Alize Cornet raises her concerns about Shuai Peng’s disappearance after her fellow tennis player accused 75-year-old former top politician Zhang Gaoli of forcing her to have sex.
Shuai (35) posted a long statement on Weibo that was censored and deleted after just 20 minutes. According to the Chinese player, she and Zhang (who is married) have been involved in an affair dating back to 2011. Later, he cut her out after he was promoted to the Bureau. He served as the Senior Vice Premier of the People’s Republic of China between 2013 and 2018.
According to Shuai after retiring from politics, he invited Peng for dinner with his wife to then pressure her into sex. Eventually, she accepted reluctantly. Zhang confirmed that she had no evidence that there was any affair as Gaoli was very careful in keeping the affair secret.
Obviously, the Chinese government refused to comment on the issue.Apparently, Peng Shuai’s account shut down after the latest allegations.
