“A former official in charge of regulating a massive waste dump that collapsed in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen has killed himself, local police said Monday. The former director of the Urban District Administrative Enforcement Bureau in the city’s Guangming district where the landslide disaster took place December 20, jumped off a residential building Sunday night, the Shenzhen Nanshan District public security bureau said on its official Weibo social media account. Police and state media have not said whether Xu had been directly responsible for authorizing the dump.”
