Police pull evidence out of woman's mouth

Police in Chongqing municipality had to pull the evidence from a woman's mouth - literally.

During an investigation into a corruption case, police learned that the owner of a furniture factory bribed university officials to win sales contracts.

On Monday morning, when police searched the boss's house, his wife suddenly tried to swallow a paper that listed the names of those they bribed. Police used force to retrieve the paper.
