BEIJING, March 17 (Xinhua) -- Jiang Chaoliang, previously a member of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress (NPC), China's top legislature, has been indicted on charges of accepting bribes, the Supreme People's Procuratorate announced on Tuesday.

Jiang, also a former vice chairperson of the NPC Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee, is accused of taking advantage of a series of his previous positions, mainly in the country's financial system, to benefit others while accepting extremely large amounts of money and gifts in return.

Jiang's case has been filed by the municipal people's procuratorate of Nanjing in east China's Jiangsu Province to the city's intermediate people's court, as assigned by the top procuratorate.

In October 2025, an official statement announced that Jiang had been expelled from the Communist Party of China and dismissed from public office, as a result of an earlier investigation into his suspected violations of Party discipline and the law. ■
