China News Service, Beijing, March 31 (Reporter Zhang Su) The State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has recently filed a case for review and investigation on Fu Zhenghua, a member of the 19th Central Committee and former deputy director of the Social and Legal Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

On March 31, it was officially announced that Fu Zhenghua had been expelled from the party and public office for serious violations of discipline and law.

  "Completely abandoning ideals and beliefs, never truly loyal to the party and the people, and completely losing the principles of party spirit" "extremely inflated political ambitions, extremely despicable political conduct, speculative exploits, profit blinding, unscrupulous to achieve personal political goals"... Towards the age of 68 At the same time, Fu Zhenghua received a notice of punishment with extremely severe words.

  Fu Zhenghua was born in March 1955 in Luan County, Hebei Province.

He started working in December 1970 and joined the Communist Party of China in September 1973.

He served as Secretary and Director of the Party Committee of the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Executive Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Public Security, Minister of Justice and Deputy Secretary of the Party Leadership Group.

  Fu Zhenghua, who has been working in the field of politics and law for a long time, participated in the investigation and detection of major cases such as the "1996 Cash Transporter Robbery", "1997 Baibaoshan Case", "Huang Guangyu Case" and "Ma Jiajue Case".

In fact, he "has no reverence for discipline and law, law enforcement violates the law, bends the law for personal gain, arbitrarily acts arbitrarily, and causes serious and bad political consequences."

  Fu Zhenghua was accused of "using and carrying guns in violation of regulations for a long time, causing serious safety hazards", which is quite rare.

"Never truly loyal to the party and the people" is also not common in disciplinary notices.

  Previously, Wang Like, former member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and former secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, was "double-opened", and was officially criticized for "never really established ideals and beliefs, and was never loyal and honest to the party"; Sun Lijun, former member of the party committee and deputy minister of the Ministry of Public Security, was "double-opened". ”, and the official denounced it as “never really established ideals and beliefs”.

  The TV feature film "Zero Tolerance" aired in January this year mentioned that "the investigation into the case of Sun Lijun's political gang is still ongoing, and the central government has decided to file a case for review and investigation on former Minister of Justice Fu Zhenghua and others."

This time, it was found that Fu Zhenghua "participated in Sun Lijun's political gang, formed factions, formed parties for personal gain", and "falsified and deceived the central government on major issues, jeopardizing the centralization and unity of the party."

  At present, the prosecution has prosecuted Sun Lijun for allegedly taking bribes, manipulating the securities market, and illegally possessing firearms.

Wang Like, who once gave more than 90 million yuan to Sun Lijun in the name of "Little Seafood", also stood in the dock.

  Fu Zhenghua was also accused of arguing about the major policies of the CPC Central Committee, having been friends with many "political liars" for a long time, and being accused of "long-term superstitious activities".

Many "fallen" officials have had similar problems.

For example, Qin Guangrong, the former secretary of the Yunnan Provincial Party Committee, arranged for "feng shui masters" to set up a formation in Changchong Mountain in order to clear the "obstacles" of the career development; Capital running officials and buying officials are deceived.

  An article published on the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission stated that whether it is "don't ask the common people to ask the masters" or being manipulated by political liars, the root cause is their desire for power.

  Involving family members

  "The long-term illegal occupation of multiple houses, office space and multiple buses for personal and family enjoyment, and the long-term arrangement of multiple public officials and active duty personnel to provide services for individuals and their families", Fu Zhenghua's serious privilege thinking is evident.

  According to the notice on party discipline and government sanctions issued by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and State Supervision Commission website, there are not a few cases of disciplinary violations involving family members and relatives.

  For example, from October 2015 to February 2018, Pu Bo, former member of the party group of the Guizhou provincial government and vice-governor, asked private business owners to make capital contributions five times to arrange for him and his relatives to travel to Hong Kong, Shanghai and Sanya.

Another example is that during the National Day in 2017, Hu Huaibang, the former secretary of the Party Committee and chairman of the China Development Bank, and his family traveled to Shanghai, and the cost of board and lodging was paid by the private business owner.

  Some cadres who violated the law and discipline not only engaged in power and money transactions in front of the stage, but also condoned their families to collect money behind the scenes, and their children used their "connections" and "face" to do business for profit.

The communiqué of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has mentioned to urge the implementation of regulations on the behavior of leading cadres' spouses, children and their spouses to run businesses, and to strictly manage their family members and children.

  With the education and rectification of political and legal teams across the country, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Justice and other agencies have also issued lists of prohibited employment for relatives of police officers.

  Follow-up

  The report pointed out that Fu Zhenghua seriously violated the party's political discipline and political rules, organizational discipline, integrity discipline and life discipline. The nature is particularly bad, the circumstances are particularly serious, and should be dealt with severely.

  After studying at the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and reporting it to the Political Bureau of the Central Committee for deliberation, it was decided to give Fu Zhenghua the sanction of expulsion from the party, and the State Supervisory Commission to give him the sanction of expulsion from public office.

  The circular mentioned that "the punishment of expulsion from the party will be given, which will be ratified when the plenary meeting of the Central Committee is held."

According to the relevant provisions of the Constitution of the Communist Party of China, members and alternate members of the Party's Central Committee and local committees at all levels shall be punished by dismissal from intra-Party positions, Party probation or expulsion from the Party. The Politburo and the standing committees of local committees at all levels make decisions on handling, which will be ratified when the plenary meeting of the committees is held.”

  On October 4, 2019, it was officially announced that Liu Shiyu, former deputy secretary of the party group and director of the board of directors of the All-China Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, was sentenced to two years of probation in the party and dismissed from government affairs.

On October 31, the communiqué of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee was released, which mentioned that the plenary session "confirmed the punishment made by the Political Bureau of the Central Committee to give Comrade Liu Shiyu a two-year probation in the Party".

  Fu Zhenghua was also terminated as a representative of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and his illegal income was confiscated.

The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission transferred the suspected crime to the procuratorate for examination and prosecution according to law, and the property involved was transferred together.

  In 2021, the prosecutors prosecuted 23 former provincial and ministerial cadres; 14 former central management cadres were tried.
