Anti-graft teams investigate 'naked officials' in Fujian

There are lots of "naked officials" - public servants whose spouses and children have emigrated overseas - in East China's Fujian province, said inspectors dispatched by the country's top anti-graft agency.

The provincial government must beef up anti-graft measures to address the high number of naked officials, according to a statement released on Monday through the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China.

The problems were revealed by the inspection team dispatched by the CCDI in late March. The commission sent 14 teams to 11 provincial governments, one State-owned enterprise, one university and a central ministry to collect whistleblowing information on officials' misbehaviors.
