The support and participation of the masses

Converge into a vast ocean of people's war

In February 2018, after the mobilization and deployment meeting of the province's special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, Benxi sounded the "charge" of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces for the first time with a high degree of political consciousness.

As soon as the order came out, it moved like a wind. The Benxi Municipal CPC Committee and the Benxi Municipal Government have quickly implemented the requirements of the provincial party committee and the provincial government for "five-level secretaries to grasp the work of sweeping away criminal syndicates and eliminating evil forces," implemented the "double group leader" system for the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor, strengthened the equal responsibility of the party and the government, and the double responsibility of one post, and comprehensively strengthened the organization, leadership, overall planning, and coordination of the special struggle.

The Benxi Municipal CPC Committee and the Benxi Municipal Government have elevated their political standing, strengthened their political responsibilities, always regarded the in-depth development of the special struggle against organized crime and evil as a major political task, formulated the "Implementation Plan for the Special Struggle to Eliminate Organized Crime and Evil Forces in Benxi City" in light of actual conditions, and strictly implemented the responsibility of the "first responsible person." Jiang Xiaolin, secretary of the municipal party committee, visited and investigated the political and legal organs on many occasions, visited and comforted the front-line political and legal cadres and policemen who were sweeping away the criminal syndicates and eliminating the evil forces; Mayor Tian Shuhuai listened to reports, gave instructions, and put forward requirements on many occasions.

In more than two years, Benxi City has organized and held 16 enlarged meetings of the leading group for combating organized crime and eliminating evil forces, more than 20 meetings of directors of the anti-crime office, and more than 40 meetings and work conferences, to conscientiously study and make comprehensive arrangements for the in-depth promotion of the city's special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, and to solidly promote the in-depth development of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces with a higher political position, strong determination, a resolute attitude, and effective measures.

"Are you not satisfied with the local social order?"

"Do you know the special struggle against organized crime and evil that is being carried out?"

"Is there a problem of involvement in criminal syndicates and evil around you?"

In August 2018, the Benxi Municipal Party Committee and the Benxi Municipal Government realized that relying on the masses is the source of strength in the special struggle, launched and carried out the "Party and Government Cadres Visit" activity, actively mobilized the masses to fight a people's war against organized crime and evil, and the municipal leaders took the lead and took the questionnaire and leaflet to the streets, communities, and shops to carry out visits, research, and publicity, and set an example for the city to carry out large-scale visits with practical actions.

This activity earnestly urged counties (districts) to grasp the responsibility measures, earnestly touched up the good experiences and practices and existing problems, effectively brought back valuable and important clues, and effectively mobilized the broad masses of the people at the grass-roots level, thus increasing the awareness rate and participation of the masses.

Workers from all counties (districts), townships (streets), and villages and communities in Benxi City also took swift action, going into villages and households in groups of 7 people, distributing more than 10,000 questionnaires and more than 10,000 copies of the understanding card, and mobilizing the masses to actively participate in the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces.

During the period when the Fifth Sinking Group of the Third Supervision Group of the Central Committee for Combating Organized Crime and Eliminating Evil Forces and the Supervision Group of the Provincial Party Committee supervised the work of sweeping away organized crime and eliminating evil forces in Benxi, they all gave full affirmation and praise to the activity of "party and government cadres visiting" activities.

From strengthening organizational leadership to implementing responsibilities at all levels, from the stubbornness of municipal leaders to the spontaneous participation of the masses, behind the intense and vigorous action is the firm determination of the whole city to win the hard battle of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, thus quickly setting off a powerful offensive in benxi's special struggle against organized crime and evil forces.

Forge ahead

Work together

Return the people to fairness and justice

Also the confidence of the society with the rule of law

This contest between good and evil

It is the power of the whole city

A strong attack to integrate the strength of multiple departments

Since the launch of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, under the strong leadership and correct command of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, the Benxi Municipal Anti-Organized Crime Office has given full play to its role in taking the lead in grasping the overall situation, overall planning and coordination, and supervising and implementing the work, strengthening information synthesis, research and dispatch, guidance and coordination, supervision and supervision, and establishing a linkage mechanism, dispatch mechanism, consultation mechanism, and supervision mechanism for the work of eliminating organized crime and evil forces. Xu Sheng, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal PARTY Committee and secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee, has organized meetings on many occasions to promote the unification of thinking, the unity of pace, and the resolute action of all counties (districts) and departments, forming a strong joint force that fulfills their responsibilities and grasps and manages together.

In order to strictly verify clues, Benxi City has established working mechanisms such as clue transfer, clue investigation, review and evaluation, etc., carried out all-round and dragnet-style centralized investigation and review of clues, issued a notice of time limit for investigation and conclusion, and effectively achieved one case, one judgment and one rectification, and realized the "clearance of key clues to the bottom".

