Fallen former Interpol president Meng Hongwei rose through the ranks of China's feared public security apparatus before being caught himself in President Xi Jinping's no-holds-barred campaign against corruption. The vice public security minister, who went missing after travelling to China last month, resigned as head of the France-based international police organisation on Sunday after Chinese authorities announced he was under investigation. According to a statement released Monday by China's Ministry of Public Security, Meng is suspected of accepting bribes and is under investigation by the country's anti-corruption agency.
