BEIJING, Aug. 4 (Xinhua) -- China's top anti-graft body has released its first list of guiding cases for the enforcement of the Communist Party of China (CPC) discipline, providing references for anti-graft authorities at all levels in dealing with cases of similar natures.
Unveiled by the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the National Supervisory Commission, the guiding cases focus on typical issues that violate the CPC Central Committee's eight-point decision on improving Party and government conduct, according to a statement issued on the commission's website on Wednesday. These issues include the practice of formalities for formalities' sake, holding lavish weddings or funerals, and embezzling public funds for banquets.
In addition to case details, the statement also outlined the key points of the enforcement of discipline in the cases, and the rationale that determined their nature and the statutes applicable to them. Enditem
