A senior Chinese Communist Party school official in northwest Shaanxi Province has been sacked over a sex scandal, state media reported today.
Qin Guogang, vice president of the Party School of the Shaanxi Committee of the CPC, was expelled from the party and dismissed from his post after an official probe into allegations of a sexual relationship with a female postgraduate student.
Qin was embroiled in the sex scandal after photos of a naked man resembling him appeared online last Monday.
According to posts in cyberspace, he maintained sexual relations with the postgraduate for more than a year with the promise of marrying her.
He along with his wife later reportedly beat the student in a school office.
The photos were stills from a video shot on August 13, 2013 in the residence of the student, state-run Xinhua news agency quoted her lawyer as saying.
