|
The South China Morning Post (March 12) quoted a CDIC announcement of March 12 stating
that 66-year old Liu Yanping, a former anti-corruption chief of China’s Ministry of State
Security is for “suspected violation of discipline and law”. Liu Yanping is the 12th highranking official to fall from grace this year and first since the annual national legislative
meeting concluded on Friday. He graduated from the China University of Political Science and
Law and had a long career in the police department in Beijing before being appointed as Vice
Minister of Public Security in 2013. Two years later, he became the head of discipline
inspection at the Ministry of State Security. Liu Yanping was also involved in the effort to
repatriate Guo Wengui back to China from the US.
