Wei.
US Senior Official Calls for Int'l Pressure on North Korea
New U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken has met with South Korea's first Vice35 Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yong in Seoul.
Both sides have exchanged comments on regional issues including North Korea.
Blinken says the pressure on North Korea should be sustained until the country shows its sincerity36 toward the issue of denuclearisation.
"Look, I think what we've seen working together is that the pressure that the international community has exerted on North Korea has made a meaningful difference in its ability to acquire materials for its weapons and missile programme to put pressure on it to move in a different direction."
Blinken stresses that ultimately it is up to North Korea to decide whether it is serious about having credible37 and authentic38 talks.
Blinken is on the first leg of a three-nation trip, including China and Japan.
New Minsk peace talks planned over Ukraine
Ukrainian forces remain in control of the strategic railway hub of Debaltseve in the east of the country, despite intense shelling by rebels.
Government troops say they haven't suffered any casualties so far.
The commander of the 25th volunteer battalion39 "Kievska Rus", who goes by the name "Vysota," explains the situation.
"We didn't have any direct encounters (with the rebels) today but our position was shelled by mortars40 and one particular position was fired at with GRAD rockets. Fortunately no one was killed, but the situation is rather difficult, but we will overcome it."
Ukrainian tanks, Armoured Personnel Carriers, and howitzers could be seen moving toward Debaltseve, while several wounded Ukrainian soldiers were taken to hospital in a nearby town.

German Chancellor44 Angela Merkel says it is uncertain whether further negotiations45 would lead to a deal with Putin. However, she argued that all opportunities for a diplomatic solution should be pursued.
For more on this, CRI's John Artman spoke46 to Feng Zhongping, Vice President, China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations.
More than 5,000 civilians47, Ukrainian soldiers and pro-separatist fighters have been killed since a separatist rebellion erupted in Ukraine's eastern territories in April.
Egyptian-Russian cooperation would benefit regional stability: expert
Russian president Vladimir Putin's two-day visit to Egypt holds special significance, with experts saying Egyptian-Russian cooperation could benefit stability and peace in the region.
Putin is right now on his first state visit to Egypt in 10 years.
During the visit, an arms deal is expected to be signed to aid the Egyptian army.
"Both countries have a similar stand concerning the Syrian crisis; they condemn49 the violence in Syria. Both are also similar in that they recognize a Palestinian independent state concerning the Palestinian-Israeli file."
The expert says Russia's significance in Egypt stretches beyond politics.
"Russia helped Egypt build the high dam with a 2% interest loan while the world Bank wanted 19% interests. We even paid the loan in fruits and oranges. Russia also built all the heavy industry that drove the economy such as the steel industry, aluminum50, and textiles industry and others."
IAEA to Review Decommissioning Work at Japan's Nuclear Plant
Experts with the International Atomic Energy Agency will review Japan's decommissioning work at Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant this week.
The IAEA says that leaks of contaminated water remain a challenging issue.
Tokyo Electric Power Company has struggled with the unprecedented52 task to decommission the facility following the devastating53 earthquake and tsunami54 of 2011.
The company has proposed building a 1.4-km underground wall of ice to block groundwater from seeping55 into the Pacific Ocean.
Juan Lentijo is the IAEA Director of the Division of Nuclear Fuel Cycle and Waste Technology.
"One of our objectives in this mission is to review up to what extent these countermeasures progressed, and the situation has been improved since 2013."
The team of 15 experts will visit the Fukushima site to observe the decommissioning work and release a report next week.

