News of the Panama Papers and their disclosures triggered a prompt reaction from the stare-owned Global Times, which on April 5, 2016, said that very powerful entities are behind these manipulations and " For ordinary people, it is useless to wrestle with the power behind the leak, which can wield such a huge amount of documents".News reports about the disclosures claim that Xi Jinping's brother-in-law, Deng Jiagui, former Chinese Premier Li Peng's daughter Li Xiaoli and family members of two Politburo Standing Committee (PBSC) members viz. Zhang Gaoli and Liu Yunshun are involved. At least eight present or former members of the Politburo are said to figure in these 11 million documents.
