More than a year after his fall, the Internet celebrity mayor was prosecuted.

On the morning of the 20th, the Supreme People's Procuratorate announced that the former mayor of Jiangmen, Deng Weigen (main hall), had been prosecuted by the prosecution.The indictment alleges that Deng Weigen has been collecting money since 1995, and the amount is particularly huge.

After hearing the news, I read his Weibo @染山潮人, and the top Weibo is still the one on September 26, 2014. At that time, Deng Weigen, who was the Secretary of the Nanhai District Committee at the time, was appointed as the acting city of Jiangmen.Long, he wrote on Weibo that everything should return to zero and integrate as soon as possible.

However, Deng Weigen, who regarded Jiangmen as his destination in life, was sacked after less than 3 years as the mayor of Jiangmen. When he was sacked, Deng Weigen was 55 years old.

Received the first payment in 1995

Deng Weigen taught at Jinan University for a long time before entering the official career.

According to public information, in September 1981, Deng Weigen entered the Department of Enterprise Management of Jinan University to study industrial economics, and then successively studied for a master's degree and a doctorate degree.In December 1988, he became a teacher in the Department of Business Administration of the school.From 1991 to 1995, he experienced multiple transformations from lecturer, associate professor, professor, assistant to the principal, and director of the industry office.

In 1995, 33-year-old Deng Weigen left school and became an assistant to the mayor of Shunde City. In August of that year, he became a member of the Standing Committee of the Shunde Municipal Committee.Become regular.

In 1995, Deng Weigen started to collect money in the procuratorate's indictment.

Zhaoqing City People's Procuratorate's indictment accuses:

From 1995 to 2017, the defendant Deng Weigen used his position as a member of the Standing Committee of the Shunde District Committee, the mayor of Gaoming District, the secretary of the Gaoming District Party Committee, the deputy mayor of Foshan City, the secretary of the Nanhai District Party Committee, the deputy secretary of the Jiangmen Municipal Party Committee, and the mayor of Jiangmen City.For the convenience of others, seek benefits for others in terms of obtaining engineering projects, changing the nature of land, etc., and illegally accept other people's property, the amount is particularly huge, and should be investigated for criminal responsibility for the crime of accepting bribes according to law.

This is very different from the Deng Weigen known by the public.

On April 28, 2017, when Deng Weigen fell from the horse, he interviewed relevant people. The relevant people said that Deng Weigen was not greedy for merit or aggressive.When he was sacked from the post of mayor of Jiangmen, many people were surprised.

The relevant person said that Deng Weigen regards Jiangmen as a destination in his life.Deng Weigen's hometown is very close to Jiangmen geographically.Deng Weigen said that he had many opportunities to advance in the officialdom, but finally chose Jiangmen, which is very close to his hometown, and wanted to do something real for Jiangmen.

Deng Weigen was still a Weibo master before he fell from the horse.

His Weibo name is @秋山涛人, and the authentication information does not use political identity, but he is a professor at the Institute of Industrial Economics of Jinan University and a Ph.D. in economics.

The latest Weibo update of this Weibo was at 5:27 a.m. the day before his fall, and the content was that Jiangmen North Station was named:

The top Weibo is a Weibo from September 26, 2014. At that time, Deng Weigen had just arrived in Jiangmen as the mayor:

The secretary and the mayor are all in one pot

What exactly Deng Weigen committed, the public can also get a glimpse of it from his double announcements and the prosecution's indictment.

In November 2017, Deng Weigen was double-opened. According to the official report, Deng Weigen-dash;mdash;

  • Violating political discipline, resisting organizational censorship, and engaging in superstitious activities for a long time;

  • Violating the spirit of the eight central regulations, accepting golfing activities arranged by others for many times;

  • Violation of organizational discipline, false reporting of personal matters, and use of power to seek benefits for others in violation of regulations in the promotion of cadres;

  • Violating integrity and discipline, acquiescing to relatives to use the influence of their positions to seek personal gain, accepting gifts that may affect the fair execution of official duties, and occupying vehicles provided by management and service objects for free for a long time;

  • Violation of the discipline of life.

