BEIJING — The ex-railways minister who led the rapid expansion of China's bullet train network has been charged with taking bribes and abusing his power in one of China's biggest graft investigations.

The official Xinhua News Agency says prosecutors filed charges with a Beijing court in the long-awaited case of Liu Zhijun. The brief report Wednesday says the court has accepted the case and will set a trial date.

Liu was appointed in 2003 and dismissed in February 2011 for unspecified discipline violations. News reports suggested charges against him might include taking kickbacks and bribes, illegally awarding contracts and engaging in sexual liaisons.

Liu led the rapid growth of China's bullet train network, which has become the world's biggest. Following his firing, the government scaled back ambitious expansion plans.
