Political and legal agencies nationwide have launched a focused campaign against organized crime and evil forces, as part of efforts to promote the modernization of political and legal work in China in 2023. The campaign aims to safeguard national political security, ensure social stability, promote fairness and justice, and guarantee peace and contentment for the people.
In an effort to deepen and become more practical in efforts to combat organized crime, the Central Political and Legal Affairs Commission and the National Anti-Crime Office, along with member units in various regions, have implemented Xi Jinping’s thought on the rule of law and the central government’s decision-making and deployment on promoting the normalization of combating gangs and evil.
The campaign has effectively cracked down on gangster crimes, resulting in a notable improvement in the social security situation, ultimately providing the people with an enhanced sense of security.
Key areas of focus for the campaign include the comprehensive collection of clues related to gangs and crimes, the handling of major cases, and the deepening of source governance. The campaign has led to the uprooting of criminal organizations and the resolution of thousands of criminal cases, resulting in an improved social security situation and the people’s continued sense of security.
The campaign has also led to the implementation of strong measures targeting network-related organized crime, with successful efforts to eliminate Internet-related criminal organizations and to purify the network environment.
Efforts to combat organized crime also include ongoing investigations into key cases, such as the recent sentencing of the leader of Guilin’s first “black property” criminal group to 18 years in prison, along with 14 others.
In addition to handling cases, political and legal agencies are working to significantly improve the social security situation by tackling the root causes of organized crime. Efforts to deepen source governance have led to a significant drop in violent crime rates in specific areas and the conclusion of major criminal cases involving criminal forces.
Looking ahead, political and legal agencies nationwide are committed to persisting in the long-term struggle against organized crime, treating both symptoms and root causes, and providing precise supervision to create a safe and stable social environment. Their efforts are contributing to the comprehensive construction of a modern socialist country and promoting a safe and stable social environment for all.
