中国警方向韩国移交1名韩国籍红通逃犯

近日，中国警方向韩国警方移交了“江南学院路毒品饮料敲诈勒索案”韩国籍主犯李某某。

据韩国警方通报，2023年4月李某某（男，韩国籍，26岁）伙同他人将甲基苯丙胺（俗称“冰毒”）稀释注入饮料，谎称“可提高注意力”，诱骗10余名韩国在校中学生饮用，尔后以吸毒为由威胁敲诈学生家长。李某某因涉嫌向未成年人提供毒品、蓄意勒索罪等罪名被韩国警方通缉。韩国警方同时向国际刑警组织申请对李某某发布红色通报。

应韩国警方请求，中国公安部部署吉林省公安机关开展调查。在两国警方的密切配合下，吉林省公安机关将藏匿于中国的李某某抓获。中方在对李某某完成相应调查后，决定依法将其遣返出境并移交韩方。

近年来，中国警方高度重视打击毒品犯罪等跨国犯罪，特别是侵犯未成年人权益的犯罪，不断加强与国际刑警组织及各国警方合作。此次中韩警方密切合作，及时抓捕移交犯罪嫌疑人，充分彰显了两国警方共同打击跨国犯罪的信心和决心。同时，这也是双方深入务实合作，不断深化联合追逃行动的积极成果。（来源：环球时报）

Fugitive Involved in

Drug-Spiked Beverage Scam Transferred by Chinese Police to South Korea

Chinese police have recently transferred to the South Korean police a red notice South Korean fugitive who deceived young students into consuming drug-laced drinks in a high-profile drug scam case， China Central Television reported on Wednesday.

The South Korean police announced in April that the 26-year-old fugitive surnamed Lee， who was a lead suspect in the case， and other suspects injected methamphetamine into drinks and distributed the drug-spiked beverages to over 10 teenage students in Seoul's southern Gangnam Ward in April， falsely labeled as products intended to enhance memory and concentration.

Several parents of the students who received the drinks were later blackmailed with demands for money and threats to report their children to the police for drug charges.

Lee was put on the wanted list by the South Korean police for the charge of suspicion of providing drugs to minors and intentional extortion. Meanwhile， the South Korean police applied to the Interpol for a red notice against Lee.

At the request of the South Korean police， China's Ministry of Public Security deployed the public security department in Northeast China's Jilin Province to conduct an investigation.

With close cooperation between the law enforcement agencies of both countries， the Jilin police apprehended Lee who was hiding in China. After completing the relevant investigation on Lee， China decided to deport him and hand him over to the South Korean side in accordance with the laws.

In recent years， Chinese police have been attaching great importance to combating transnational crimes such as drug trafficking， especially those that infringe upon the rights of minors. They have continuously strengthened cooperation with Interpol and the law enforcement departments of various countries.

The close collaboration between the Chinese and South Korean police in this case， which resulted in a timely arrest and transfer of the criminal suspect， vividly demonstrates the confidence and determination of both countries' law enforcement departments in jointly combating transnational crimes. It is also a positive outcome of the deepening and pragmatic cooperation between the two sides who have been continually enhancing joint efforts in fugitive hunting operations.（Source：Global Times）
