A Beijing court has sentenced the Chinese-born Canadian pop star Kris Wu to 13 years in jail after finding him guilty of crimes including rape, just over a year after his arrest in China, where he was born and built a lucrative career.
The court in Chaoyang district said investigations showed that from November to December 2020, Wu, also known as Wu Yifan, raped three women.
“Wu Yifan took advantage of three drunken women … at his home,” the court said on its official WeChat account.
A former member of the K-pop group Exo, the superstar returned to China in 2014 to pursue a solo career.
Wu was detained in Beijing on 31 July 2021 after an 18-year-old Chinese student publicly accused him of inducing her and other girls, some aged under 18, to have sex with him.
At the time, the student told media Wu had lured her into having sex when she was 17, after having plied her with alcohol.
