China jails corrupt police off
BEIJING - China has jailed a provincial deputy chief of police for life for taking bribes, a newspaper said today, amid an intensified crackdown on corruption.
A court in the eastern coastal province of Zhejiang jailed Xu Xiaogang, former deputy head of public security in neighbouring Jiangxi province, on Monday and seized all his personal property, the Beijing News said.
Xu, 56, had accepted more than 4 million yuan ($714,000) in bribes between 1997 and 2005, it said. "In the cases in which he was in charge, Xu Xiaogang used his position to obtain advantages for criminal suspects and some other people, so that he could make a profit," the newspaper said, citing the court.
Xu was also found guilty of illegal possession of six guns.
China has launched a series of campaigns to eliminate official corruption which the ruling Communist Party has warned could threaten its grip on power if not contained.
In February, China jailed a former police officer and vice mayor of a city in eastern province of Anhui for 10 years for taking bribes.
