Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) and the National Commission of Supervision decided to expel three senior officials from the CPC over serious violations of discipline and laws, according to three separate statements released by the CCDI and the National Commission of Supervision on Monday.
With the approval of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, the CCDI and the National Commission of Supervision launched a case review and investigation into serious disciplinary and legal violations committed by Li Gang, former head of the discipline inspection and supervision team sent to the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee by the CPC CCDI and the National Commission of Supervision.
According to the investigation, Li lost his ideals and convictions, betrayed the Party leadership’s eight-point decision on improving work conduct, engaged in political opportunism, associated with political frauds, and resisted organizational scrutiny. He betrayed the Central Party leadership’s eight-point decision on improving work conduct by accepting banquets that could compromise his impartiality in performing official duties. He disregarded organizational principles by failing to report personal matters as required, and sought benefits for others in personnel selection and appointments. He crossed the line of integrity by engaging in profit-making activities in violation of regulations. Driven by greed, he abused public power for personal gain, accepted large sums of money, and exploited his position to seek benefits for others in business operations, project contracting, and personnel adjustments, illegally receiving huge amounts of property.
Li seriously violated the Party’s political, organizational, integrity, and life disciplines. His actions constituted serious misconduct in office and are suspected of bribery crimes. Despite the Party’s repeated warnings after the 18th CPC National Congress, he showed no restraint or remorse. The nature of his violations is severe and the impact is egregious, and he must be dealt with seriously, said the statement.
In line with Party regulations and the law, a decision has been made to expel Li from the Party, impose dismissal from public office by the National Supervisory Commission, revoke his qualification as a delegate to the 20th CPC National Congress, confiscate his illicit gains, and transfer his suspected criminal case to the procuratorial authorities for legal review and prosecution, along with all related assets.
Liu Mancang, former vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the People’s Congress of Central China’s Henan Province, has been expelled from the CPC for serious violations of discipline and law, China’s top anti-graft body said on Monday.
The decision was made following an investigation by the CPC CCDI and the National Commission of Supervision. With the approval of the CPC Central Committee, a case was filed and a review and investigation were conducted into Liu, who also served as the former deputy secretary of the leading Party members group of the standing committee of Henan Province.
According to the investigation, Liu lost his ideals and convictions, betrayed the Central Party leadership’s eight-point decision on improving work conduct, and engaged in superstitious activities. He violated the spirit of the Central Party’s Eight-Point Regulation by accepting banquets in violation of rules. He breached organizational principles by failing to report personal matters as required and sought benefits for others in personnel selection and appointments, accepting money and gifts in return. He abandoned the bottom line of integrity by illegally accepting gifts, cash, and prepaid cards, and used his authority to seek benefits for his relatives’ business activities. Driven by greed and moral decay, he continued to wield public power for personal gain even after retirement, leveraging his position to seek benefits for others in business operations, land development, and real estate projects, and illegally accepted large amounts of property.
Liu seriously violated the Party’s political, organizational, and integrity disciplines, said the statement. His actions constituted serious misconduct in office and he is suspected of crimes including bribery and accepting bribes by exploiting his influence. Despite repeated warnings after the 18th CPC National Congress, he failed to restrain himself or stop his misconduct. The nature of his violations is severe, the impact is egregious, and he must be dealt with seriously.

Chen Xiaobo, former anti-graft official in South China’s Hainan Province, was placed under review and investigation for serious violations of discipline and law by the CCDI and the National Commission of Supervision, with the approval of the CPC Central Committee.
Investigation found that Chen, deputy head of Hainan’s discipline inspection commission and provincial commission of supervision, lost his ideals and convictions, betrayed the Central Party leadership’s eight-point decision on improving work conduct, resisted organizational scrutiny, and engaged in superstitious activities. He disregarded the spirit of the Party’s Eight-Point Regulation by accepting banquets that could compromise the impartial performance of his duties. He violated organizational principles by failing to report personal matters as required, did not tell the truth during organizational inquiries, and sought benefits for others in personnel selection and appointments in exchange for money and gifts.
He abandoned the bottom line of integrity by illegally accepting monetary gifts and using his power or influence to seek benefits for relatives and friends in business activities. He also sought high returns through private lending. Chen interfered in disciplinary and law enforcement processes in violation of regulations and leaked confidential work-related information. Driven by greed, he distorted public power into a tool for personal gain, engaged in power-for-money deals, and used his position to benefit others in land acquisitions, project contracting, and more, illegally accepting large amounts of property, as the statement unveiled.
Chen seriously violated the Party’s political, organizational, integrity, work, and lifestyle disciplines. His actions constituted serious misconduct in office and he is suspected of bribery crimes.
