The investigation is continuing.
Wang said she met Sun in 1997 when she was conducing an interview at a brewery in Shuangcheng where Sun was the manager.
"He tried all means to approach me and even hired my husband, who is a lawyer, as his legal assistant at that time," she said.
Sun later used a tape recording of himself and Wang having sex to coerce Wang to maintain the relationship. Wang, the host of a TV news program at the time, said she was mindful of her reputation, and did not want to lose her job at the TV station.
Wang left the TV station in 2001 to go into business. She divorced her husband in 2005.
However, Wang's business activities were not successful and she was forced to sell her car in order to repay debts. In 2011, Wang borrowed 150,000 yuan ($24,000) from Sun after she ran into financial difficulty. She failed to repay the debt to Sun on time, which triggered conflict between the two, according to a Beijing Times report.
