In mid-April 2019, the Public Security Bureau of Xinhuang Dong Autonomous County in Huaihua City, Hunan Province, seized Du's criminal gang involved in criminal syndicates and evil in the special struggle against organized crime and evil. According to Du's account, he killed Deng Mou, a teacher at XinhuangYi Middle School, in January 2003 and buried his body in the playground. On June 20, public security departments exhumed a corpse inside the school's playground. At present, the investigation of the case is under way.
This is a frightening case that can become a lingering nightmare in many people's hearts. This case once again proves from one side the necessity and urgency of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces.
In January 2018, the central government issued a notice to launch a special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, which demonstrated the strategic plan of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core for governing the country and ensuring national security, and was full of deep concern for the well-being of the people. However, the vast majority of people can understand the far-reaching significance of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces in social governance; however, a very small number of people have doubts: Is it necessary to sweep away the criminal syndicates and evil forces with such fanfare?
The series of achievements in the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces are vivid examples. Under the gratifying situation in which new progress has been continuously made in the "five-in-one" and "four comprehensives," the criminal and evil forces in some localities have been entrenched in and harmed one side for a long time, which has seriously affected the people's sense of security and happiness, seriously undermined the building of grass-roots political power, and seriously hindered the construction of a rule-of-law China and the building of a peaceful China. The series of achievements in the special struggle to eliminate organized crime and eliminate evil forces have precisely proved that the special struggle to eliminate organized crime and evil forces "has a bearing on the stability of the overall social situation and the long-term peace and stability of the country, on the will of the people and on the consolidation of political power at the grass-roots level, and on the waging of great struggles, the construction of great projects, the advancement of great causes, and the realization of great dreams, and must be unswervingly carried out to the end."
What should be seriously pointed out is that the Hunan playground corpse hiding case and the Previously exposed Case of Sun Xiaoguo in Yunnan once again show that behind every criminal and evil force there must be a "protective umbrella" and a network of relations, and the sweeping away of criminal syndicates and evil forces must be closely integrated with "breaking the umbrella and breaking the net" and must be closely integrated with anti-corruption and grass-roots "swatting flies."
Strictly investigating the "protective umbrella" behind the criminal syndicates and evil forces is the main content of the central supervision of the anti-crime and anti-evil forces, and it shows the determination of the central authorities to sweep away the criminal syndicates and eliminate the evil forces, which is highly consistent with the voice of the masses of the people. Only by pulling out the "protective umbrella" behind each criminal and evil force can we truly destroy the criminal and evil forces and truly give an explanation to the party and the people.
At present, the three-year special struggle to eliminate organized crime and evil forces has entered the "second half", from the Sun Xiaoguo case in Yunnan to the Lin Mingxue case in Hubei province to the case of hiding corpses in playgrounds in Hunan; with the continuous deepening of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, along with the investigation and handling of a series of major cases involving criminal syndicates and evil forces, the participation of the masses of the people has become higher and higher, and the degree of recognition has become stronger and stronger, and the special struggle to eliminate organized crime and evil forces is winning the trust and support of the masses of the people with tangible achievements. This kind of trust and support will certainly become the basis of public opinion to promote the in-depth development of the special struggle against organized crime and evil forces, and will continue to be transformed into an increasingly powerful spiritual force.
