In early 2020, changzhou Tianning police found that someone had peddled the country's precious and endangered wild animal, the blue gold parrot, through Baidu Tieba postings.
After the police initially expanded and grasped certain evidence, they quickly arrested the relevant suspects, and combed through the suspects' WeChat, Baidu Tieba and Douyin and other relevant information one by one, and expanded a well-organized criminal gang headed by "Hong Kong Yankees" and online network hooking, from Guangdong by air transport, passenger transport, etc., to sell the rare parrots that the state explicitly prohibited from selling to Jiangsu, Hubei, Liaoning and other places, and then the local downline is responsible for regional sales.
The Changzhou Tianning Public Security Bureau, with the strong support of the relevant police departments of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, quickly arrested the downline in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, arrested a total of 8 criminal suspects, and seized more than 20 parrots involved in the case.
Investigators also rushed to Zhongshan, Guangdong Province, to arrest and bring to justice the chief criminal, the "Hong Kong Yankees." After arriving at the case, the "Hong Kong Yankees" confessed that he illegally purchased parrots from the farm, sent them from Guangzhou Baiyun Airport through pet consignment, and airlifted them to Nanjing, Tianjin, Huludao and other places, where they were handed over to several downlines to be responsible for sales and profit from them. The police carried out arrest work against the source channels, transportation channels, distribution and offline links of the "HongYao", investigated and dealt with two parrot farms and a pet shipping company specializing in transportation in Xinhui, Guangdong and Tai'an, Shandong, and arrested all the off-line of the "Hong kong yankees" in Hebei, Liaoning and other places. The police arrested a total of 15 criminal suspects, and verified more than 50 parrots involved in the case, with a value of about 500,000 yuan. (CCTV reporter Wu Rui)
