BEIJING, Jan 29, (AFP) : China on Thursday executed 11 people linked to Myanmar criminal gangs, including “key members” involved in telecom scam operations, state media reported.<\/p>\n

Fraud compounds have flourished in Myanmar’s lawless borderlands, part of a multibillion-dollar illicit industry.<\/p>\n

The centres are typically staffed by foreigners — including many Chinese — with many saying they were trafficked and forced to swindle people online.<\/p>\n

Beijing has stepped up cooperation with Southeast Asian nations in recent years to crack down on the compounds, and thousands of people have been repatriated to China.<\/p>\n

The 11 people executed Thursday were sentenced to death in September by a court in the eastern Chinese city of Wenzhou, Xinhua said, adding that the court also carried out the executions.<\/p>\n

Crimes of the executed included “intentional homicide, intentional injury, unlawful detention, fraud and casino establishment”, the report said.<\/p>\n

The death sentences had been approved by the Supreme People’s Court in Beijing, which found that the evidence produced of crimes committed since 2015 was “conclusive and sufficient”, Xinhua said.<\/p>\n

Among the executed were members of the “Ming family criminal group”, whose activities had contributed to the deaths of 14 Chinese citizens and injuries to “many others”.<\/p>\n

“The criminals’ close relatives were allowed to meet with them before the execution,” Xinhua added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
