China probes two top energy officials for bribery
2014-05-22
BEIJING (ROOTERS) - Prosecutors are investigating two top officials from China's National Energy Administration on suspicion of taking bribes, state media said on Wednesday, the latest senior administrators to face questioning in a sweeping anti-corruption drive.

The two officials are Mr Hao Weiping, director of the administration's nuclear power department, and Mr Wei Pengyuan, deputy director of the coal department, the official Xinhua news agency said.

Last month, Caixin magazine reported that Mr Hao and his wife were detained as she prepared to abscond leave the country from Beijing airport.
You have the right, wait this is China, just book em Danno.
Since Mr Xi Jinping assumed the presidency in March last year, China has launched a series of probes into the energy sector as part of a broader campaign to clamp down on official graft in a government widely seen as rife with corruption.
What about unofficial graft?

#2  The unofficial graft is buying real estate in SoCal, Sydney, and Singapore.

Then perhaps more top party figures will pick the abscond with the loot option. The CIA would like to talk with you about your long term security arrangements.
