Font size

The nine-in-one general election is approaching. Last night (13th), the Police Department of the Ministry of the Interior integrated all police agencies across the country and mobilized 4,000 police officers to launch the "National Synchronous Operation to Combat Gangster Activities" project. What is different from the past is that this project targets the case of Zhang Junjie abandoning bail and absconding, as well as the "local collaborators" who implemented "cross-border suppression" in cases such as Shen Boyang and Huang Yihao.

Criminal Police Chief Qiu Shaozhou explained at a press conference today that this project is different from routine expanded inspections. The main reason is that when the police were investigating Zhang Junjie's connections, connecting and covering accomplices who abandoned bail and absconded, they found that most of them were related to gangs. Therefore, they took a comprehensive inventory of the places where these local gang members often come and go, where they conduct sieges, and where they make their living.

After launching the special project yesterday, 4,000 police forces across the country were mobilized to conduct a total of 750 inspections, of which 21 applied for search tickets from the court. A total of 337 criminal cases and 320 suspects were seized. It is understood that the gang members who were raided span all gangs, and gangs such as Bamboo Alliance, Sihai, Tiandaomeng and other gangs have their business bases or members that have been raided.

Yue Yingzong, chief of the Anti-Gangster Section of the Criminal Bureau, further pointed out that this operation sets the tone to attack gangs who serve as "local collaborators." In addition to assisting key national security criminals to escape and hide from north to south, different gangs are also involved in several recent "cross-border suppression" cases that have attracted much attention and are even directly executed.

The most important thing in a systematic crackdown on gangs is "beating people, money, and industries." This project is a nationwide crackdown that precisely targets the "beating industries" and carries out special inspections on the economic sources and specific places where gangs depend, in order to increase crime costs and risks, reduce illegal gains, and give gangs a real deterrent.

When asked whether the crackdown targeted the "fifth column", Yue Yingzong said that the fifth column is a military term. From the police's point of view, whether they are gang members or non-gang members, as long as they assist key criminals to abscond or are suspected of cross-border suppression, they are criminals. As long as a crime is committed, the police will definitely pursue it to the end.

The Criminal Bureau emphasized that "there is no timetable for the anti-gang operation." The goal is to trace the source, root out the root cause and cut off the money flow. It will continue to thoroughly investigate and deal with it strictly to the end.

What to Watch

AI outlook — possibilities, not facts

Xiao Wang was not guilty of threatening his married girlfriend by shouting "Bring out the big guns" without showing off his gun.

Chen Nan got into an argument with his married girlfriend after they broke up. In July 2023, he broke into the barber shop where his girlfriend worked and choked the male customer by "bringing out both big and small hair." In the first instance, he was sentenced for intimidation. After examining the recording, the Tainan Branch of the High Court found that it was only provocation and changed the verdict to not guilty of intimidation. However, at the end of August of the same year, Chen took out the keys to his girlfriend's motorcycle and injured her head and face. From October to December, he was summoned, harassed by messages, and made a scene in a barber shop. The second instance rejected the appeal and sentenced him to six months in prison for injury and three violations of the protection order, with the possibility of a fine.
