BEIJING, May 7 (Xinhua) — Gou Zhongwen, a former member of the Bureau of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), has been charged with corruption and abuse of office, the Supreme People’s Procuratorate said Wednesday.
The indictment of the prosecutor’s office states that Gou Zhongwen, while holding the posts of vice-mayor of Beijing, secretary of the party group and head of the General Administration of State for Physical Culture and Sports, abused his official position for the benefit of third parties, for which he received financial and material assets on an especially large scale. In addition, his actions caused enormous damage to state property, as well as the interests of the country and the people.
The criminal case against him was filed by the Yancheng City People’s Procuratorate in Jiangsu Province, and the case will be tried by the Intermediate People’s Court in the same city. -0-
