BEIJING - Chen Tiexin, a senior political advisor in Northeast China's Liaoning province, was expelled from the Communist Party of China (CPC) and dismissed from public office for graft, according to the Party discipline inspection agency on Tuesday.
Chen was vice chairman of the Liaoning Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
Investigations found that Chen took advantage of his post to seek profits for others, accepted "a huge amount in bribes" and committed adultery, said a statement from the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI).
Chen seriously violated CPC discipline and is suspected of breaking the law, the statement said.
His illegal gains have been confiscated and his case has been handed over to prosecutors, it added.
The CCDI announced the investigation into Chen in July.
