Chinese media describe charges that led to arrest warrant for son of ex-governor
According to Chinese media accounts, Cheng Weigao, the former governor of Hebei was stripped of power and expelled from the Chinese communist party for corruption.
According to Chinese media reports, Muyang Cheng is the only son of Cheng Weigao, the former governor of Hebei.
Hong Kong’s Now TV reported that Cheng Weigao was a “close ally” of former Chinese president Jiang Zemin.
After Zemin stepped down as China’s leader, Cheng Weigao was stripped of power and expelled for corruption.
The former governor had allegedly “interfered in government affairs to seek benefit for his son” and allowed “his spouse and children to use his position of influence to engage in unregulated and illegal activities,” according to a 2003 report by AFP.
According to Now TV, though, “under the protection of” Jiang Zemin, Cheng Weigao “remained to enjoy retirement benefits” and passed away in 2010.
In 2003 the Heifei Evening Post reported that after Muyang Cheng graduated from university in 1991, “with the help from his father, Muyang Cheng had created 32 companies both in China and overseas within 10 years.”
The paper reported that Muyang Cheng’s businesses included advertising and real estate investment.
“By 2000, Muyang Cheng had accumulated hundreds of millions of dollars” the Heifei Evening Post reported. “Muyang Cheng went to Canada through Hong Kong on Sept. 4, 2000.”
According to the newspaper, in 2001 the Shijiazhuang Public Security Bureau issued an arrest warrant for Muyang Cheng on charges of “transferring and harbouring stolen or illegally acquired goods.”
The Public Security Bureau then issued a “Class A” warrant against Muyang Cheng and later the suspect was added to the Interpol Red Notice list, the paper reported.
Charges against Muyang Cheng in April were publicized globally, with his mug shot featured in China state media’s official report on “Operation Sky Net” — a Chinese government information campaign aimed at smoking corruption suspects out of hiding in Canada, the U.S., and other countries.
Operation Sky Net information asserts that Muyang Cheng is in Canada.
