China's state media say a former member of one of China’s top decision-making bodies has been formally charged with accepting bribes a week after Communist Party leaders confirmed his expulsion from the party. Xinhua state news agency said Thursday that prosecutors accused Ma Xingrui of using his leadership positions to accept “exceptionally large” bribes and to secure benefits for others. Ma had been named to the Politburo in 2022 and his downfall became public in April, when authorities said he was being investigated. He was the latest senior official to fall in Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s long-running anti-corruption campaign.