The municipal and legal organs have played the role of the main force in the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, faithfully performing their duties; all political and legal departments have established a mechanism for linking cases involving criminal syndicates and evil forces, further unified case-handling ideology and law enforcement standards, and continuously improved the quality and effectiveness of case handling through early intervention and investigation, arrest, prosecution, and judgment in parallel, not only to crack down all kinds of criminal syndicates and evil forces in a steady and accurate manner, but also to ensure that every case can withstand the test of history and law. Up to now, all cases related to organized crime investigated by public security organs have been convicted and sentenced as organized crimes of a triad nature.

Public security organs have taken the lead in setting up "one team, two rooms, and three centers" in the province, comprehensively strengthening communication and guidance from the top to the bottom, and ensuring that the masses report, lead verification, and case investigation form a closed loop. Through the system of "replies to letters from the masses," procuratorial organs have ensured the implementation of reporting leads, and have implemented a mechanism for combining the arrest and prosecution of cases involving criminal syndicates and evil forces, intervening in advance in each case involving criminal syndicates and evil forces, issuing a call not to miss the fighter plane in the procuratorial organs, and in principle not withdrawing from investigation or supplementing evidence in the procuratorial link. Adjudication organs increase their case-handling strength, and through convening pretrial conferences, promote trials to highlight key points and continue trials, ensuring that cases involving criminal syndicates and evil forces are handled quickly, prosecuted quickly, and adjudicated quickly.

While maintaining a high-pressure crackdown on the crimes of criminal and evil forces, Benxi City has always focused on the areas and fields where the people have strong reactions, and highlighted its responsibilities with one hard measure after another.

Launch the first shot of the province's crackdown on "routine loans"

In May 2019, Benxi City fired the first shot in the province to crack down on the illegal crime of "routine loans". Subsequently, the Benxi public security carried out the first case filing and investigation of the case clues determined by investigation by insisting on opening up the road and taking the initiative to attack, persisted in handling special cases, concentrated on tackling tough problems, and investigated and closed the case within a limited time, cracked down on gangs and dens to the greatest extent possible, and smashed a total of 10 cases involving criminal syndicates and evil forces that carried out fraud and crimes in the form of "routine loans", and the results of the crackdown were at the forefront of the province. On July 10, 2019, the province's public security organs' special struggle against organized crime and vice and the work conference on cracking down on "routine loans" were held in Benxi, at which the work experience of Benxi public security in cracking down on "routine loans" crimes was promoted throughout the province.

"Curing chaos" will never be soft and "clean source" will never stop

At the same time as accurately cracking down in accordance with the law, in April 2019, the Benxi Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government launched a special rectification action of "eliminating hidden dangers, preventing risks, and purifying the environment", and all departments gave full play to their functions and roles, aimed at the hot issues that the people strongly reacted to, focused on the control of chaos, closely focused on the chaos in the industry, strengthened the frequency of law enforcement, increased the intensity of rectification, and promoted the control of chaos to achieve good results.

The public security organs have made efforts to crack 84 criminal cases involving enterprises in response to the chaos of public security around the steel enterprises, and purified the production and operation environment of the steel group. The Benxi Municipal Transportation Bureau has increased joint law enforcement efforts and carried out joint law enforcement activities in response to problems such as "black leasing". The Benxi Municipal Water Affairs Bureau carried out rectification actions such as illegal sand mining in the river, and jointly with the public security organs to file and investigate a number of criminal cases of illegal sand mining. The Benxi Forestry and Grassland Bureau has clearly defined forced forest land trading as the key areas and key areas for special rectification, and cracked cases involving evil gangs and a number of criminal cases involving forests.

In order to further give play to the role of the "three books and one letter" in the "industry source" and promote the implementation of the industry supervision responsibility, the Benxi Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission Supervision Commission has formulated the "Implementation Measures for the Work of strengthening and standardizing the Suggestions of the Benxi Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission supervision Commission (Trial)", which truly promotes reform by case, education by case, and construction by case, plugs management loopholes, and effectively helps the industry to "clean up the source".

Build a solid grassroots battle fortress to sweep away criminal syndicates and eliminate evil

In terms of strengthening the construction of grass-roots organizations, Benxi City has comprehensively improved the overall level of rural party building, done a good job in the project of strengthening the foundation of rural party building, and continued to rectify weak and scattered village party organizations. Through the action of "entering the countryside, strengthening party building, and promoting revitalization", 323 party members and cadres in the city docked with 36 townships, towns, agriculture-related streets and 287 villages, re-checked and cleaned up the members of the "two committees" of the village, and combined with the "return to the goose action", selected a number of outstanding village party branch secretaries, and fundamentally solved the actual problems of weak and scattered villages. Through consolidating the foundation, precise force and symptomatic treatment, the "immunity" of grass-roots party organizations to criminal and evil forces has been continuously enhanced.

