A community official in Chongqing in the western China is under investigation for obtaining his official post while he was still on a bail for illegal land transaction.
Zhang Bin, Party secretary of a rural community in Chongqing's Yunyang County, conspired with Li Sijun, head of a neighborhood committee in Linxiang City, Hunan Province, to sell 2.8 hectares of land in Li's neighborhood in 2007 without legal procedures, Linxiang police said.
One of Li's colleagues revealed that Zhang bought the land with a few investors and sold it for 1.68 million yuan (US$270,000), the Time Weekly reported yesterday.
Zhang was caught in January 2011 and was released later on bail. However, he found a chance to change his status by taking in part in a civil servant examination in August and became a Yanping Town government official in Yunyang early last year, the paper said.
Under relevant rules, sacked officials are disqualified to take civil servant exams. It raises questions why his crime record was not checked by the personnel department and he even got the highest score in the exam, the report said.
Anonymous sources contributed Zhang's success to his uncle Zhang Zhimin, who was a high-ranking official in Yunyang between 2000 and 2010. They said it was Zhang Zhimin who bailed Zhang Bin out of jail.
