BEIJING (Reuters) - China has expelled a former party boss of northwestern Gansu province from the Communist Party, the country's anti-graft agency said on Friday, after an investigation showed he received bribes and was involved in "superstitious activities".
In a statement on its website, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) said Wang Sanyun, who was appointed as Gansu's party secretary in late 2011, had been "passive" in implementing the party's key policies, "seriously derelict" in his duties and accepted bribes and gifts in exchange for offering promotions.
