Tian Yubao (born 24 December 1951) is a Chinese politician of Hui ethnicity. He was investigated by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in November 2014. Previously he served as the Chairman of Taiyuan Municipal People's Congress.[1]

Life

[edit]

Tian was born and raised in Taiyuan, Shanxi, in an ethnic Hui family. It is not clear if he has a university degree.[citation needed]

In 1995 he became the Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary of Nanjiao District, a position he held until May 1997, when he was appointed the party chief of Xiaodian District. When he presided over party work in Xiaodian, Liu Suiji was district governor; when he left Xiaodian, Liu succeeded him as party chief there.[citation needed]

In 2002 he was transferred to a position in Taiyuan, capital of Shanxi province, and appointed the Vice-Chairman of Taiyuan Municipal People's Congress (futingji), where he was put in charge of legal work and led party-related work.[citation needed]

Tian Yubao retired in May 2012, and disappeared from public life.[citation needed]

Downfall

[edit]

On November 3, 2014, it was announced that Tian would be investigated by the Shanxi Commission for Discipline Inspection for "serious violations of laws and regulations".[2] He was detained by on December 11. After a quick investigation, Tian was expelled from the Chinese Communist Party on December 26. He was accused of taking large bribes and also purchasing stock in a manner that violated regulations. His retirement benefits were also rescinded by the state, and his case was moved to judicial authorities for prosecution.[2]

On June 16, 2016, he was sentenced to 13 years and fined 500,000 yuan for taking bribes and holding a huge amount of property without legal sources. All his illegal gains will be confiscated and handed over to the State.[citation needed]
