China punished nearly 300k for graft in 2015
China's Communist Party has punished nearly 3,00,000 members in 2015 for corruption as a part of President Xi Jinping's efforts to increase transparency. China's graft watchdog claimed that 82,000 members received heavy punishments while 200,000 got lighter punishments like transfers. Notably, the Communist Party takes action against wrongdoers using internal mechanisms before going to the court.
