Former Interpol Chairman Meng Hongwei's lawyer Masisi, hired by the family members, revealed on Monday (13th) that Meng Hongwei's wife Gao Gao and a pair of twin sons have obtained French political asylum.After returning to China in September last year, Meng Hongwei was unknown.

Marryi said that Gao Ge and his son were obtained on the 2nd of this month.Earlier this year, she claimed that someone attempted to kidnap her, so she had been protected by the police.

China officially sued Meng Hongwei for corruption this month, saying that he accepted bribes while serving as the director of the Maritime Police Department and the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Public Security and illegally accepting real estate.

However, Gao Ge pointed out that Chinese officials have not proposed any evidence to prove such allegations.
