Officials buy invitation letters for overseas tours
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2008-11-28 18:17 An official with the publicity department of the CPC Wenzhou committee said he knew nothing about the trip. Liu did not give a timeline for when Xinhua could expect results from the investigation. This is not the first exposed scandal involving government officials taking suspicions overseas travels. In last August, the CPC demoted a senior law enforcement officer who led a ten-strong delegation to Finland on a forged official invitation only to be refused entry. Xu Wenai has been removed from his post as vice procurator-general of east China's Anhui province for wasting public money on the abortive journey, which resulted in the Chinese official being deported the day after their arrival in Finland. The scandal emerged after the delegation had to return to China on November 21 last year after they were refused entry to Finland for providing a fake Finish government invitation on November 20, according to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) of the CPC. The CCDI investigation found the delegation also changed their approved route of travel and added the number of destination countries. |
