China News Network Fuzhou, June 24 (Zheng Jiangluo) Vice President of Fujian Provincial High People's Court Wu Zhongxia disclosed on the 24th that since 2019, the Fujian Provincial Courts have tried 3,676 new cases of drug crimes, and concluded 3,475 cases. The judgment has legal effect. There are 3822 criminals.

  On the same day, the Fujian High Court held a press conference to introduce the relevant situation in the fight against drug crimes and released typical cases.

  Wu Zhongxia said that since 2019, the number of drug crime cases accepted by courts of first instance in Fujian has decreased by 15.82% year-on-year, and the number of large-scale drug crimes has also shown a downward trend. Drug crime cases account for about 6% of all criminal cases.

  Currently, drug abuse shows a multi-generational stacking trend. Wu Zhongxia pointed out that from the types of drugs involved, the drugs involved have evolved from traditional first-generation drugs mainly based on opium and heroin to second-generation drugs mainly based on new synthetic drugs such as methamphetamine and ketamine. Drug-generation crime cases account for about 80%.

  It is worth noting that the third-generation drugs with complex compositions such as flunitrazepam and "fairy water" have developed rapidly in recent years, and new types of drug-related crimes such as methylcathone have also occurred from time to time. Wu Zhongxia said that the source of such drug raw materials is relatively easy to obtain, the manufacturing process is relatively simple, the production cycle is short, and the difficulty of combating is increased.

  Wu Zhongxia also analyzed and pointed out that with the rapid development of technological means represented by the Internet, the use of WeChat and other online instant messaging tools to contact drug sales and drug money transfers has increased suddenly, and drug transactions are more liquid and random, which makes it difficult to distinguish, With the characteristics of stolen goods and hardship, drug crime activities are becoming more and more concealed, making it increasingly difficult to crack down.

  He said that drug crimes have high profits and high risks. Drug criminals often take risks in order to obtain high profits. Violent drug protection often occurs. In drug crimes, crimes involving guns, blacks, and evils are often accompanied. (Finish)
