A former senior legislator of north China's Hebei Province has been expelled from the Communist Party of China (CPC) and dismissed from public office for multiple offenses including taking bribes, the top anti-graft body said Friday.

Zhang Jiehui, a former deputy director of the Standing Committee of the Hebei Provincial People's Congress, was found to have engaged in superstitious activities violating Party rules, according to a statement released by the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI).

The CCDI investigation found that Zhang violated organizational rules in securing his promotion and sought benefits in selection of officials.

He was also found investing in public-listed companies against the rules, and trading power and money for sex.

As a senior official of the CPC, he has lost his faith. Even after the 18th CPC National Congress in 2012, he still showed no signs of restraint and his wrongdoings were of a grave nature, said the statement.

Zhang's illegal gains will be confiscated and his case transferred to the judiciary, it added.

The CCDI announced the investigation into Zhang for "severe disciplinary violations" last December.
