61 officials locked up in 2008 for graft
Sixty-one high-level Shanghai government officials were jailed for corruption or taking bribes last year.
The officials include four bureau heads and 57 division chiefs. A total of 303 corruption and bribery cases were handled by the city's courts last year, 23 percent fewer than in 2007.
In one high-profile case, Yin Guoyuan, the former vice director of the Shanghai Housing, Land and Resource Administration, was sentenced to death for taking bribes and holding assets from unknown sources.
Ying Yong, president of the Shanghai Higher People's Court, made his annual work report to the Shanghai People's Congress yesterday and noted courts of different levels had handled 367,500 cases last year, an increase of 8.5 percent on the previous year.
Chen Xu, president of the Shanghai People's Prosecutor's Office, told law makers that prosecutors in the city approved 29,305 arrests last year, 6 percent more than in 2007.
Requests for the arrests of another 439 suspects were rejected, Chen told SPC delegates.
The Standing Committee of the SPC told the general meeting of 800-plus deputies that the top legislative body plans to introduce 53 new laws and regulations by 2012.
They will cover the supervision and management of state-owned assets, the development of small and medium enterprises, employment stimulation and property.
Another 141 legislative items are on the waiting list, Liu Yungeng, director of the SPC standing committee, said.
By yesterday, the SPC session had received 90 proposals from its deputies, most of them dealing with everyday issues such as education, transport and employment.
