Australian academic Yang Hengjun has received a suspended death sentence in China after five years of detention on espionage charges.
The Australian government expressed deep concern, calling in the Chinese ambassador to object formally.
The sentence allows for potential commutation to life imprisonment after two years.
Yang's deteriorating health raises urgent calls for his return to Australia.
