A FORMER provincial vice governor is being investigated by China's anti-corruption watchdog, the latest senior official to come under scrutiny in the leadership's campaign against graft.
Ni Fake is being investigated for "suspected serious disciplinary offenses," Xinhua news agency said yesterday. No further details were given, but such announcements typically indicate that the Party official has been taken into custody.
"Corruption is a malignant tumor on society, if the graft problem is allowed to become ever more critical, it will certainly lead to the death of the Party and of the nation," the China Discipline and Inspection Daily newspaper said in a commentary yesterday hailing President Xi Jinping's resolve to fight graft.
According to his official resume, Ni became vice governor of Anhui Province in 2008, in charge of land, housing, environmental protection and other areas. Such sectors are often plagued by corruption, with officials wielding large influence over land sales, housing developments and factory licenses.
Anhui has made headlines in recent years because of problems in such areas. During a nationwide drive to build subsidized apartments, numerous complaints were filed by residents over units that had huge holes in walls and floors.
In 2011, a battery factory in Anhui sickened more than 200 children with lead poisoning.
Ni is the latest in a number of high-level officials investigated since Xi came to power.
Two weeks ago, authorities said an investigation had been launched into Liu Tienan, an economic planning official accused by a prominent journalist of corruption.
In December, a deputy Party secretary in Sichuan Province was removed from his post following reports that he was suspected in influence-peddling and questionable real estate deals.
Reports of the investigation into Ni come amid the ongoing crackdown on corruption, which includes the deployment of 10 inspection teams to various provinces and organizations.
The teams which will scrutinize high-level officials have been sent to check on five provinces and five government or state-linked organizations, including the Ministry of Water Resources, the China Grain Reserves Corp, and the Export-Import Bank of China.
