China's state prosecutor said on Monday it had formally charged Jaycee Chan, son of kung fu movie star Jackie Chan, with a drugs offence, meaning he is almost certain to face trial.

The younger Chan, a 32-year-old actor and singer, was arrested in Beijing this year after testing positive for marijuana, with police saying they found 100 grams of the drug at his home.

In a brief statement on its official microblog, the Supreme People's Procuratorate said it had begun legal proceedings against him for "the crime of sheltering others to take drugs". 

Action and comedy star Jackie Chan, 60, served as a goodwill spokesman for the China National Anti-Drug Committee in 2009, state media reported, promoting anti-drug education.In August, he offered the public a "deep bow of apology" for his son's arrest.

China has detained some well-known people in recent months on drug-related charges, cases that have been spread widely in both state and social media. They have included movie and television stars, film directors and a famous screenwriter.

Drug crimes carry strict penalties in China including death or life imprisonment in serious cases.