First, let's have a look at the numbers across the Asian markets on this Monday evening.
Joining me on the desk is Tu Yun.
Reporter:
Chinese stocks closed higher after the launch of the country's first stock option.
At close, both the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index and the Shenzhen Component59 Index gained around two thirds of a percent.
Total turnover60 on the two bourses shrank to over 70 billion U.S. dollars, the lowest in three months.
In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng Index dropped by two thirds of a percent, dampened by the losses in the blue chips.
Elsewhere in Asia,
The Japanese Nikkei added two fifth of a percent. Gains were limited due to weak Chinese trade data.
South Korea's KOSPI Composite Index dropped nearly half a percent.
Singapore's Straits Times index lost nearly two fifths of a percent.
And finally, Australia's ASX 200 closed almost flat.
China launched its first stock options on the Shanghai Stock Exchange today, offering investors a new hedging tool for trading index heavyweights, which regulators long have hoped to boost.
The options are based on the exchange-trade fund that tracks the SSE50 index, composed of the 50 most heavily weighted stocks on the bourse.
"Stock option is a new business for us, and there's been a lot of preparation before the launch of its trading. But it's not until recently that have we finalized64 the paperwork for private investors, and therefore we do not have an exact number of people who have opened accounts."
Regulators are essentially65 guiding investors into blue chips, which most investors have avoided in favor of smaller firms.
Components66 in the SSE50 index have average price-to-earnings ratios of 10 times, compared with 17 times for the broader market.
Options will allow investors to hedge their investments but may also expose speculators to heavy losses.
The premium67 is the price of option contracts, or the money that investors pay to own option rights.
Analysts68 forecast the product will have a slow start due to regulatory restrictions69 to curb70 risk, although they believe it will benefit Chinese equity markets in the long run.
The retail price of regular gasoline here in China will rise tomorrow, following the National Development and Reform Commission's latest adjustment.
The top economic planner says the retail price of gasoline will rise by 290 Yuan per ton and diesel by 280 Yuan per ton.
This will lead to retail prices of some 6 Yuan per liter. Oil prices had dropped in each of the 13 previous adjustments.
Retail gas prices in China rise when international crude prices change by more than 50 Yuan per ton over a period of 10 working days.
British bank HSBC admitted its Swiss subsidiary helped wealthy customers dodge73 taxes and conceal millions of dollars of assets.
Earlier media reports by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists revealed how HSBC used the secretive Swiss banking74 system to conceal the identities of accounts holders75 to avoid paying taxes.
The number of accounts in HSBC Swiss private bank have fallen from 30-thousand to 10-thousand in the past 7 years.
Swiss authorities have charged the worker with industrial espionage77 and breaching78 the country's secrecy79 laws.
Bank of China in Sydney becomes RMB clearing bank in Australia
The Bank of China's Sydney branch has officially become the clearing bank for renminbi in Australia.
This means that transactions between Australian firms and their Chinese mainland counterparts using the Chinese currency can be done more efficiently80.
The move follows years of efforts by banks and regulators to remove barriers to direct currency conversion81 between Australian dollars and the yuan.
By increasing their familiarity with the RMB, local financial institutions, investors, and firms are more likely to use the currency.

U.S. regulators have reached a deal with the China-based units of the "Big Four" accounting83 firms after a lengthy84 dispute over their 2012 refusal to turn over documents connected to Chinese companies under investigation.
The settlement involves the China units of Deloitte, Ernst & Young, KPMG, and PricewaterhouseCoopers.
Each company is going to pay a 500-thousand US dollar fine.
The Securities and Exchange Commission sued the firms in 2012 amid a dispute over the release of documents the firms argued would break Chinese secrecy laws.
For more on the settlement, Beijing Hour's Paul James spoke earlier with Mike Bastin, Director of The China Business Centre based in London.
New Zealand, Chinese customs move toward electronic trade verification
China and New Zealand's customs authorities are to set up a new system to enhance trade.
A new assurance system would involve electronic verification under the New Zealand-China Free Trade Agreement signed in 2008.
New Zealand Customs Minister Nicky Wagner says the new system will ensure exports travel smoothly85, with standard documents from both sides.
Insiders say the joint86 electronic verification system will include tariff87 preference for Chinese traders.
In 2013, New Zealand meat was left sitting on Chinese wharves88, after the failure to properly inform Chinese customs officials about changes in export certification.

A rare anti-graft themed crosstalk will be featured in the 2015 Spring Festival Gala reportedly with rehearsals100 held last week.
Pundits101 believe allowing the traditional Chinese two-man comedic performance is another sign that Chinese authorities are confident in dealing102 with corruption issues under the nationwide anti-graft campaign.
The traditional Chinese crosstalk will be performed by two new stars from a popular comedy group based in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province.
The only other time a similar-topic crosstalk was performed in the gala was in 1988.
Ha Wen, this year's gala director, said that vulgar programs and performers who have moral issues will not appear in the show.

