China has executed a mining tycoon found guilty of murder and running a "mafia-style" organization, state media reported Monday.

据中国媒体周一报道，法院依法对参与黑社会性质组织罪、故意杀人罪的刘汉执行死刑。

Liu Han, 48, the former chairman of Hanlong Group, was executed along with his brother, Liu Wei, and three associates, official news agency Xinhua reported.

48岁的刘汉是四川汉龙集团的前董事长，他的兄弟刘维和其他三名同伙也被执行了死刑。

The men met with their families before they were executed, Xinhua said.

在死刑之前他们与各自亲属会见。

Liu has been linked by state media to former security czar Zhou Yongkang -- the most senior official snared in China's anti-corruption campaign.

据报道，刘汉与前公安部部长周永康存在联系。周永康是反腐运动中落马的职位最高的官员。

Hanlong's interests included mining, real estate, electricity, energy and finance and the company remains a shareholder in two Australian companies - Moly Group and Sundance Resources.

汉龙集团的利益分布在矿产、房地产、电力、能源和金融，该公司还是Moly Group和Sundance Resources两家澳大利亚公司的股东。

Liu was detained in 2013 along with his younger brother. They were sentenced to death in May 2014.

刘汉和刘维在2013年被逮捕。2014年5月他们被法院判处死刑。

The Liu brothers started out running gambling dens in their base in Guanghan, in China's southwestern Sichuan province, in the early 1990s, gathering around them "a gang of local thugs and vagrants," state media reported around the time of their trial.

据报道，刘汉和刘维在上世纪90年代初在四川广汉非法开设赌博窝点，并且集结了一帮打手。

The brothers' empire grew, before finally attracting the attention of central authorities with an alleged public shooting at a Guanghan teahouse one afternoon in January, 2009, supposedly ordered by Liu Wei and directed at an underworld rival.

随着他们的霸业逐渐壮大，他们也渐渐引起了中央当局的注意。据报道，2009年1月在四川广汉街头的一个茶铺里突发枪案，幕后主使为刘维，其目的是报复同道竞争对手。

Liu Han also developed a reputation as a philanthropist, building a rural school campus following a 2008 earthquake that devastated Sichuan. His brother also had a reputation for charity, and had been a torch-bearer in the build-up to the Beijing Olympics, also in 2008.

刘汉曾建立了慈善家的名声，在2008年汶川地震后他出资在当地农村建了一所校园。刘维在慈善事业上同样也具有声望，他还曾在2008年北京奥运会以火炬手的名义参与了火炬传递仪式。
