(Xinhua)
Updated: 2009-07-25 19:44 WUHAN: Two official, including a municipal Party chief, were removed from their posts on Saturday for "mishandling a mass incident" triggered by a chef's death, local authorities in Shishou city, central China's Hubei Province said Saturday.
A 24-year-old cook, Tu Yuangao, was found lying dead at the gate of a hotel in Shishou on the evening of June 17. Police found no suspicious injuries and concluded the man had killed himself by falling from a high building. Tu's family and the public, however, were not convinced, and online rumors emerged. Shishou officials did not act until after about 80 hours of silence, fueling rampant rumors which resulted in an unrest when angry locals obstructed two streets, burnt the hotel and smashed several vehicles. |
