What’s new: A former vice-chairman of Hunan province’s top legislature has been expelled from the Communist Party of China and removed from public office for violations including falsifying data and associating with “political swindlers,” authorities said.
Peng Guofu, who fell under a graft probe in January, was also found to have violated the party’s frugality code and accepted money for helping others get promotions and project contracts, according to a Sunday statement from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.
