BEIJING, Jan. 14-- The decision to expel two former senior officials from the Communist Party of China (CPC) was confirmed at the fifth plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) on Wednesday.

The meeting confirmed expulsion of Shen Weichen, former Party secretary and executive vice president of China Association for Science and Technology, and Liang Bin, former head of the Organization Department of the CPC Hebei Provincial Committee. Liang was also former member of the Standing Committee of the CPC Hebei Provincial Committee.

Shen was found to have taken advantage of his post to seek profits for others and accepted "a huge amount in bribes" by an investigation launched by the CCDI in April 2014. His case has been handed over to prosecutors.h Liang has been under probe since November for serious violations of CPC discipline and he is suspected of breaking the law.

Both men were members of the 130-strong CCDI.
