A Chinese court on Monday sentenced former Nanjing economic development official Yang Youlin to death after finding him guilty of accepting bribes worth more than 2.21 billion yuan, or about $325 million, over a period of three decades.

The punishment given to Yang Youlin is one of the harshest handed down in a corruption case in China in recent years.
