Jackie Chan's son Jaycee indicted on drug charge Monday Dec 22,2014

 

Chinese prosecutors on Monday Dec 22,2014 indicted the son of Hong Kong action film star Jackie Chan on the charge of sheltering others to use drugs, more than four months after he was detained.

If convicted, singer-actor Jaycee Chan could be jailed for up to three years.

Jaycee Chan(32)was among a string of celebrities detained over the summer for vices such as drug use and hiring prostitutes, as Beijing vowed to clean up social morals.

Jaycee Chan's case has been particularly embarrassing for his more famous father, who was named by Beijing as an anti-drug ambassador in 2009.

Beijing police detained Jaycee Chan at his Beijing apartment in August along with Taiwanese movie star Ko Kai. 

Police said Jaycee Chan and Ko both tested positive for marijuana and admitted using the drug, and that 100 grams (3.5 ounces) of it were taken from Chan's home.
