Official suspended over allegations of misconduct
Print Edition
THE head of a district public security bureau in Jiangsu Province has been suspended on suspicion of using a public vehicle for his private purposes.
The Huai’an disciplinary commission said yesterday that Cao Xinglong, head of the Huai’an Qingpu District Public Security Bureau, was suspended pending a full investigation.
The announcement came after a Qingpu police officer, Gao Jianchao, on Tuesday uploaded 10 images to the Internet of Cao, 50, allegedly using a car owned by bureau, news website thepaper.cn reported.
Gao claimed that all of the images were taken last year.
The officer also claimed that Cao in 2010 took 1.7 million yuan (US$277,000) in bribes from people implicated in an illegal gambling investigation.
The suspects had been in detention, but were released by Cao after bribing him, Gao said. He added that Cao kept the money, along with other graft payments, in a Bank of Jiangsu account held in the name of “Qingpu public security team.”
Gao provided no evidence to support his allegations, but admitted to not liking Cao.
Cao was made chief of the Qingpu bureau in 2010, while Gao worked there in 2010 and 2011.
Gao said he put the images online after hearing nothing from local and national bodies to which he had reported Cao’s alleged crimes.
He said he reported Cao to the central government’s disciplinary commission in June, and to the Huai’an city discipline commission a month later.
When no response was forthcoming, he decided to make the images public, the report said.
The move was in line with the government’s call for whistleblowers, he said, adding that he posted his name and ID card details as proof of authenticity.
Officials from the Huai’an bureau have yet to comment on the allegations, the website said.
Despite Gao’s apparent sincerity, the report said the attack on Cao might be linked to a case in 2012 in which he broke a crime group involved in 1.5 billion yuan pyramid selling.
Cao received high praise for his achievements, but has since been the target of numerous revenge attacks, several of which took the form of fabricated tip-offs about his bad behavior.
