Nian faces delay over cash verdict

Nian Bin, who was released from prison after being cleared of murder, is still waiting to hear the outcome of his claim for State compensation, although a court has reached a decision on the matter.

Fuzhou Intermediate People's Court in Fujian province announced on its micro blog on Sunday that it had asked Nian and his lawyers to attend court on Monday to hear the judgment.

However, his elder sister Nian Jianlan said the family was not told of the development until Monday, and Nian did not have time to get to the court because he was in Shenzhen, Guangdong province.
