OFFICIALS said they were cautious about communicating through mobile phones in Xiaxian County in Shanxi Province as they knew the county mayor was all ears to complaints -- by tapping the phones and ordering police to put troublemakers into jail.
Wu Dongqiang, the Xiaxian Education Bureau chief, was detained after he sent two short messages to other officials, accusing the county mayor, Li Jinxue, of taking bribes worth 200,000 yuan (US$30,113) and abusing his power to build a villa for his father on October 25, Xinhua reported today.
Wu got the response three days later -- he was detained by police for libel. Wu's bankbook, ID card and some cash were confiscated after his house was searched.
When authorities in Yuncheng City, which governs Xiaxian County, learned about Wu's detention, they ordered his immediate release and an investigation into the case.
