634 fugitives abroad seized in "Fox Hunt" campaign

Xinhua, October 25, 2016 Adjust font size:

Thanks to China's "Fox Hunt 2016" campaign, police have 634 fugitives in custody, including 16 listed in an Interpol red notice, after they fled China to avoid answering for their alleged crimes, according to the Ministry of Public Security (MPS).

A document issued at an MPS meeting Monday said that of the 634 fugitives, 50 are implicated in duty-related crimes, and 31 in smuggling. Forty-eight had been at large for more than five years, of whom 17 had been for over a decade.

The ministry said that despite the success of the campaign thus far, it will not rest on its laurels and international cooperation will be improved to ensure all criminals are brought to justice. Endit
