Getting Fugitives Back to China 'Requires Better Evidence-Collecting Skills'

(Beijing) – China is taking its fight against corruption beyond its borders in a bid to make more of its fugitives answer for their crimes, but a professor of international criminal law says these efforts will test its ability to collect evidence and coordinate different departments.

The Ministry of Public Security announced a campaign in July that it dubbed Fox Hunt 2014, which is aimed at catching people suspected of committing economic crimes. In January, the ministry said the six-month campaign netted 680 criminals from 69 countries.
