"I felt greatly relieved after returning to China. My life as a fugitive had finally ended," said Huang Haiyong, an economic fugitive who was extradited from Peru in 2016 after spending 18 years on the run.
Huang, former head of Yuwei Trading Industry Co Ltd in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, stands accused of smuggling goods worth 1.22 billion yuan ($179 million) and evading 717 million yuan in taxes. He fled to Peru in 1998 and was detained there in 2008. China then started an eight-year extradition process for his return to face trial.