As a party member leading cadre, he has lost ideals and beliefs, is indifferent to party spirit and purpose, is economically greedy, morally corrupt, seriously violates party discipline, and is suspected of crimes.The nature is bad, the circumstances are serious, and should be dealt with seriously.

I did not seriously read the Party Constitution, Party Rules and Party Discipline, so I relaxed my studies, and my awareness of self-discipline gradually weakened.Deng Weigen wrote in his confession after being investigated.

One detail is that one month after Deng Weigen’s fall, the China Disciplinary Inspection and Supervision News once published an article in which the law must be punished to prevent future articles, which named Deng Weigen:

In the case of corruption dens in Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, heavyweight officials including Mao Rongkai, the former secretary of the municipal party committee, and Deng Weigen, the former mayor, were successively sacked.

The secretary of the municipal party committee who formed the team was reported in court

Mao Rongkai, Secretary of the Jiangmen Municipal Party Committee in January 2015.

In June 2016, the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee announced that Lin Yingwu, Director of the Provincial Department of Human Resources and Social Security and Deputy Director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, was appointed Secretary of the Jiangmen Municipal Party Committee.Mao Rongkai was replaced from the top job in Jiangmen. This cadre who had worked in the Guangdong Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection for nine years had only served as Jiangmen Party Secretary for one and a half years.

According to previous reports, when Zhong Shijian, the former deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Guangdong Province, appeared in court, he reported Mao Rongkai in court.On April 1, 2015, Zhong Shijian, then deputy secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, director of the Provincial Supervision Department, and director of the Provincial Bureau of Corruption Prevention, was sacked.

In February last year, Mao Rongkai was double-opened. The official report stated that he left the organization without authorization during his temporary departure to engage in power transactions and had improper sexual relations with others.

In December last year, the first instance of Mao Rongkai's case was held, and the prosecution accused him of accepting bribes:

From 2002 to 2016, the defendant Mao Rongkai took advantage of his position as the magistrate and secretary of the county party committee of Huaiji, Zhaoqing City, member of the Standing Committee and deputy secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and secretary of the Jiangmen Municipal Party Committee to seek benefits for others, and directly or through his close relatives received money from othersThe bribes amounted to RMB 3,234,097 and HKD 580,000.

Like Mayor Deng Weigen, Mao Rongkai also collected money when he was in Jiangmen.

However, the secretary of the municipal party committee was not the only one who fell in the Jiangmen nest case.

From October 20, 2015, Nie Dangquan, then deputy director of the Standing Committee of the Jiangmen Municipal People's Congress (formerly the deputy secretary of the Jiangmen Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Political and Legal Committee), was suspected of serious violations of discipline and was investigated by the organization. He became the first person in Jiangmen to be investigated since the 18th National Congress.After becoming an official, Jiangmen's political arena continued to be in turmoil, and the top leaders of many departments in the city fell one after another.

On May 25, 2016, Mao Rongkai's deputy, Zou Jiajun, was sacked. Then, Jiangmen's top leader changed hands, and the news of Mao Rongkai's accident was spread by the media

In addition, the Jiangmen nest case is also accused of involving the provincial level.

On July 15, 2016, Liu Zhiwei, head of the sixth inspection team of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, was investigated for serious violations of discipline.Some media pointed out that Liu's case was related to the Jiangmen corruption case. Some officials in Jiangmen who had been protected by Liu Zhiwei were arrested and confessed that they had bribed Liu Zhiwei.

After Deng Weigen fell from his horse, it was Liu Yi who put out the fire.

One detail is that Liu Yi, like Lin Yingwu, secretary of the Jiangmen Municipal Party Committee, was the deputy director of the Organization Department of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee before going to Jiangmen to fight the fire.

The urgency of rebuilding the local political ecology can be seen.
