Gabriel Martin is a 40-year-old businessman from Uruguay. Now he has settled in Wuhu City of east China's Anhui Province, running a steakhouse near the Qingyi River, a tributary of the Yangtze River. Martin was deeply impressed by China while watching the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games on TV when he was 24 and later granted an opportunity to continue his study in east China's Shanghai in 2012. During his stay in Shanghai, he realized that China's huge market and Uruguay's large production of high-quality beef could be a great match. Therefore, Martin embarked on the beef trade between China and Uruguay and met his wife Zhang Jin. In 2017, they settled in Zhang's hometown of Wuhu City.

The District Court in Opava decided today, on Thursday, October 24, 2019, to remand convicted murderer Petra Janakova (not on the photo), who was temporarily released from prison over her pregnancy, in custody in connection with her fresh prosecution over suspected false accusation. Janakova, who recently changed her name to Nova, appealed the decision. The court concluded that she might avoid prosecution and her later punishment, state attorney Michal Koflak (photo) said after today's court meeting behind closed doors. She is yet to spend 28 years behind bars. Koflak said social workers are taking care of the baby. Janakova was sentenced to 30 years in prison for having shot a collector dead in 2017. However, she became pregnant mysteriously in a custody prison in Hradec Kralove in January. Her prison term was therefore interrupted under a valid law and she was released in June.
