The official Xinhua News Agency says Fang Fenghui's case was transferred Tuesday to the PLA's criminal prosecution body, a move that virtual ensures his conviction at court martial. Xinhua says he's suspected of both giving and taking bribes, formerly a common route to winning promotion and potentially enormous riches.
Fang dropped out of public view last fall, leading to speculation that he was the latest top military official to fall prey to President Xi Jinping's wide-ranging crackdown on corruption.
