Strongly demand investigation.

The Yushan Town Discipline Inspection Commission conducted investigations in two ways: all the way from the township poverty alleviation office to obtain information on the poverty alleviation project of Shihe Houzhuang Village, and to check the use of special poverty alleviation funds in the village;

At the site of the peach tree planting project in Houzhuang Village, Shihe, the investigation team found that the peach tree lacked later management and the survival rate of seedlings was very low. At the same time, the comrades who consulted the data found that in the 2014 Peach Tree Planting Poverty Alleviation Project in Houzhuang Village of Shihe, expenditures such as the construction of Dongxiao Square in the village and the construction of tang dams occurred. Provisions. The investigation team conducted a comprehensive review of the use of the project funds and found that a total of more than 20,000 yuan of special funds were used for expenditures other than the implementation plan of the poverty alleviation project.

The investigation team further checked the accounts and found that the village’s 2016 chicken farm poverty alleviation project had two totals of 48615 yuan in poverty alleviation funds, which were used to pay for the construction of business platforms and certification of organic agricultural products for Huiguo professional cooperatives. No one else is Zhang Qinzhu himself.

"Why was the 2016 poverty alleviation project funds used to pay your cooperatives?" In the face of the investigation, Zhang Qinzhu poured the poverty alleviation project funds into the village collective expenditures and the cooperative's profit-making activities.

After investigation, when implementing the poverty alleviation project in Shihe Houzhuang Village in 2014 and 2016, Zhang Qinzhu changed the purpose of the special fund for poverty alleviation without authorization, and repeatedly embezzled a total of 130876.4 yuan for the collective construction of production roads and squares in the village. During the project, a total of 48,615 yuan of poverty alleviation funds were misappropriated for profit-making activities. Because Zhang Qinzhu misappropriated the special funds for poverty alleviation projects, the village poverty alleviation projects had little revenue, which seriously eroded the poor people's sense of gain.

In June 2020, Zhang Qinzhu was expelled from the party and his proceeds of violation of discipline were collected. In July 2020, the Linshu County Commission for Discipline Inspection of Linyi City, Shandong Province notified Zhang Qinzhu about the misappropriation of special funds for poverty alleviation.

Today, Ji Ji said: Village cadres reached "black hands" and misappropriated special funds for poverty alleviation

Article 27 of the "Disciplinary Measures of the Communist Party of China" stipulates: "Party organizations have found that party members have corruption, bribery, abuse of power, negligence of duty, power rent-seeking, transfer of interests, favoritism, and waste of state assets and other suspected violations of the law during disciplinary review. Those who commit criminal acts shall be dismissed from their positions in the party, stay in the party for inspection or be expelled from the party."

Article 384 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that state staff embezzle public funds for personal use for illegal activities, or embezzle large amounts of public funds for profit-making activities, or embezzle public funds by taking advantage of their positions. If the amount is large and has not been repaid for more than three months, the crime of misappropriation of public funds shall be punishable by fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years or detention; if the circumstances are serious, it shall be imprisoned for more than five years.

As a member of the Communist Party of China and a rural cadre, Zhang Qinzhu's illegal misappropriation of poverty alleviation funds for personal use and for-profit activities has violated the relevant provisions of Article 384 of the Criminal Law on the crime of misappropriation of public funds, although the amount has not been reached A larger standard does not constitute a crime of misappropriation of public funds, but it still requires accountability for party discipline.

Poverty alleviation funds are the "life-saving money", "life-saving money" of the poor and the "booster" for poverty reduction and poverty alleviation. Supervision must be strengthened to achieve poverty alleviation through sunlight and poverty alleviation. Rural party cadres must strengthen their awareness of discipline and will never reach out to the “cheese” of poverty alleviation. The disciplinary inspection and supervision organs should increase the punishment of corruption in the field of poverty alleviation, find one, and seriously investigate and deal with accountability.
