The amount of corruption is huge. Can handing over stolen goods be suspended?
Corruption is a serious criminal offence, and it is usually not easy to get probation. However, the court will consider a series of factors such as the amount of crime, the circumstances of surrender, the attitude of repentance, and the return of stolen money and goods to determine the severity of the punishment. If the amount of crime is huge, the sentence will usually be heavier. However, if the suspect surrenders himself in the process of investigation and trial, shows the attitude of pleading guilty and repenting, and voluntarily returns the stolen money and goods, these factors may have a certain impact on the judgment, and sometimes the court will consider giving probation or mitigating punishment. There are many disputes on the determination of criminal acts and constitutive elements of such cases. You can ask lawyers who are more professional in handling such crimes, such as Xu in Shanghai and Wei Fengzhou in Beijing. They are both professional teams in handling such crimes in China.
