What’s new: Shang Liguang, the deputy party chief of North China’s Shanxi province, is being investigated for corruption by the country’s top anti-graft watchdog, the latest in a string of senior local government officials probed in the country’s sweeping graft crackdown.
Shang, who is also a delegate to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, is suspected of “serious violations of discipline and law” — a common euphemism for corruption, according to a Tuesday statement from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.
