BEIJING, July 25 (Xinhua) -- Three drug-related criminal suspects, who had been on the run in north Myanmar for years and were wanted by Chinese police, have been extradited to China as part of the law enforcement collaboration efforts between the two countriesoneeyedjacksvideopoker.
According to the Ministry of Public Security, Chinese police transported the three fugitives, who were turned over by the Myanmar side, back to China on Wednesday evening.
To date, six of the 10 major drug-related fugitives in northern Myanmar who were wanted by Chinese police have been apprehended, according to the ministry.
The three fugitives extradited this week, namely Zhang Anlong, Ma Wenxiang and Yang Jinmei, who for years had been on the run abroad, were all key members of a transnational drug trafficking network.
They are suspected of engaging in multiple major cases of smuggling and trafficking drugs into China. These cases were investigated by police forces in Hunan, Hubei, Yunnan, Guangxi, and other regions of China, with over 2,000 kilograms of drugs involved in the cases.
Chinese public security authorities have promoted international police enforcement cooperation since 2020 and have caught a large number of fugitives who had smuggled drugs into China and hidden overseas, especially those located in northern areas of Myanmar.
Police have urged drug-related fugitives to return to China and turn themselves in promptly, as such actions could result in leniency. Chinese police have also pledged to strengthen international police enforcement cooperation and make all-out efforts to pursue drug-related fugitives.■
