Lu Wenjun, the former deputy general manager of China First Heavy Industries, has been expelled from the Communist Party of China (CPC) and dismissed from public office following a thorough investigation into his serious disciplinary and legal violations. The CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the National Supervisory Commission disclosed this decision on Monday, highlighting the gravity of his misconduct. The investigation revealed that Lu had breached the Party’s political, organizational, and integrity disciplines, engaged in duty-related offenses, and was implicated in bribery. He was found to have accepted banquets that could have influenced his official duties, failed to report personal matters truthfully, and manipulated official appointments for personal gain. Additionally, Lu illegally accepted gifts and money, participated in power-for-money transactions, and used his position to secure benefits in business contracting, commission payments, and job adjustments, amassing significant illicit wealth. Despite the CPC’s intensified anti-corruption efforts post the 18th CPC National Congress, Lu continued his misconduct, leading to severe consequences. His expulsion from the Party and dismissal from office were accompanied by the confiscation of his illegal gains, with his criminal offenses referred to the procuratorial authorities for prosecution. China First Heavy Industries, established in 1954, is a pivotal state-owned enterprise in the heavy machinery sector, underscoring the importance of maintaining integrity in such key institutions.
