BEIJING: Two Chinese hotel workers were sentenced to life in prison yesterday for organising a sex romp involving hundreds of Japanese tourists in a case that hit a raw nerve in China and sparked public outrage.
Twelve other Chinese people were sentenced to prison terms of up to 15 years and police asked Interpol to help find three Japanese suspected of soliciting prostitutes for the orgy, which coincided with the 72nd anniversary of the start of Japan's occupation of China, the official Xinhua news agency said.
