China sentences Chinese-Canadian pop star Kris Wu to 13 years for sex crimes

Chinese Canadian pop star Kris Wu, also known as Wu Yifan, was sentenced Friday to 13 years in prison after a Chinese court in Beijing found him guilty of sexual offenses, including rape.

The Chinese court gave Wu 11 years and 6 months for a 2020 rape and 1 year and 10 months for the "crime of assembling a crowd to engage in sexual promiscuity" in a 2018 event. Wu and others allegedly assaulted two women they had gotten drunk.

The Beijing’s Chaoyang District Court said the three victims in the rape case had also been drunk and were unable to consent.
