Life

Tian was born and raised in Taiyuan, Shanxi, to an ethnic Hui family. It is not clear if he has a university degree.

In 1995 he became the CPC Party Chief of Nanjiao District, a position he held until May 1997, when he was appointed the CPC Party Chief of Xiaodian District. When he presided over party work in Xiaodian, Liu Suiji was district governor; when he left Xiaodian, Liu succeeded him as party chief there.

In 2002 he was transferred to a position in Taiyuan, capital of Shanxi province, and appointed the Vice-Chairman of Taiyuan Municipal People's Congress (futingji), where he was put in charge of legal work and led party-related work.

Tian Yubao retired in May 2012, and disappeared from public life.

On November 3, 2014, it was announced that Tian would be investigated by the Shanxi Commission for Discipline Inspection for "serious violations of laws and regulations".[2] After a quick investigation, Tian was expelled from the Communist Party on December 26. He was accused of taking large bribes and also purchasing stocks in a manner that violated regulations. His retirement benefits were also rescinded by the state, and his case was moved to judicial authorities for prosecution.[2]
