Net closes in on fugitive officials

The global arrest warrants issued by the China National Central Bureau of Interpol for the 100 most-wanted corrupt Chinese officials who have fled overseas shows the Chinese leadership's resolve to continue cracking down on corruption.

The red arrest warrants, which are Interpol's highest-level order for arrest, include a personal profile, ID number, date of birth and date of fleeing. They will help Interpol's 190 members work together to bring the fugitives to justice.

This is the first time the China National Central Bureau has made public such kind of arrest warrants for so many corrupt officials. The move not only highlights the Chinese government's efforts to catch suspects that have fled overseas, it also serves as warning to any corrupt officials who may be planning to flee abroad.
