BEIJING, Feb. 26 (Xinhua) — Chinese courts have completed trials of two major criminal groups based in northern Myanmar and involved in telecommunications and internet fraud, the Supreme People's Court said Thursday.

As announced at a press conference organized by the Supreme Court, by the end of 2025, courts across China had heard more than 27,000 cases related to fraud in northern Myanmar at first instance, and more than 41,000 repatriated suspects had been convicted.

Trials against two of the four largest criminal groups—the Min and Bai families—have been fully completed. A total of 39 people were sentenced to life imprisonment or harsher punishments, including 16 death sentences. Both cross-border armed crime groups have thus been completely dismantled, dealing a serious blow to the criminal underworld both domestically and internationally.