"Lung disease in coal mining claims far more lives than accidents do"
A recent report says 62 percent of patients with a lung disease caused by dust inhalation come from the coal mining industry, and its death toll103 far outnumbers those in mining accidents, highlighting a significant danger to miners' health.
More than 720-thousand workers nationwide have reported their disease to the China Coal Miner Pneumoconiosis Prevention and Treatment Foundation.
The foundation has spent more than 113 million yuan, or 18 million US dollars, and has provided assistance for the treatment of more than 125-thousand patients. But it's far from enough to cover the large group of workers suffering from the ailment.
It's estimated that there are 6 million workers with black lung nationwide and 90 percent are rural residents.
Meanwhile, the death toll from mining accidents declined to 1,067 in 2013, down from about 7-thousand annually105 15 years ago.

"Canada to allow doctor-assisted suicide"
Canada's Supreme106 Court has ruled that doctors may help patients who have severe and incurable107 medical conditions to die, overturning a 1993 ban.
In a unanimous decision, the court said the law impinged on Canadians' rights.
The case was brought by a civil rights group on behalf of two women, Kay Carter and Gloria Taylor, with degenerative diseases. Both have since died.
The government now has a year to rewrite its law on assisted suicide.
If it does not, the current law will be struck down.
Assisted suicide is legal in several European countries and a few US states.
In Canada it is illegal to counsel, aid or abet108 a suicide, and the offence carries up to 14 years in prison.

"Researchers tag sharks to protect Australian swimmers"
Australian scientists are catching109 and tagging tiger sharks in an effort to stop deadly attacks on humans.
A shark researcher from the University of Queensland said the research team was working with non-profit global shark research organization OCEARCH and is using satellite, acoustic110 and accelerometer tags, and even cameras to track tiger sharks.
The study follows a series of fatal shark attacks in Australian waters, the latest on Monday when a surfer was killed by a 4 meter-long shark.
Researchers are also collecting genetic111 information from fin11 clips and taking blood samples for analysis.
They say if they could discover why tiger sharks came into inshore waters, it could help protect the species and keep people safer.
Tiger sharks migrated up and down the Australian east coast, but scientists knew little about their mating habits.

A new public awareness campaign for elephants has been launched in Beijing involving an electrically-controlled elephant in a shopping mall in downtown Beijing.
Reporter:
People in Beijing are now able to touch and play with a cute electrically-controled elephant inside this shopping mall.
IFAW communication officer Zhang Qi says people can actually communicate with Elephant Laura with stomps113 and even take a shower with her.
Laura is an elephant full of stories. A book about her and her family has hit shop and library bookshelves in China.
Girl "I am Xie Wenxuan. I am 9 years old and I am a third grader. Killing114 elephants and trading ivory is wrong."
Boy "We are not capable of actually doing something for them over in Africa, but we can do our best to tell people their stories."
Man "I didn't know ivories come from dead elephants, now I'll tell my friends never consume ivory anymore."
Grace Ge is the Asia Regional Director of IFAW. She says illegal ivory trade in Africa remains alarming.
"In Africa, Elephants are being killed for the ivory trade. And it's very alarming, their populations, they're disappearing. Every link on this chain, from poaching to trafficking of ivory to consuming ivory is full of blood."
The latest figures from IFAW estimate that at least 10-thousand elephants have been killed in Africa in the past three years.
UN figures also suggest that at least 60 percent of the deaths of elephants in Africa in the past decade were caused by poaching. In some places, this number could be as high as 90 percent.
"When the buying stops, the hunting stops as well. If there is a market for wildlife parts, the hunting will definitely be going on."
Some other wildlife experts also argue that illegal ivory trading can be actually destructive to local economy, since it can make the country look bad to tourists and hurt the backbone115 of many African economies - tourism.
Ge says the government should put stricter laws on illegal ivory trading so as to cut off the source of the business.
"Because consumers cannot tell which is legal ivory and which is illegal ivory. Once illegal ivory gets smuggled116 into China and sold in the market, the consumers would not able to tell and law enforcement officers could not tell."
As a signatory of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora117 and Fauna118 or CITES, China has stepped up efforts in curtailing119 ivory smuggling120. Government figures show the number of illegal wildlife smuggling cases last year dropped 70 percent from the year earlier.

