Retired Zhejiang commander probed

A retired senior military official in Zhejiang province has been placed under investigation, news magazine Caixin reported on Tuesday.

Fu Yi, 62, former commander of the Zhejiang Military Area Command, was taken away by military authorities for investigation earlier this year, the report said.

It was not known whether Fu's case is related to the one involving Guo Zhenggang, deputy political commissar of the Zhejiang command and the son of a retired former vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission, the country's top military body, the report said.
