More than 800 inmates, including many corrupt senior officials who had their sentences commuted illegally, were returned to prison last year, Xinhua News Agency reported on Tuesday.
The 800 inmates sent back to prison include Hu Jianxue, former Party chief of Tai'an city, Shandong province; Shi Baochun, former director of the land development bureau in Yangsuo county, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region; Ding Zhenwu, former director of the Public Affairs Bureau in Guangzhou, Guangdong province; and Jiang Yanping, former duty manager of the Hunan Provincial Construction Engineering Group, according to the Supreme People's Prosecutorate.
Most of those returned to prison had received illegal commutation of sentences, had been released on parole or were serving their sentences outside prison due to illness, the SPP said.
