No safe haven in China's corruption crackdown: People's Daily
The People's Daily, the mouthpiece newspaper of the Communist Party, said the probe into Zhou reflects the party's ability to self-regulate. It added that everyone is equal in the face of party rules and no one has special privileges.
On party discipline, the paper said "no one should bet on the odds of escape and entertain the illusion that there is some kind of safe box".
Zhou, 71, is the highest-profile figure caught up in President Xi Jinping's crackdown on corruption since the party swept to power in 1949.
