**Zhang Youxia’s January 2026 investigation for “serious violations of discipline and law” has not progressed to formal charges or a public trial by mid-2026.** High-level PLA cases typically involve extended internal party reviews before any court action, and comparable CMC-level probes have taken years to reach sentencing. No trial date or judicial outcome has been announced since the Defense Ministry statement, consistent with the pattern seen in earlier cases such as those of Wei Fenghe and Li Shangfu. Traders therefore assign only a 9.5% probability to a court-imposed prison sentence occurring before the December 31, 2026 resolution deadline, reflecting the slow pace of China’s military justice process for senior officials.
