The second trial of Beijing lawyer Li Zhuang will be held at Chongqing No.1 Intermediate People's Court at 9:30 am on Feb 2, the Changjiang Daily reported Saturday.
Li's attorney, Gao Zicheng, said he received a formal notice from the court on Jan 29, and then flew to Chongqing to meet the imprisoned Li, who was "in good condition" and ready for a second round in court.
Gao also said he would plead not guilty on behalf of his client and provide new evidence.
Wen Qiang will go on public trial on Feb 2 on charges accusing him of being involved in mafia-style gangs and organized crime at Chongqing No.1 Intermediate People's Court.
