Zero tolerance to judicial corruption: top procurator

Xinhua, February 21, 2014

• China's procurator-general Cao Jianming on Thursday pledged to fight against corruption within the procuratorial system.

  There must be zero tolerance to judicial corruption and any procurators violating disciplines must be punished, said Cao, procurator-general of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, while attending a meeting on anti-graft work within the procuratorial system.

  Supervision should be strengthened to ensure procuratorial power is performed according to the law and regulations, Cao said.

  In January, he called on procuratorial organs to provide specific measures for the implementation of a five-year (2013-2017) plan on building a system to punish and prevent corruption, issued by the Communist Party of China Central Committee in December.
