Court Acquits Former Coal Officials, Convicts Firm in Allocation Case

Imagine the government lets companies dig up coal, like giving out special permits.

This story is about a company that got one of these permits, but may have cheated.

A court said the former head of coal is not guilty.

However, a company and its director were convicted of wrongdoing.

The court is deciding what will happen to them now, but the former coal secretary, along with two others, have been found not guilty.
