The first tiger in Beijing after the 20th National Congress

The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection accused him of “suspecting serious violations of discipline and law” but failed to provide details. Commentary experts analyzed that in the Zhongnanhai collision incident, “high-level officials passed the blame and dignitaries took the blame.” He became the first deputy ministerial-level official to be dismissed from Beijing since the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and the sixth to be investigated in April this year. Central management officer.

Public information shows that Gao Peng, who is nearly 52 years old, has successively served as deputy district chief of Fengtai District in Beijing, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission, and secretary of the Shunyi District Party Committee in Beijing. From January 2023, he will serve as deputy mayor of Beijing.

Gao Peng’s last public appearance was on April 17, when he attended the CCP National Forest and Grassland Fire Prevention and Extinguishing Grassroots Standardized Management Work Conference held in Beijing. Obviously, the CCP conducted its investigation of him very secretly, or it was temporarily requested by the top management to confine him first and investigate later.

Car hits Zhongnanhai

After Gao Peng was dismissed, the incident of a Beijing train crashing into Zhongnanhai during the Two Sessions this year once again attracted outside attention. The incident occurred in the early morning of March 10, when a man drove his car into the main gate of Zhongnanhai (Xinhua Gate) in Beijing. Security measures in Beijing were unprecedented in those days. Tiananmen Square was heavily guarded, police cars were stationed at every intersection on Chang’an Street, police officers were everywhere near Zhongnanhai, and the number of plainclothes people in front of Xinhua Gate more than doubled.

Judging from the video, the impact vehicle was of medium to high-end class and was most likely a local car. It was somehow able to pass through traffic lights and traffic barriers controlled by security personnel. The driver in the video is a male and he is the only one in the car. He was quickly carried away by a group of armed policemen with their hands and feet in the air. The unconfirmed rumors are “retaliation for the long-term wage arrears of the official 50-cent system within the system”, and it is said that “it has been hotly discussed in the official 50-cent circle.”

At that time, Taiwan’s “Liberty Times” reported that the car crash into Zhongnanhai shocked Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping, but did not disclose further details. The General Office of the CPC Central Committee or the Security Bureau should have had to report to Xi that he felt that his own and Zhongnanhai’s office safety was threatened by social anger.

A media person revealed that the location of the incident was near Xinhua Gate in Zhongnanhai. After entering the door was a screen that said “Serve the People”. There was an artificial lake in front of it. On the left and right were passages built around the artificial lake. The office of the State Council was located there. Nearby, Xi Jinping’s office is one kilometer away.

At present, the whereabouts of the driver of the car are unknown, and the incident is still under investigation.

Guests are no longer “full”

Ironically, on the morning after Gao Peng was dismissed, Yin Li, Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee, chaired the Standing Committee meeting and stated that he “firmly supports the party’s decision” and “maintains a high degree of consistency with the central government.” Zero tolerance for corruption” and “Resolute victory The anti-corruption struggle will be a tough and protracted battle,” and so on. The colleagues who greeted him with smiles in the past immediately turned against each other, and the lonely “guo Peng” who was imprisoned never had a “full house” with them again.

Overseas current affairs observers commented: “(The Gao Peng’s dismissal) should be related to the car crashing into the Xinhuamen venue of the National People’s Congress. Now that the blame is being held on him, it can be seen that the authorities are currently inactive against local government staff and will treat all the people they encounter. If you push the issue to middle-level officials and say it is up to them to decide, if you are held accountable, just say it was approved by the leadership, and the senior officials will blame you. If you are a middle-level official and approved it, you will take the blame. You, but your senior officials are responsible for the security around Zhongnanhai, how can you not take responsibility?” Analysts believe that the current characteristic of the CCP’s operation is that when trouble occurs, the grassroots do not act, the middle level takes the blame, and the top level quickly takes the blame.

Since the beginning of this year, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China has reported that the number of central management cadres under investigation has increased to 22. Guangxi scholar Wei Ping said that officials’ “violations of discipline and law” are caused by the current system. He said: “Corruption is inevitable in the soil of the current system. To fundamentally eliminate corruption, we still need to rely on the mutual checks and balances of power and the supervision of public opinion and free media. Under the current system, the main means of controlling corruption are Top-down supervision is ineffective.”

While investigating Gao Peng’s past crimes, it was discovered that the overseas Minghui website accused him of spreading rumors and slandering Falun Gong under the guise of “sweeping out gangs and eradicating evil” and “clearing the country”. As a result, many Falun Gong practitioners were persecuted to death, illegally sentenced, kidnapped, harassed, Searching homes and so on.

Currently, Gaopeng’s profile has been removed from the Beijing Municipal Government website.
