3 Fujian officials removed from CPC

Three more officials in Fujian province have been disciplined as part of China's wide-ranging anti-corruption campaign targeting both "tigers and flies" - high-ranking and low-level officials.

Shi Xiaoyu, former deputy mayor of Fuzhou, the capital of the province, has been expelled from the Communist Party of China, the local anti-graft authority announced on Sunday. Shu Zhan, Party chief of the broadcasting group in the area, and Lin Guodong, deputy head of the cross-Straits job market platform, have both been held for investigation.

The announcement came one day after China snared its biggest "tiger" since its reform and opening-up - Zhou Yongkang, a member of the Communist Party's Politburo Standing Committee.
