A Shandong-based businessman has been handed a life sentence for an elaborate food fraud scheme involving the sale of pork products fraudulently marketed as donkey meat. Sun Shengkui, operating from Dong'e in Shandong Province, was convicted by the Shangqiu Intermediate People's Court in Henan Province on December 31, 2025, for selling counterfeit donkey meat products totaling over 105 million yuan[1]. The defendant and his company, Shandong Lü Beibei Food Co., Ltd., engaged in the illicit scheme between October 1, 2021, and January 18, 2023[1]. In addition to the life sentence, Sun was permanently stripped of political rights and all personal assets were ordered confiscated[1].
The case has drawn significant attention due to the exceptionally high amount involved and raised questions within legal circles regarding sentencing standards for such offenses. The conviction was based on provisions in China's Criminal Law that permit sentences of fifteen years to life imprisonment for selling defective products with damages exceeding 2 million yuan[1]. That threshold was established in 1997[1]. Sun has contested the conviction, stating that "neither I nor my employees knew this constituted a crime"[1]. The case is scheduled for a second-instance hearing at the Jiangsu Provincial Higher People's Court on June 10, 2026[1].
