BEIJING—Former Interpol chief Meng Hongwei admitted his guilt during a court hearing on June 20 after Chinese prosecutors accused him of taking 14.5 million yuan ($2.11 million) in bribes, state media said.
Interpol, the global police coordination agency based in France, stated in October 2018 that Meng had resigned as its president, days after his wife reported him missing after he traveled back to his home country of China.
