A Chinese court sentenced former justice minister Tang Yijun to life imprisonment, citing acceptance of payments totaling 137 million yuan in connection with assistance on IPOs, loans, and land matters, according to the source. The case reinforces signals of sustained enforcement intensity across senior civilian and security-linked institutions, with implications for regulatory timelines and counterparty risk.
The source argues that several international claims about the Taliban’s January 2026 criminal procedure code overstate what the Pashto statutory text explicitly establishes. It nonetheless assesses the code as strategically significant for consolidating judicial discretion, weakening procedural safeguards, and expanding reliance on uncodified jurisprudence.
