Xinhua, September 19, 2016 Adjust font size:

Four officials from Guizhou Province and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region are being investigated on suspicion of work-related crimes, China's Supreme People's Procuratorate (SPP) said Monday.

Tan Dinghua, former deputy general manager of Chinese liquor producer Kweichow Moutai, and Wa Qingrong, Communist Party of China (CPC) official of Guizhou provincial agricultural committee, are suspected of taking bribes, the SPP said.

He Yonglin, CPC secretary of Bayannur in Inner Mongolia, and Wang Xuefeng, Party secretary of Ulanqab, also in Inner Mongolia, are being investigated for duty crimes.

The four have been placed under "coercive measures," including summons by force, bail, residential surveillance, detention and arrest.

The investigations continue. Endi
