Luo Yulin, a former senior member of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) state-owned assets watchdog, is under probe, according to an official notice published on May 17.
Luo was a deputy ministerial-level official of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (or “State-owned Assets Commission”), and is suspected of “serious violations of discipline and law.” The CCP’s central disciplinary committee made the announcement in a single sentence on its website on Wednesday. No further details were given.
Public records show that the nearly 65-year-old Luo had a long tenure in China’s northwestern Qinghai Province, serving as an executive deputy governor of the province, a member of the standing committee of the provincial CCP’s committee, and the director of the provincial state-owned assets commission, among other positions held since 1976….
