    Real corruption crack down or are these merely the losers is China's constant struggle for power among the Communist Party elite?

    Quite a way to lose, and that £8.5 bn cannot save you.

      The main guy's family had $14 billion US confiscated by the state. It is unknown if they have more. The guy who was just sentenced to death is an associate/underling. He was rich too, but I don't think he was that rich. Either way, in China, they take your money away first, and then arrest you.

        Well I guess if they take your money away, you know what is coming. No suicides though, or perhaps they are not reported much.

          I don't think they have the opportunity to suicide. Once they start losing the power struggle, they are under constant watch.
