CHINA-POLITICS-CORRUPTION-JUSTICE-BO

TO GO WITH China-politics-corruption-justice-Bo,FOCUS by Neil Connor and Tom Hancock This photo taken on February 4, 2013 shows a guardian angel statue outside a hotel in the Nan'an district which was an area politically loyal to Bo Xilai and one of the two hotels where murdered British businessman Neil Heywood stayed at during his last week alive in Chongqing. A year after Chongqing's police chief set off China's biggest scandal in decades, the megacity has seen revelations of torture, corruption and rights abuses, but little revolutionary change. On February 6, 2012 Wang Lijun fled to a US consulate seeking asylum after falling out with his patron Bo Xilai -- then a member of the ruling Communist Party's elite Politburo, now held at a secret location awaiting trial for crimes including abuse of power and bribery.
