What’s new: Zheng Xuelin, a retired senior official of China’s top court, is being investigated by the Communist Party’s top graft buster as part of an ongoing campaign to stamp out corruption in the country’s judicial system.
Zheng, former head of a division of the Supreme People’s Court (SPC) that hears civil cases, is suspected of “serious violations of discipline and law,” a common euphemism for corruption, according to a one-line statement published Thursday by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.
