Chinese police has detained a suspect on charges of leaking national secrets to a foreign website.

警方拘留一名泄露国家机密给外国网站的嫌犯。

The seventy-year-old woman is now in custody. In August last year, a foreign website released a classified Chinese document, which was reprinted by many other agencies. A special team was organized to investigate the case. Policemen in Beijing narrowed their search down to the suspect in April this year, and found proof at her residence linking her to the case. The suspect confessed that she had obtained a copy of the document last June and type the contents of the document and provided it to the director of a foreign website. In 1993, she was convicted of similar offences and sentenced to six years in prison.
