Prosecutors step up fight against graft

Prosecuting departments in East China's Jiangsu province have worked together with government agencies and the public to establish a joint duty crime prevention system to fight against corruption.

Lin Zhimei, director of the duty crime prevention department at the Nanjing People's Procuratorate, said the provincial capital established the duty crime prevention working committee in June, consisting of 25 governmental departments.

Under the supervision and coordination of the working committee, Lin said almost all Party and government authorities and large and medium-sized State-owned enterprises have established leading panels to monitor duty crime including corruption, bribery and malfeasance. Non-State-owned enterprises have also appointed liaison officers responsible for monitoring corruption.
