China's ”Secret Police Stations" have attracted attention

After it was revealed that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-aligned groups concentrated in Italy had ties to Chinese mafia gangs, observers called on the international community to pay attention to China's "110 Foreign service" centers.

According to Voice of America (VOA), as the Italian government reaches a critical decision point regarding whether to withdraw from China's so-called "Belt and Road" trade initiative, it is emphasized that China's alleged "110 foreign services" centers continue to spread every day.

Although an investigation has been launched for over a year to uncover China's so-called "Secret police stations," no official statements regarding the results have been made by countries yet, and these secret police stations of China continue to proliferate under different names.

According to the information, Italian authorities state that the Chinese groups under investigation, accused of having connections with mafia gangs in the country, are affiliated with the CCP-controlled "110 Foreign Services" centers, which are claimed to be funded by Beijing and operated by dark forces.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgio Meloni, during his visit to the United States at the end of last month, met with American President Joe Biden. Both sides agreed to strengthen cooperation against Beijing, while Meloni stated that China would decide whether to withdraw from the "Belt and Road" initiative and that they had until December to make that decision.

Meanwhile, relevant reports in Chinese media are claiming that Italy is being controlled by the United States and engaging in smear propaganda.

102 STATIONS DETECTED ON 5 CONTINENTS

The report titled "Patrol and Persuasion" published by the Spain-based non-governmental organization Safeguard Defenders on September 15 revealed that China has at least 54 illegal and secret police stations in 34 countries on 5 continents, especially in European countries.

"On November 7th of last year, "The Guardian" reported that 14 countries' governments, including Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, had launched investigations to expose China's illegal overseas networks. In addition to the 54 Chinese "secret police stations," it was reported that 48 more stations were operated, bringing the total to 102 in 53 countries.

Many of these countries had urged China to close the so-called "foreign police stations," stating that foreigners cannot engage in illegal activities on their soil and that foreign representatives must adhere to local and international laws."