Defending champions Czech Republic completed a 4-0 rout over Fed Cup World Group newcomers Canada in Quebec, and will now go through to face France in the semi-finals.
Playing without their number one player Eugenie Bouchard - who elected to skip the competition - and trailing 0-2 after Saturday's opening singles, it was up to Gabriela Dabrowski to keep Canada in the tie.
And she got off to a promising125 start in front of the home fans - taking a 4-1 lead in the first set against Karolina Pliskova.
The Canadian mixed up her game with slices, drop shots and visits to the net, forcing Pliskova to make some uncharacteristic unforced errors.
But Canada's hopes swiftly evaporated as Pliskova, ranked 22 in the world to Dabrowski's 185, regained126 her focus and won five consecutive26 games to take the first set 6-4.
And Pliskova never looked back in the second set, dominating from start to finish and reeling off 11 of the last 13 games to win 6-4, 6-2.
This victory gave Czech Republic an unassailable 3-0 lead and ensured them of their place in the semi-finals for the seventh straight year.
With the tie already won, the Czechs completed a clean sweep when Denisa Allertova and Lucie Hradecka defeated Dabrowski and Francois Abanda 6-1, 7-6 in the dead rubber doubles.

The surprise of the night was Beck winning Album of the Year for his record Morning Phase. The competition for this category was tough, as he was up against Beyonce, Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran. This has started an interesting conversation on social media with many people on Twitter asking who Beck is. Kanye West has yet again sparked fury after he declared that Beyonce should have won as she was a real artist.

The film opened yesterday on some 4,000 screens. Preliminary estimated data points to an opening day score of 10 million U.S. dollars.
This puts it miles ahead of the previous Hunger Games film Catching Fire which took just under 13 million dollars in its first full weekend.
The film follows Katniss Everdeen played by Jennifer Lawrence in the aftermath of escaping the Hunger Games. Under the advice of President Coin and her friends she fights to save Peeta and a nation moved by her courage.
The gross for Mockingjay – Part 1 in North America currently stands at 336 million dollars with an international running total of almost 380 million before the Chinese contribution.
BAFTA awards take place in London
In further awards show news, the British Film Academy Awards took place last night in London.
Coming of age drama Boyhood scooped137 three prizes including best film and director while The Grand Budapest Hotel took five awards but missed out on the most prestigious138 categories.
Richard Linklater won the director award for Boyhood which he filmed over a 12 year period. Ethan Hawke picked up the award on behalf of the director.
"The unbelievable light that comes from them and their generosity139 and their creativity and their playfulness. They went for this. There is nothing more fun in the world than over twelve years to watch these kids grow up. The easy part was making the movie, the hard part was giving it to the world and we are so proud."
Eddie Redmayne took the leading actor award for his portrayal140 of Stephen Hawking141, a celebrated142 cosmologist who is paralysed by motor neuron disease in The Theory of Everything. The film also won the award for outstanding British film.
"Really this award belongs to one incredible family and they're here this evening. I would like to thank them. I would like to thank them for their trust in us, for their generosity and their kindness and for reminding me of the great strength that comes from the will to live a full and passionate143 life."
The Theory of everything took three awards in total. The Imitation Game starring Benedict Cumberbatch failed to convert any of its nine nominations144.
The BAFTAs are often seen as indicators145 to the Oscars which will take place on February 22.
Justin Bieber's shoes have sold for 62,000 dollars at a charity auction.
They were sold on the online auction site ebay to raise money for a food bank in the singer's hometown of Stratford, Ontario.
The Nike baseball shoes were among a collection of signed childhood items donated by Justin Bieber's grandparents to go towards the food bank.
Other items sold include Bieber's Toronto Maple147 Leafs comforter, a pillowcase and ceiling light. The ceiling light raised two thousand dollars.
The auction began on January 31 and concluded at the weekend.
Earlier this week, the singer uploaded two clips to photo sharing site Instagram featuring snippets of his new material.