"Breaking the umbrella and breaking the net" realizes self-purification in the spirit of self-revolution

The organs of the Benxi Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision have strictly implemented the "one case, three investigations" and "two uniforms," constantly perfected and perfected the system and mechanism, innovated work methods and methods, overcome difficulties, and made precise efforts to combine the "umbrella and break the net" of sweeping away criminal syndicates and eliminating evil forces with the grass-roots anti-corruption "swatting flies" and investigating and dealing with corruption problems in the field of poverty alleviation, and deeply dug into the "relationship network" and "protective umbrella" behind the criminal syndicates and evil forces. In order to deepen the battle to "break through major and important cases," we should pay close attention to the "central supervisors" and "ministry supervisors" and the cases involving criminal syndicates and evil forces listed and supervised by the provincial anti-gang crime office and the public security department, follow up on each case in a timely manner, cross-check each other, promote and re-investigate, and organize special classes to dig deep into the "protective umbrella." The "umbrella" rate of cases involving organized crime and evil (groups) has reached 100%, and the effectiveness of cracking down on corruption and "protective umbrellas" ranks among the top in the province.

The "Hundred Days' Battle" continued to expand its achievements

From October 2019 to January this year, in the "100-day Battle" of the province's concentrated special struggle to eliminate organized crime and eliminate evil forces, Benxi City continued to exert efforts in the verification of clues, the detection of major and important cases, "cracking down on money and blood", "breaking umbrellas and breaking the net", cracking down on "routine loans", consolidating the foundation and strengthening the foundation, industry chaos, propaganda and launching, rectification of problems, long-term and permanent governance mechanisms and self-construction, promoting the verification of clues and the investigation and prosecution of criminal and evil cases, and continuously expanding the results of the battle.

Overcome the difficulties

Long-acting normal

Never let the evil forces

There is a resurgence and a comeback

Hang high the sword of the rule of law and eradicate the criminal and evil forces. For more than two years, the Benxi Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government have implemented the deployment with actions, set off a powerful storm to destroy the criminal and evil forces with a thunderous momentum, and responded to the expectations of the people with the results of the battle.

On 19 May this year, at a press conference on cases listed for supervision by the National Anti-Organized Crime Office, the Case of the Dandong "4.22" Song Mou Mafia-type Organization that was investigated, prosecuted, and tried by the Benxi Political and Legal Organs was announced, which was one of the first 22 major triad-related cases listed and supervised by the National Anti-Organized Crime Office, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Supreme People's Procuratorate since the Party Central Committee deployed the special struggle to eliminate organized crime and eliminate evil forces. The facts of the case are major and complex, the time span of illegal crimes spans nearly 30 years, and there are 51 defendants involved in the case, 17 crimes, and 375 illegal and criminal facts.

In 2018, the special struggle against organized crime and evil has just been launched, and the Political and Legal Committee of the Benxi Municipal Party Committee and the public procuratorial and legal organs have raised their positions, made careful arrangements, and fought as sharply as possible. The public security organs innovated investigation methods to ensure that the "ice-breaking operation" won the first battle and fired the first shot of the province's anti-gang crime eradication. Many cadres and policemen took the initiative to ask for help and fought day and night, and the front-line case-handling personnel of public security, procuratorates, and courts all showed firm revolutionary will, selfless dedication, and excellent case-handling skills.

The Central Anti-Mafia And Anti-Evil Supervision Group evaluated the "4.22" project: The volume of the case, the length of the time span, the high level of "breaking the umbrella and breaking the net," and the amount of funds for "cracking down on wealth and cutting off blood" are the highest in the country.

Hard battles were fought one after another, and under the fierce offensive, the city's special struggle against organized crime and evil forces was frequently reported. The results of the stage have allowed the masses to see benxi's determination and ability to crack down on criminal syndicates and evil forces. Since 2018, a total of 11 mafia-type organizations, 8 criminal groups of evil forces, and 14 criminal gangs of evil forces have been destroyed; 133 cases of "protective umbrella" cases involving mafia-related and vicious corruption have been filed and handled, and 193 people have been handled, including 108 people punished by party discipline and government affairs, 85 people have been organized and handled, and 30 people have been transferred to judicial organs.

This year is the year of the realization of the three-year goal of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, the year of decisive victory, and the year of comprehensive inspection; the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces in Benxi City is constantly advancing in an orderly manner, and will promote the formation of a work pattern of close coordination and joint management through tightening the chain of responsibility system and transmitting responsibility pressure at all levels.

On August 12 this year, Benxi City fully mobilized and deployed to launch the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, and promoted the comprehensive victory of the special struggle in the closing year.

postscript

"In the past, in the face of these criminal and evil forces, we could only swallow our anger and swallow our voices, and it was more than 10 years to endure them, but now, it is the special struggle to eliminate organized crime and evil forces that has returned us peace, given us peace, and made us stand up!" When Yang Mou's mafia-type organization, which had been entrenched in Tianshifu Town, Benxi Manchu Autonomous County for more than 10 years, was destroyed, the villagers said with tears.

Purify the evil

Only the sword hangs high

Strike with an iron fist

Only in this way can we keep the people safe

For more than two years, the whole city of Benxi has been working together with one heart and one mind, forging ahead, and fighting with determination and tenacity to grasp the iron marks and leave a mark on the stepping stones, and we have reason to believe that Benxi will certainly be able to win the battle of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces.
