According to China Securities Journal and China Securities Network, Wang Bin, head of the Criminal Third Division of the Supreme People's Court, stated at a press conference on February 26 that the next step for the courts will be to focus on cracking down on key figures in online fraud groups, core members, "money sponsors," "snakeheads," individuals involved in violent crimes, as well as related crimes such as "money laundering" using virtual currencies and underground banks; at the same time, the courts will依法 increase the application of property penalties, taking the return of stolen goods and compensation as important considerations for confessions, remorse, and lenient sentencing, and will依法 impose strict punishments on those who have the ability but refuse to return stolen goods and compensation.
