Police Intensify Crackdown on International Crimes Including Immigration Offenders and Criminal Organization Formation
[Asia Economy Reporter Seongpil Cho] The National Police Agency's National Investigation Headquarters announced on the 30th that it will intensively crack down on international crime offenders for three months from May 1 to June 30.
The key crackdown areas include ▲ specialized international crimes such as immigration offenses and illegal foreign exchange transactions ▲ general foreigner crimes such as robbery, violence, investment fraud, and gambling ▲ organized crimes such as the formation and activities of criminal organizations. In particular, they plan to strengthen crackdowns on specialized illegal areas related to foreigners, such as immigration offenses that threaten national security and smuggling and illegal export crimes that adversely affect the distribution and trade of goods.
Considering that recent foreigner crimes have frequently involved power and group disputes while operating illegal businesses such as drug distribution and gambling establishments, the police also plan to respond strongly to organized crimes such as group assaults. If foreigner group crimes occur during the intensive crackdown period, a special investigation team will be formed to respond by applying charges related to the formation and activities of criminal organizations.
