Notice on the reward for reporting anti-smuggling clues. On the way to smuggling, treading on thin ice

But there are still people who take risks and steal across the country (border)

The act of sneaking across the country (border) hinders the social management order.

Violate the law

It may even be punished by punishment.

Let’s look at a case.

In February 2020, at the invitation of others, in order to make money by gambling abroad, the defendants Wen, Zhang, Yu and Liu sneaked into Myanmar from Yunnan under the arrangement of others. In March of the same year, four people sneaked back to China across the railing from the China-Myanmar border, and were seized by the police station after crossing the border.

The court held that the defendants Wen Mou, Zhang Mou, Yu Mou and Liu Mou violated the laws and regulations on border control and, without going through legal entry and exit procedures, ganged up to engage in gambling activities across the country (border). The circumstances were serious and their actions constituted the crime of stealing across the country (border). In addition, four people colluded to cross the country (border) during a major epidemic in COVID-19, which hindered the control of the epidemic and was given a heavier punishment as appropriate. Although the four people voluntarily surrendered themselves, they did not truthfully confess the facts of the crime, and they were able to truthfully confess the facts of the crime in the supplementary investigation stage. They were all frank and could be given a lighter punishment. Four people voluntarily pleaded guilty and pleaded guilty. The court sentenced the defendant Wen to six months in prison and fined him 5,000 yuan. The defendants Zhang, Yu and Liu were sentenced to five months in prison and fined 4,000 yuan.
