Three local officials are being investigated for separate cases of alleged embezzlement or accepting bribes, the Supreme People's Procuratorate said on Thursday.
The three are Zhang Guoqiu, a deputy department-level inspector in the city of Tongliao in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region; Li Hongbo, director of the water affairs bureau in the southern island province of Hainan; and Yang Haoqiang, former vice director of Hainan's arts and sports bureau.
