Poverty relief fund abusers targeted

China has announced a five-year campaign to crack down on corruption by officials engaged in poverty relief work. In the past three years, prosecutors have investigated 2,295 officials who manage poverty alleviation - 579 in 2013, 783 in 2014, and 933 in 2015, according to the Supreme People's Procuratorate on Tuesday. The sharp rise in instances of corruption within the poverty alleviation sector is due to a spike in the number of poverty relief projects and funds involved, as well as lax supervision, according to an unidentified official with the anti-corruption bureau under the SPP.
