How many years is the sentence for the crime of slander and slander in the Chinese Constitution? Article 42 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Administrative Penalties for Public Security shall be detained for not more than 5 days or fined not more than 500 yuan for any of the following acts:; If the circumstances are relatively serious, he shall be detained for not less than 5 days but not more than 10 days, and may also be fined not more than 500 yuan: (1) writing threatening letters or threatening the personal safety of others by other means; （2） Openly insulting others or fabricating facts to slander others; （3） Fabricating facts to falsely accuse and frame another person in an attempt to subject another person to criminal investigation or public security administration punishment; （4） Threatening, insulting, beating or retaliating against a witness or his close relatives;
How to punish if there is a criminal offence? Article 246 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China: Whoever commits the crime of insult or slander, publicly insults another person or fabricates facts to slander another person by violence or other means, if the circumstances are serious, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, public surveillance or deprivation of political rights. The crime mentioned in the preceding paragraph shall be handled only upon complaint, with the exception of those seriously endangering public order and the interests of the State. When the victim commits the act specified in the first paragraph through the information network and tells the people's court, but it is really difficult to provide evidence, the people's court may request the public security organ to provide assistance. This crime must be intentional subjectively. The perpetrator knows that what he spreads is a false fact that is enough to damage the reputation of others, knows that his behavior will cause harm to the reputation of others, and hopes that this result will happen. The purpose of the actor is to discredit others. If the perpetrator spreads false facts by mistaking them as true facts, or spreads some false facts without the purpose of harming others' reputation, it does not constitute a crime of defamation. I hope the above answers are helpful to you.
