5 fired over judicial corruption
Print Edition
Five officials have been sacked or punished for interfering in court cases, in the first enforcement of regulations that aim to purge corruption and undue influence from the judiciary.
President Xi Jinping has been driving a sweeping crackdown on deep-rooted graft since taking over the leadership of the Communist Party in late 2012. Since then dozens of senior officials have been investigated or jailed.
The regulations were adopted in March after an announcement last October following a key meeting of Party leaders, and aim to make it tougher for local officials to influence courts.
Chen Hai鈥檕u, a former presiding judge of the Beijing Higher People鈥檚 Court, was sacked after seeking several favors for associates through court personnel, Xinhua news agency said on Friday.
In another case, anti-graft authorities investigated a Party boss after he asked for a lighter sentence for a friend facing charges over a traffic accident.
Xinhua did not give details of the cases involving the other three officials.
