BEIJING - The Commission for Political and Legal Affairs of the Communist Party of China Central Committee has publicized 10 typical cases of disciplinary or legal violations by police officers, judges and prosecutors.
The 10 cases include a policeman in the eastern province of Shandong who drove a police vehicle after drinking alcohol and was found by plainclothes officers. The man was dismissed from the police force and his superiors were punished.
Another case took place in the central province of Hubei, where a presiding judge of a criminal court in the provincial higher people's court had an affair and maintained improper sexual relations with a female lawyer as well as received bribes from subordinate courts. He was expelled from the Party and public office.
Liu Yong, an official with the Supreme People's Court, was suspected of taking bribes of over 2 million yuan ($330,000) in exchange for intervening with trials. Liu was transferred to judicial organs and related departments have decided to expel him from public office.
The commission said in a statement that all staff of the political and legal system must fully implement all policies issued by the central authority in frugality and anti-corruption work and must take a zero tolerance attitude toward disciplinary and legal violations.
The commission said it will continue to publicize some typical cases this year and welcomes supervision by the public.
The move came after Meng Jianzhu, head of the commission and a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, said last month that the political and legal system must clean up corruption in the system "with the most resolute will and the most determined action."
