Pursue fleeing and stolen targets more accurately
The blade is out of its sheath again.
On February 24, the "Skynet 2021" operation was officially launched.
In this operation, we have listed and supervised the escape cases that have fled in recent years, at the county level or above, the amount involved in the case is large, the political influence is bad, and the masses have a strong reaction, and continue to increase the pursuit of fleeing corrupt elements in the fields of finance, state-owned enterprises, politics and law, and people's livelihood. Intensity, and continue to release a strong signal of unchanged attitude, undiminished determination, and uncompromising standards
Operation "Skynet" is an important action deployed by the Central Anti-Corruption Coordination Group to target corrupt elements fleeing.
In June 2014, the Central Office for Pursuit of Fleeing and Fleeing was formally established. In 2015, it organized and carried out the "Skynet" operation. So far, it has gone through 6 years of sonorous history. The anti-corruption international fleeing pursuit and recovery of stolen goods have been reported frequently. The operation has become a landmark operation for the pursuit of escaped stolen goods.
On December 22, 2014, Wang Guoqiang, former secretary of the Fengcheng Municipal Committee of Liaoning Province, returned to China from the United States to submit the case.
Wang Guoqiang is the first corruption suspect to return to China from the United States to surrender after the establishment of the Central Office for Pursuit of Fleeing Crimes.
In March 2015, the Central Pursuit Office deployed the "Skynet" operation, requiring concentrated time and effort to "catch a group of corrupt elements, clear a group of illegal licenses, crack down on a group of underground banks, recover a group of assets involved, and persuade Return a batch of escaped people."
On March 28, Pang Shunxi, former director of the Tianjin State Taxation Bureau, and An Huimin, former general manager of Tianjin Port Free Trade Zone Hantong International Trade Co., Ltd., were successfully escorted back to China. This is the first anti-corruption international "Skynet" operation for fleeing and recovering stolen goods The result.
On May 9, after more than four years of fleeing abroad, Li Huabo, the "number two" of the "hundred-hundred red-pass personnel," and the "one hundred million yuan chief" by the media was deported back to China.
Whether it is the "tigers" and "flies" hiding in the country, or the "foxes" hiding abroad, they will not escape the magnificent net of party discipline and state laws.
On December 5, Huang Yurong, the "number four" of the "hundred red-pass personnel," who was stranded in the United States for 13 years, returned to China and surrendered. He was also the first red-pass fugitive to return from the United States to surrender the case since Operation Skynet.
Since 2016, the name of the "Skynet" operation has been officially fixed in the form of "Skynet + Year". Since then, the deployment of the "Skynet" operation every year has become a prescribed action for the pursuit of stolen goods.
According to public data, since the launch of the "Skynet" operation, the number of escaped persons recovered has been increasing year by year-1023 escaped persons were recovered and 3 billion yuan of stolen money recovered in 2015; "Skynet 2016" operation recovered the escaped 1032 personnel and 2.4 billion yuan of stolen money were recovered; “Skynet 2017” operation recovered 1,300 people who fled and 980 million yuan of stolen money; “Skynet 2018” operation recovered 1,335 people who fled and 3.541 billion yuan of stolen money , The amount of stolen goods recovered increased by 261% over 2017; the “Skynet 2019” operation recovered 2,041 people who had fled and 5.42 billion yuan in stolen money recovered, reaching the highest level in history.
Despite the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the "Skynet 2020" operation still recovered the total number of 1,421 escaped persons, the second best result since the establishment of the Central Fleeing Office in 2014, second only to the previous year; the amount recovered was 2.95 billion yuan It is basically the same as the average since 2014.
Behind these lively figures are the firm determination to chase to the end and the firm determination to pursue escapes and recover stolen goods, which shows that the escape route for escaped persons has become narrower and narrower, and they are still imagining that they will be greedy. Just run, just run" will inevitably fall into a dead end.
The Central Office for Escape Pursuits coordinated the relevant departments and concentrated all resources to pursue escape and stolen stolen goods. An important starting point was to advance individual cases, successfully break through a number of typical cases, and continue to strengthen the high pressure situation.
On November 12, 2016, with the close cooperation of Chinese and New Zealand law enforcement agencies, Yan Yongming, a "hundred red-pass personnel" who had absconded for 15 years, returned to China to surrender the case.
On November 16, 2016, Yang Xiuzhu, the number one suspect of "hundred red-pass personnel" who had absconded overseas for 13 years, returned to China and surrendered.
The Yang Xiuzhu case is one of the most difficult, complex, and successful overseas escape cases in recent years. It has formed a comprehensive international escape recovery process, rich tactics, and reference significance. It is my country’s anti-corruption international A landmark case of escaping and recovering stolen goods.
On November 7, 2017, the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China had just concluded. He Jian, the "hundred red-pass personnel", returned to China to vote.

