, the coastal defense detachment of Wenzhou Public Security Bureau and Cangnan County Public Security Bureau jointly launched the second sea sand project centralized and unified network collection operation, successfully destroying a long-term illegal sea sand mining criminal gang specializing in the complete chain of "mining, barging, transporting, unloading and marketing" in Zhejiang and Fujian sea areas. So far, the "4.15" illegal mining case has been successfully solved. In April
2022, the coastal defense detachment of Wenzhou Public Security Bureau found a clue of illegal sea sand mining in its work, which involved complex links, numerous vessels and personnel, and huge amounts of sea sand and funds. In response, the coastal defense detachment immediately joined the Cangnan County Public Security Bureau to set up a special class to conduct in-depth research and judgment on the clues, dig deep and expand the line, and the case was listed as a supervisory case by the Ministry of Public Security.
After investigation, since 2020, illegal sea sand mining gangs headed by Zheng Mou, Lin Mou and Liu Mou have purchased several vessels converted into sand suction vessels, illegally exploited sea sand in the sea area of Minjiang Estuary in Fujian Province, and transported it to Cangnan, Longgang and Pingyang for sale, involving more than 600000 tons of sea sand. The value of the case amounted to more than 20 million yuan. From March 28 to April 5,
2023, the special class organized more than 150 capable police forces to go to Fujian, Hainan, Ningbo, Taizhou, Cangnan, Longgang, Pingyang and other places to carry out centralized and unified network collection operations, and successfully captured the main gang members Lin Mou and others. Up to now, 81 people have taken criminal compulsory measures in this case, seized five kiloton ships and more than 31000 tons of sea sand, seized one vehicle and frozen more than 1 million yuan of funds involved.
In recent years, the Coastal Defense Detachment has joined forces with the Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Areas, Wenzhou Maritime Bureau, Wenzhou Maritime Police Bureau and other units to carry out joint law enforcement at sea, safety regulation of sand and gravel vessels in the waters of Zhejiang-Fujian junction, and special actions to crack down on non-violations of water traffic safety, and has always maintained a high-pressure crackdown on illegal mining (sand) crimes, and achieved remarkable results. Since
last year, 924 illegal sea sand vessels have been jointly investigated and punished, 760 have been punished, more than 420 people have been cracked down on 150 cases involving sea sand, more than 300000 tons of sea sand have been seized, and many criminal gangs engaged in illegal sea sand mining for a long time have been eliminated. It has basically achieved the goal of significantly reducing the number of ships illegally mining and transporting sea sand and the number of accidents involving sea sand safety production, effectively protecting marine ecological resources and effectively maintaining the safety and stability of the coastal areas of our city.
