A FORMER senior executive at a Chinese state-owned military giant has been expelled from the Communist Party of China for taking bribes and other “massive” corruption, the top anti-corruption watchdog said yesterday.
The move is the latest in a series of expulsions and detentions, underscoring a crackdown by China’s leadership on corruption.
An investigation found Zhang Youren, a former chairman of Anhui Military Industry Group, used his position to obtain favours for others and took bribes, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection said in a statement.
He was also engaged in corruption with public goods “on a massive scale,” it added.
Zhang’s pension has been revoked, the notice added, and his case had been sent to judicial authorities for prosecution.
Huang Xiaohu, the former Party secretary and chairman of the company, Zhang’s successor, was expelled from the Party in April, also on graft charges.
Zhang appeared in court in Anhui Province’s Fuyang City last month on trial for graft. A verdict was not announced.
The commission also announced yesterday that Yang Baohua, a former senior political adviser of central China’s Hunan Province, was stripped of Party membership for serious discipline and law violations.
It said Yang was found to have taken advantage of his position to seek interests for others, taken huge bribes and committed adultery.
Yang is under investigation by the Supreme People’s Procuratorate for alleged bribery-taking, the SPP said yesterday in a statement.
The SPP has taken coercive measures against him, according to the statement.
President Xi Jinping’s anti-corruption campaign has ensnared both lowly “flies” as well as high-flying “tigers,” including Jiang Jiemin, the former top regulator of state-owned enterprises for just five months until last September.
Xu Caihou, the retired vice chairman of the powerful Central Military Commission, was expelled from the Party last month and will be court-martialled on corruption charges.
In a separate statement, China banned teachers from receiving gifts from students and parents to curb the buying of favors, often in exchange for giving students special treatment.