In January 2020, the Intermediate People’s Court of Yueyang City, Hunan Province applied the confiscation procedure for illegal income, and ruled in accordance with the law to confiscate the illegal income of "Hongtong personnel" Peng Xufeng, Jiasiyu and other property involved...
Focusing on policy coordination with one hand and focusing on key cases with the other, the determination and will to pursue and pursue stolen goods without stopping can be seen.
The reporter noticed that the "Skynet" operation each year continues to extend the experience of the previous year, and constantly upgrades its style of play according to the new situation and new conditions faced by the pursuit of fleeing and stolen stolen goods. The tools in the toolbox are becoming more and more abundant, making this piece of work spread globally. "Skynet" exerts strong power.
On April 22, 2015, one month after the launch of the "Skynet" operation, the Interpol China National Central Bureau published a red arrest warrant for 100 suspected criminals who escaped from the country and those involved in important corruption cases.
The naming of the surnamed publicly exposed hundreds of fleeing people, releasing a strong signal that corrupt people must be pursued even if they are far away, which is conducive to strengthening international cooperation and global participation, and improving the efficiency of tracing and recovering stolen goods.
During the "Skynet 2017" and "Skynet 2018" operations, the Central Office for Pursuit of Fleeing and Fugitives announced to the public the hidden clues of the escaped persons who have not returned.
On August 23, 2018, the State Supervision Commission, the Supreme Law, the Supreme Procuratorate, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs jointly issued the "Announcement on Urging Foreigners Fugitives in Duty Crimes to Surrender to the Case". This is the first time that my country has targeted overseas suspects in fugitives. The issued announcement urging the surrender of the case, under the policy and high pressure, within four months, the country recovered a total of 441 people who fled, including 165 who voluntarily surrendered.
Through the media and the Internet, publicly exposing those who have not yet been recovered, using this method not only creates a powerful offensive for chasing fleeing and recovering stolen goods, effectively squeezing the living space of fleeing corrupt elements, but also occupying the moral commanding heights, and enhancing the international community’s efforts to pursue and recover stolen goods from my country Understanding and support.
In March 2018, the establishment of the State Supervision Commission marked a new stage in the anti-corruption international pursuit of escaped and stolen stolen goods.
Unlike previous “Skynet” operations, the deployment of “Skynet 2018” clearly stated that “the National Supervisory Commission will take the lead in launching a special operation for international fleeing and recovering stolen goods for duty crimes”. Disciplinary inspection and supervision agencies must not only continue to coordinate and coordinate the work of fleeing and recovering stolen goods. , And became the organizing department of the case, playing a leading role in collecting evidence, applying the law, internal working procedures, external cooperation, and international cooperation.
The "Skynet 2018" operation created several firsts-the first criminal judicial assistance in the name of the State Supervision Commission, the first extradition request based on the United Nations Convention against Corruption without an extradition treaty, and the first successful extradition from an EU member state The official suspect Yao Jinqi.
All these are vivid footnotes of pursuing escaped and stolen goods based on the rule of law thinking.
As part of the "Skynet 2019" operation, the National Supervisory Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection organized for the first time the national disciplinary inspection and supervision agency to carry out a special operation for international crime recovery and stolen stolen goods, and achieved fruitful results-a total of 969 people who had escaped from work crime were recovered nationwide, of which " There were 16 Hongtong personnel, and 2.437 billion yuan was recovered.
The four “hundred red-pass personnel” cases, Xiao Jianming, Liu Baofeng, Mo Peifen, and Huang Ping, were all sponsored by the discipline inspection and supervision organs. The State Supervision Commission organized for the first time a concentrated arrest operation. Recovery, the institutional advantages formed by the reform of the supervisory system are fully transformed into governance efficiency in the field of chasing and recovering stolen goods.
From mainly relying on persuasive methods in the past, to focusing on repatriation, extradition, and off-site prosecution, since the reform of the supervision system, the work of tracing and recovering stolen goods is on the track of standardization and rule of law.
During the "Skynet 2020" operation, the State Supervision Commission took the lead in carrying out law enforcement cooperation with foreign parties, and requested the foreign law enforcement agencies to arrest and repatriate three suspected criminal suspects, including "Hongtong personnel" Yang Yurong, Zang Chunwei, and Zhang Hengxian.
From chasing evasion and stolen goods together, catching escaping and preventing stolen goods together, to promoting the integrated construction of chasing escaping, preventing evasion and stolen goods, and then advancing the integrated pursuit of escaping, preventing escaping and stolen goods. After years of actual combat experience, the thinking of "Skynet" has become clearer The goals become more precise and the methods mature.
Now that "Skynet 2021" is ready to go, we will wait and see what surprises it will bring to us.
