On the evening of January 30, at Changshui Airport in Kunming, Yunnan Province, a Chinese civil aviation charter plane landed slowly, marking an important achievement of China's joint efforts with Myanmar to crack down on telecommunications network fraud. In this operation, Bai Suocheng, Bai Yingcang, Wei Huairen, Liu Zhengxiang, Liu Zhengmao, and Xu Laofa, six important leaders of the wire fraud syndicate in northern Myanmar, were successfully chartered back to China, which was another major blow to the overseas fraud syndicate.
For a long time, fraudsters in the Kokang region of northern Myanmar have been engaged in large-scale activities to commit telecommunications network fraud against Chinese citizens, and the circumstances of the crime are extremely heinous and the social harm is extremely serious. In order to completely eradicate this "cancer", China's Ministry of Public Security and Myanmar** continue to carry out law enforcement and security cooperation, and continue to deepen international police and law enforcement cooperation.
The six leaders of the electric fraud who were successfully chartered back to China this time belong to the Bai family, the Wei family and the Liu family, which are among the so-called "four major families of electric fraud in northern Myanmar". These family crime groups have wantonly opened fraud dens, openly armed to protect fraud, and frantically carried out telecommunications network fraud against Chinese citizens, with huge amounts of fraud, and are suspected of intentional homicide, intentional injury, illegal detention and other serious violent crimes.
Prior to this operation, China's public security organs had issued arrest warrants for Ming Xuechang, a "veteran leader" of the Kokang Autonomous Region in northern Myanmar, and others, and publicly offered a reward for the arrest of important leaders of the family crime syndicate in northern Myanmar. Subsequently, Ming Xuechang committed suicide, and his children Ming Guoping and Ming Julan, and granddaughter Ming Zhenzhen were transferred to China the next day.
On the evening of December 10, 2023, China's Ministry of Public Security once again issued a blockbuster arrest warrant, offering a reward of up to 500,000 yuan for the arrest of ten telecom network fraud leaders in northern Myanmar, including many members of the four major families in northern Myanmar. The Bai family, the Wei family, and the Liu family, headed by Liu Zhengxiang, the richest man in Kokang, are all on the list. The leaders of these family criminal syndicates use telecommunications networks to carry out fraudulent activities, and their criminal acts have brought huge economic losses and mental harm to the people.
In order to combat the arrogance of overseas fraud syndicates, the Ministry of Public Security and Myanmar** continue to carry out law enforcement and security cooperation. Yunnan public security organs continue to deepen border police law enforcement cooperation with relevant local law enforcement agencies in Myanmar40,000 suspects of telecommunications network fraud in northern Myanmar were handed over to our side, including 171 behind-the-scenes "financiers", organizational leaders and backbones, and 2,908 online fugitives.
The successful charter flight of six wire fraud leaders back to China is another major achievement of China's joint efforts with Myanmar to crack down on telecommunications network fraud. This fully demonstrates the firm determination and strong will of the two countries to jointly crack down on transnational telecommunications network fraud and jointly maintain security and stability.
The public security organs said that they will always maintain a high-pressure posture of cracking down on such crimes, continue to deepen international law enforcement cooperation, continue to arrest important leaders of telecommunications network fraud criminal groups, promote special crackdown actions in depth, resolutely safeguard the safety of people's lives and property, and earnestly maintain border security and stability.
Cracking down on telecommunications network fraud is an arduous task that requires all countries to work together to maintain world security and stability. China will continue to strengthen cooperation with other countries to jointly crack down on telecommunications network fraud and create a safe and stable social environment for the people.
