Ex-top official in court on graft charges
Print Edition
BAI Enpei, a former senior official with the top legislature, appeared in court yesterday on two corruption charges.
In a statement, Bai (pictured right) is said to have accepted the charges and shown repentance.
The former deputy head of the Environment and Resources Protection Committee of the National People’s Congress was accused of taking advantage of his various posts and other perks associated with his posts from 2000 to 2013 to seek benefits — in project construction, real estate development, mining rights and personal promotions — for 17 companies and individuals.
In exchange, he, or through his wife, accepted bribes worth over 246 million yuan (US$37.4 million).
Prosecutors also alleged that the assets and expenditure of the Bai family significantly exceeded their legal income and Bai was unable to specify the sources of his assets, which constituted another suspected criminal violation.
The People’s Procuratorate of Anyang City in central China’s Henan Province filed the charges with Anyang Intermediate People’s Court.
The court will announce its ruling at a later date.
