[Explanation] After 20 days of hard work, the police of Zhengzhou and Jinan Railways jointly solved the case of "2.5" oversized production and sales of fake and shoddy masks. Successfully arrested 18 criminal suspects involved in the production and sale of fake and shoddy products, and seized more than 320,000 fake and shoddy medical masks.

On March 5th, the police at the Zhengzhou Railway Station Police Station of the Zhengzhou Railway Public Security Department introduced the ins and outs of the case to reporters.

[Contemporary] (Zhengzhou Railway Police Station Zhengzhou Station Police Station Interpol Sergeant Mao Junjie) At about 18:00 on February 5th, the Zhengzhou Station Police Station received reports from the public that a shipping company at Zhengzhou Railway Station was shipping counterfeit and inferior masks. Police arrived at the scene and found that the outer packaging of the masks was very rough. By contacting mask manufacturer PiaoAn, PiaoAn confirmed that the masks were counterfeit and inferior products. The police will report the case to the Zhengzhou Railway Public Security Department.

[Contemporary] (Liu Yongjun, captain of the police station of Zhengzhou Railway Police Station, Zhengzhou Railway Public Security Bureau) Sheng, a buyer from a Henan company, bought it from Zhang, a criminal suspect in Sishui County, Jining City, Shandong Province, through the Internet. At that time, 500,000 masks were in talks, and the payment was 375,000 yuan. The first batch of 300,000 masks was delivered to Shengmou by express, but after receiving the goods, Shengmou found that the masks were relatively inferior and requested a return. Reported by the masses during the return process.

[Explanation] Due to the impact of the epidemic at that time, all personnel entering and leaving the city and provincial boundaries needed to be observed for 7 to 14 days. The restaurants and accommodations along the way were not opened, making travel extremely inconvenient. The Zhengzhou Railway Public Security Office immediately reported the case to the Railway Public Security Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security.

At present, masks have become a necessity for everyone because they can effectively cut off the spread of pathogens. The Railway Public Security Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security attaches great importance to this case, and issued the No. 3 and No. 4 supervision instructions to the Zhengzhou and Jinan Railway police, respectively, requesting timely detection. Zhengzhou and Jinan Railway Public Security Department immediately established a joint task force, arrested 18 suspects, and seized more than 320,000 fake and inferior masks.

[Contemporary] (Liu Yongjun, Captain of the Police Station of Zhengzhou Railway Police Station, Zhengzhou Railway Public Security Bureau) We and the Jinan Police carried out a "cloud collaboration" through the Internet, negotiated the case through the Internet, and formulated a arrest plan. After examining the confessions of 14 suspects, the production dens of (counterfeit and inferior masks) are still in two places in Changyuan and Huaxian, Henan.
