Liu Zhihua, vice mayor of Beijing, was removed from his post for corruption 
and dissoluteness on Sunday. 
 The 28th session of the Standing Committee of the Beijing Municipal People's 
Congress decided on Sunday to dismiss Liu, as the committee has verified the 
facts of his wrongdoings, which are found to be quite serious and have baneful 
social influence. 
 Considering Liu has violated the discipline of the Communist Party of China 
(CPC) and the government, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of 
the CPC and the Ministry of Supervision have put Liu's case on file for 
investigation and prosecution.
