China Executes 11 Family Members Linked to Myanmar Crime Networks

Reports indicate that China has executed 11 members of a family accused of running organized crime operations in neighboring Myanmar.

International media reported that the Chinese government has executed 11 members of a single family accused of operating mafia-style criminal centers in Myanmar.

The BBC World Service reported the executions on Thursday, January 29, citing Chinese authorities, though no further official details were released.

Authorities have not disclosed information about the timing, location, or legal proceedings surrounding the executions.

The case is linked to transnational criminal activities, including fraud and violent crimes allegedly carried out across the China–Myanmar border.

The executions mark one of the most severe recent actions by China against cross-border organized crime networks.

In 2025, the BBC reported that a total of 21 members and associates of the so-called “Bai” family had been sentenced to death on charges including fraud, murder, causing serious injury, and other crimes.

China has intensified efforts in recent years to crack down on organized crime and online fraud operations operating in parts of Myanmar and Southeast Asia, often involving Chinese nationals.

The latest executions underline Beijing’s hardline approach to transnational crime, even as details of the case remain limited and closely controlled by authorities.
