Nineteen thousand suspects have been arrested in a drive against organised-crime in China, state media said.
“The message we want to send out is that the police have zero tolerance to any kind of illegal activities, including triad activities”, Au said.
Au said that five major undercover operations were carried out during the sweep between June and September. The fragmented groups are largely responsible for extortion, drug and arms trafficking, as well as prostitution and gambling.
– Some parts of the artificial island to be used for the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge project might have moved but it is safe overall, said Hong Kong’s Director of Highways Lau Ka-keung, responding to reports that some parts of the 150-hectare island built for the bridge’s boundary crossing facilities had been moving by as much as seven metres. The company is targeting HK$10 billion Hong Kong property sales in the coming financial year, 42 percent less than last year.
It came in response to intelligence, which suggested that triads operating out of Hong Kong and Macau have changed their tactics and started making forays into the mainland, in order to cooperate with local criminal elements and plan activities, a Guangdong police officer said.
The nests were purchased in Hong Kong, transported to Macao and illegally brought to the mainland via the Gongbei Port starting April past year.
These roundups have been happening every year since 2000, but last year’s operation was put on hold because Occupy Central – a Hong Kong protest movement – was in full swing.
On the other side of the border, mainland police arrested 11,339 suspects – along with 31,651 drug addicts – in Guangdong province during the operation.
