Chongqing, Oct. 28 -- Police in a southwest Chinese city on Tuesday said a criminal investigation has been launched against "Taiwan independence" separatist Shen Pao-yang on suspicion of secession.

The case was opened to resolutely combat Shen's criminal acts of secession, including initiating and establishing the separatist organization, the Kuma Academy, said a statement from the Chongqing police.

Shen, a Taipei native in his 40s, was put on the list of obstinate "Taiwan independence" separatists by the Taiwan Affairs Office of China's State Council last October.
