Many people were defrauded of just a hundred or two hundred yuan, and not only is it difficult to provide evidence, many of the defrauded migrant workers have already left Dongfang City and cannot be contacted.
Therefore, in the end, it was discovered that the amount of money returned in compensation amounted to less than thirty percent of the illegal earnings.
However, the indictment from the prosecutor's office left him in complete despair.
It suggested a sentence of six years of fixed-term imprisonment and a fine of eight million yuan!
Is that a lot of money? It's a considerable sum, but high fines are common for the crime of illegal business operations.
According to judicial interpretation, in particularly serious cases of illegal business operations, the penalty is a fixed-term imprisonment of five years or more and a fine of at least double and up to five times the illegal income, or confiscation of property.
