A TOTAL of 158 people, including a bureau director in east China’s Jiangxi Province, have been punished or are being investigated for corruption in water conservancy projects.
Seventeen have been held criminally liable and more than 76 million yuan (US$12.4 million) in illegal money seized, China National Radio’s website reported.
Pei Muchun, director of Jiujiang City’s water conservation bureau, has been sentenced to 12 and half years in prison for bribery and corruption, the website said.
Hu Jiang, general manager of the city’s government-owned Water Conservancy Construction Co, was sentenced to 10 and half years and fined 100,000 yuan for taking bribes.
Also guilty of bribery charges, Lu Haibing, chief of Jiujiang’s watercourse management bureau, and Wan Jun, director of the city’s water saving office, were sentenced to four and 10 years in prison respectively, while Ke Shanman, deputy chief of the city’s supervision office, was sentenced to five years.
CNR said professional bidding “agents” had been obtaining water project contracts in Jiujiang by colluding with each other or bribing officials. When some companies were not qualified to bid for a project, agents would obtain them in the name of a qualified company and sell them on after the bidding.
