Court upholds hacker's death sentence

Chinese court rejects appeal -- upholds death sentence for hacker nabbed in cyber bank robbery.

A Chinese court has upheld the death sentence for a man who hacked into the computer system of a state bank to steal money, the Financial News reported on Saturday.

The Yangzhou Intermediate People's Court in eastern Jiangsu province rejected the appeal of Hao Jingwen, upholding a death sentence imposed last year, the newspaper said.

Hao Jingwen and his brother Hao Jinglong hacked into the computer network of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and shifted 720,000 yuan ($87,000) into accounts they had opened under false names, it said.

They withdrew 260,000 yuan from the bank accounts September last year, the newspaper said.

Hao Jinglong, who was also originally sentenced to death, received a suspended death sentence in return for his testimony, it said.
