Print Edition
THREE officials are being probed for alleged duty dereliction following a bridge collapse in south China’s Guangdong Province that killed 11 and injured 16, the Supreme People’s Procuratorate said in a statement yesterday.
Deng Guoyi, head of the Shenzhen Township, Xie Hanwei, deputy chairman of the township legislature, and Tang Youqing, head of the township’s work safety bureau, are under investigation.
On May 3, a stone arch bridge under construction in Liangping Village, Shenzhen Township of Gaozhou City collapsed.
Four people, including the village committee director, two people from the construction contractor and a township official, were detained afterward.
The unlicensed bridge was built by the village. The local government ordered work to stop in April, but it resumed during the Labor Day holiday.
