原上海市委書記陳良宇因涉嫌受賄二百四十萬元、濫用職權及玩忽職守，案件過去兩日(2008/3/26-27)在天津市第二中級人民法院審理。內地傳媒說，陳良宇精神狀態良好承認自己有責任但未明確表示有罪。陳良宇聘請兩名律師，他們都拒絕透露審訊情況。陳良宇被指擔任上海市黃浦區長至市委書記的二十多年間，利用職權，在項目審批、資金安排、招商合作、土地規劃及職務升遷等，為他人牟取利益，聯同家人受賄。他又支持上海市社保局，涉嫌違規貸款數十億元，包括為商人張榮坤控制的投資發展公司提供幫助，造成國有資產重大損失。
China condemned the former Communist chief of Shanghai for "totally betraying" party principles, state media Xinhua reported on Thursday (2007july26), promising to make a public example of him ahead of a key congress later this year. Chen Liangyu has been accused of abusing power to give cronies access to city social welfare funds, helping them illegally buy state-owned businesses, and "dallying with women and trading power for sex".

Hundreds of people have marched (1/12) through China's financial hub of Shanghai protesting a planned extension of the city's magnetic levitation train, or "maglev". Protestors expressed concern the maglev would emit radiation and causing them to become ill. Police detained dozens of people, bundling them into waiting cars, vans and buses, as protesters thronged a major shopping street shouting slogans. China has the only commercial maglev in operation in the world, developed and built by the government and a German consortium including industrial giant Siemens. Launched in 2003, the maglev floats on a magnetic cushion over a distance of 30 kilometres between an outlying part of Shanghai's financial district and the international airport.
