Biography

Liu was born in Qidong County, Hunan, in January 1962. After resuming the college entrance examination, in 1978, he enrolled in Hengyang Branch of Hunan Agricultural College (now Hunan Polytechnic of Environment and Biology). He also studied at Xiangtan University, Central Party School and the University of Baltimore as a part-time student.

After graduating in 1981, he was despatched to Qidong County Bureau of Agriculture as an official. He joined the

Hunan People's Congress Social Development Affairs Committee
, but having held the position for only three months, while he was put under investigation for alleged "serious violations of discipline and laws".

Downfall

On 21 April 2020, he has been placed under investigation for "serious violations of discipline and laws" by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI), the party's internal disciplinary body, and the National Supervisory Commission, the highest anti-corruption agency of China.[3] Liu became the sixth top political official in cities and prefectures of Hunan province to be targeted by China's top anticorruption watchdog since China's continues anti-corruption battle at all levels of government, military and ruling Communist Party was launched in 2012, behind Li Dalun [zh], Cheng Haibo [zh], Li Yilong, Ma Yong and Chen Sanxin.[4] On August 11, his qualification for delegates to the 13th Hunan Congress was terminated. He was detained by the Hunan Provincial People's Procuratorate on October 26.[5] On December 20, he was indicted on suspicion of accepting bribes.[6]

On 14 July 2021, he was expelled from the Communist Party and dismissed from public office.[7]
