Expulsion for ex-justice minister
A FORMER justice minister has been expelled from the Party following an investigation by the anti-corruption watchdog.
Wu Aiying, 65, was justice minister from 2005 until February this year, according to her official resume, and one of only a handful of senior female officials in China.
In a statement released following a four-day meeting of the Party’s Central Committee, Wu’s name was listed as one of a number of officials to have been expelled from the Party for graft.
The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection found that Wu had “serious discipline problems,” the communique said, using a euphemism for corruption, but gave no other details.
Wu had spent most her career working in the eastern province of Shandong, where she rose to become a deputy provincial Party chief, before moving to Beijing in late 2003 to work at the Ministry of Justice.
