Mr Ching, the chief China correspondent for Singapore's Straits Times, had been detained since late April. 

China accuses him of buying information and passing it to Taiwan's intelligence services over a period of five years from 2000 to March 2005. 

If Mr Ching is convicted, he could face the death penalty.
