Chinese authorities announced the successful extradition of fugitive She Zhijiang from Thailand on November 13, 2025, marking a milestone in transnational law enforcement cooperation. The key suspect in a sprawling cross-border gambling and telecom fraud operation now faces justice in China after a multi-year international pursuit.
China's Ministry of Public Security revealed that She's criminal network, operating through his Asia-Pacific International Holdings Group, established over 200 online gambling platforms since 2013. The operation expanded dramatically in 2017 with the creation of fraud centers in Myanmar's Kayin State, ultimately defrauding more than 330,000 Chinese citizens of 2.7 billion yuan ($370 million).
"This extradition demonstrates our unwavering commitment to protecting citizens' rights through international collaboration," stated an MPS spokesperson. The case required three years of coordinated efforts between Chinese and Thai authorities, overcoming legal challenges posed by She's appeals in Thailand's court system.
Authorities emphasize that this operation aligns with China's Global Security Initiative, which has facilitated the arrest of 4,812 telecom fraud suspects across Asia this year alone. The spokesperson confirmed plans to establish an International Alliance Against Telecommunications Fraud, enhancing real-time intelligence sharing between nations.
