Chinese authorities outlined corruption allegations against the former No. 2 executive at China Petrochemical Corp. as they expelled him from the ruling Communist Party and handed his case to prosecutors.
Wang Tianpu, the former general manager of Asia’s biggest refiner, also known as Sinopec Group, committed serious violations of party rules and discipline, the country’s top anti-graft agency said in a statement Friday. He abused his position to solicit bribes and seek promotions and used company money for personal gain, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection said, without providing details.
