Former police official under investigation

PROSECUTORS are investigating a former senior security official in northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region over allegations of abuse of power and corruption, the Supreme People’s Procuratorate said yesterday.

Li Yanming was Party chief at the Xinjiang Police College, which trains public security officials, and a member of the Party committee of Xinjiang’s Public Security Bureau until the Party launched an investigation in May.

The Supreme People’s Procuratorate said Li had been put under “compulsory measures” while it prepares its case.

Such measures can include surveillance, detention and arrest but prosecutors did not specify the measures taken in Li’s case.

Li is suspected of abusing his position and taking bribes, the procuratorate said, but no other details were revealed.

In October, Adil Nurmemet, mayor of Hotan a city in Xinjiang’s south Uygur autonomous region, was put under investigation for suspected serious discipline violations.

The 46-year-old began serving as the city’s mayor and deputy Party chief in January 2009.
