'House Sister' with property empire arrested over fake IDs

AUTHORITIES have approved the arrest of a woman who allegedly used fake IDs to acquire multiple properties, authorities said yesterday.

On Friday, the Shenmu County People's Procuratorate in northwestern Shaanxi Province formally approved the arrest of Gong Aiai, former deputy head of the Shenmu County Rural Commercial Bank, in Yulin City.

It was confirmed that Gong had four hukou IDs - a household registration record unique to each Chinese citizen.

The three fake ones, two registered in Shaanxi Province and the other in Beijing, have been revoked.

In January, online whistleblowers revealed that Gong, who became known as "House Sister" among the public, had more than 20 properties worth 1 billion yuan (US$159.4 million) in Beijing under the names Gong Aiai and Gong Xianxia.

Beijing police confirmed Gong owned 41 properties in the city, totalling 9,666.6 square meters.

She was later found to have acquired properties in other areas, including Shenmu.

Investigations found that Gong was a contracted bank employee, but not a civil servant.

She tendered her resignation as deputy head of the bank in June 2012. The board approved her resignation in January.

Investigations continue.
