China's State Council has found that seventy one people were held responsible for the spectacular fire that engulfed a section of the new headquarters of China Central Television in February 2009. The fire resulted in the death of one fireman and caused over 163 million yuan (23.99 million US dollars) worth of economic losses.
Zhao Huayong, who stepped down as head of the state broadcaster in May 2009 after reaching the official retirement age of 60, will receive a administrative demotion along with a severe warning from the communist party.
