Darkness in the guise of “Sunlight” (Yangguang)
In June 2000, Yangguang (Anda) Consultation Service, in the name of obtaining visas for their clients, organized three groups of laborers from Henan province, 19 in all, charging them each 12000 yuan RMB and promising that they could work in Brunei. Because this company did not keep their promise, these laborers, after arriving in Brunei, had nothing to do but wandering in the streets, jobless, homeless and miserable. This case brought shame to China.

In September, upon receiving instructions from the Ministry of Public Security, this Administration, in collaboration with the water police section of the Public Security Bureau of Guangzhou, immediately began to look into the case and soon found firm evidence of the criminal activities. In September 26, we took action, raiding this company and obtained a range of physical and literary evidence, and meted out criminal detention to 5 persons in that company suspected of selling, or reselling at a huge profit, entry/exit documents.       


Cutting off the black hands of the snakeheads
In October 2000, the Public Security Department of Guangdong Province received information from the consulate of a certain European country in Guangzhou about personnel smuggling going on in this province. The competent office of the Department, in collaboration with the Public Security Bureau of Guangzhou, successfully cracked the serious criminal case of smuggling personnel out of the national border (frontier) committed by Guangzhou New Journey (Xinlucheng) Consultation Ltd.


Using a false business license, the criminal syndicate set up the Wuyang Branch of Guangzhou China Travel Service. They wangled European tourist visas by altering, tampering with and forging entry/exit documents and immigration seals. With these, they managed to smuggle altogether over 200 persons into Europe. In December, with the approval from the Guangzhou People’s Procuratorate, we arrested two persons involved in this case suspected of selling and reselling at a huge profit entry/exit documents.

    
Guangzhou Public Security Bureau cracked a case of reselling UK passport at a huge profit

 In mid-December, 2000, after receiving reports from the local residents, the Entry and Exit Administration under the Public Security Bureau of Guangzhou cracked a case of reselling UK passport at a huge profit. The offenders were Mai Guang, a British citizen, and Huang Weisi, a Guangzhou resident.

 

The two criminal suspects, pretending to help others to immigrate to UK, cheated a handsome sum of 300 thousand yuan out of a Mr Han from Henan Province. With approval from Guangzhou People’s Procuratorate, the two persons were arrested in accordance with law, and charged with the crime of selling and reselling at a huge profit entry/exit documents.

Guangdong police and Hong Kong police joined hands in cracking the 9.22 case 
After a fairly long period of careful investigation, Guangdong police, Hong Kong police and Hong Kong Immigration successfully cracked the 9.22 Case, referred to by the Hong Kong side as Coral Fish Case. The criminals in this case engaged in forging entry/exit documents, organizing personnel smuggling and transporting those to be smuggled out of the country or across the frontier. On September 22, 2001, the Guangdong police took action, raiding three document forging dens, arresting 6 suspects and confiscating a number of finished or unfinished forged entry/exit documents and a large quantity of computers, scanners, laminators, chemical reagents and other materials for use in document forgery.

 

Investigation into this case began in September 1999. Instructed by the Public Security Department of Guangdong province, Guangzhou Public Security Bureau looked into a serious case of forging entry/exit documents, organizing personnel smuggling and transporting those who were to steal across the national border or frontier, which was later named the 9.22 Case. They found that outlaws in Guangdong and Hong Kong ganged up in this criminal case.

 

In order to destroy this cross-border criminal syndicate, the law enforcing departments of the two sides worked closely together for two years and exchanged information timely. On December 22, 2001, over 70 policemen from Guangdong Public Security Department and Guangzhou Public Security Bureau took action. They arrested Huang (male, 43, Guangzhou resident, suspected of organizing personnel smuggling), Zhu (male, 43, Guangzhou resident, suspected of forging documents and supplying forged documents to people who wanted to steal across the national border (frontier), Cai (male, 41, Huizhou resident), He (male, 42, Hong Kong resident) and two others. Then they raided the three document forging dens owned by Zhu, Cai and He respectively, confiscating a number of fake Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Passports, a number of others being forged or to be forged, and fake passports of such countries and region as China, Japan, Korea, Portugal, and Taiwan, a number of fake Hong Kong and Macao ID cards and Mainland Travel Permits, moulds for use in document forgery, and a large quantity of other instruments, materials, and half-finished fake documents.

On September 23, Hong Kong police and Immigration Department took similar action. They arrested or detained 9 people involved in the case, raided 9 suspected dens, and confiscated a number of fake passports and tools for use in document forgery. The action in the two places has destroyed a large criminal syndicate engaging in organizing personnel smuggling and transporting people who try to steal out of the country or across the border.

It was discovered that Zhu and He, both of them criminal elements in Hong Kong, has been collaborating with Cai, a Guangdong resident, for a long time in forging Hong Kong passports and many other entry/exit documents, and selling these forged documents to Huang, a “snakehead” in Guangzhou, for use in organizing personnel smuggling and transporting personnel who want to steal out of the country or across the border. These 6 suspects have now been arrested and the procuratorate will prosecute them.

 

Cracking down on entry/exit-related crimes and maintaining good order in this area has always been the firm stand of the Chinese government. The cooperation between the police forces of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao dates back to many years ago. This is another successful action after the “Symbol” action in 1998, and a new heavy blow to the criminal acts of forging and selling forged entry/exit documents, organizing personnel smuggling and transporting people who try to illegally cross the national border (frontier). This action effectively maintains the normal order in entry/exit control.
