Philandering deputy dismissed (2)

Wang said she first met Sun in 1996, when she shot a segment for her television show at a local brewery where Sun was the manager.

Wang told the paper that Sun forced her to have sex in a car after a dinner date when she was drunk. She said he made an audio recording of the rendezvous, which he threatened to make public if Wang tried to end their encounters.

Wang said she was even forced to have sex with Sun in late 1999, when she was seven-months pregnant. Her husband divorced her in 2005 after discovering her relationship with Sun.

"At the time, vanity and reputation mattered more to me than anything else and I couldn't afford to lose the job," Wang was quoted as saying.

Sun also arranged to provide Wang's mother with pension in 2003 by making her a retiree of the brewery even though she had never worked there. Wang's mother said she began to receive a pension in 2003 and has collected tens of thousands of yuan.
