1. 落马的官员九成包养情妇
新京报9月3日报道，由最高人民检察院主办的“惩治与预防职务犯罪展览”日前在京揭幕。有报道称，过去5年，中国累计查处严重腐败的省部级以上官员16名，这些巨贪的“落马”大多与色、赌、洗钱三大基本方式有关，九成包养情妇，与地产商“权钱交易”以及“权色交易”最为突出。
A report by China's top prosecutor's office said that of 16 provincial-level officials punished for "serious" graft in the last five years, most were involved in "trading power for sex", along with gambling, money-laundering and shady land sales to developers, the Beijing News said on Monday.
Nearly all of the 16 ministry-level officials recently sacked for corruption in China kept mistresses, including Shanghai's former top leader who had several, State press said Monday.
