Top cop rains down on gangs
The country's top police officer is calling for a crackdown on mafia and organized crime ahead of the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Meng Jianzhu, state councilor and public security minister, is urging police authorities to monitor the movements of gangs and criminal organizations. He revealed the new security operation in a teleconference on Tuesday.
"The illegal activities of gangster groups have been quite active during the country's economic and social transformation," said Meng. "Police forces should cut off ties between gangsters and economic operations and prevent them from infiltrating the political sector."
