BEIJING (Reuters) - China's government has sacked two senior officials
and will prosecute 18 others following an explosion in August at a car parts
factory that killed 146, the country's worst industrial accident this year,
state media reported.
A room filled with metal dust exploded in Jiangsu province at the
Kunshan Zhongrong factory that polished wheel hubs for car makers, including
General Motors Co.
Kunshan city's Communist Party boss Guan Aiguo and mayor Lu Jun have
been removed from their posts, while deputy provincial governor Shi Heping has
been given an administrative punishment, Xinhua news agency said late on
Tuesday.
The 18 people who will be prosecuted include Wu Chitao, chairman of
Kunshan Zhongrong Metal Products, the company that owned the workshop, and the
company's general manager and a manager in charge of workplace safety, the news
agency said.
