Top Xinjiang official in graft probe

The Communist Party of China said yesterday it had begun a probe into a deputy chief prosecutor in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region for suspected “serious discipline” issues, the usual euphemism for corruption.

A brief statement by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection gave no details of the investigation into Shi Shaolin.

It was not possible to reach him for comment.

Shi took up his current job in July 2013, and had previously served as a senior regional prisons official and had worked in the old Silk Road city of Kashgar, according to his resume.

President Xi Jinping has embarked on an ambitious campaign to crack down on deep-rooted graft.
