【新唐人2014年12月06日訊】自中共軍中「大老虎」徐才厚落馬後,外界對接下來將要被打的「老虎」正翹首以待,不料中共忽然轉換風向,宣佈開始打「狐狸」,追捕逃往海外的貪官。同時各大官媒開足馬力進行高調報導。究竟這次「獵狐」成果如何?請看下面報導。
今年7月22號,中共公安部宣佈啟動「獵狐2014」專項行動,追捕逃往海外的經濟犯罪嫌疑人。隨後,公安部、外交部等四個部門又聯合發佈通告稱:只要在12月1號前投案自首,就可以減輕處罰。然而,直到通牒的最後期限,肯自首的貪官卻寥寥無幾。
據公安部網站12月4號報導,截至目前,「獵狐」行動已經從60個國家和地區,抓獲外逃經濟犯罪人員428名,其中231名為主動投案自首,佔全部緝捕人數的54%。
對此,中共各大官媒和門戶網站進行了高調、大篇幅的報導,稱讚「獵狐」行動「碩果累累」。但與此相反的是,民間的反應卻非常冷淡,很多網站參與評論的網民不足百人。
時政評論家《中國事務》主編伍凡:「究竟為甚麼要發動這麼一個『獵狐』運動,來給『反腐』錦上添花?還是給它『化妝』?總的來講,這個『反腐』往下走,沒有新的內容。儘管有的人,今天放一個消息,明天又放一個獨家消息,把那些小故事擴大,看的人都懶得看了。」
那麼究竟公安部這次發動的「獵狐」行動,成果如何呢?從官方公布的緝捕人數來看,400多人的確不少,但是與大陸外逃官員的總數相比,則少的可憐。
目前中國到底有多少貪官外逃?官方還沒有確切的數據披露。但外界廣泛流傳,中國社會科學院2011年的調研報告顯示,從上世紀九十年代以來,中國大陸包括裸官在內的各種貪官外逃人數多達1萬8千人,攜帶資金8000多億人民幣。
但也有分析指出,近年來大陸貪官外逃的人數、級別、手段都在不斷攀升,實際外逃人數應該遠遠高於社科院的調查數據。
即使按照1萬8千人的外逃官員數字來看,公安部在耗時4個月,耗費大量財力、物力、人力盡出的情況下,僅僅抓捕歸案400多人,比例僅有2%,其中還有過半被宣揚為是被警方運用親情勸返自首的,「獵狐」成果不言而喻。
此外,有報導指出,在已經抓獲的外逃貪官中,中共當局真正想要抓捕的幾名「頭號通緝目標」卻不在其中。例如至今潛逃12年未歸的原中共國家電力公司黨組書記、原雲南省委書記高嚴,以及斂財數十億美元的周永康的妻妹賈曉霞等。對此,有港媒指出,無論是打「老虎」還是打「狐狸」,當局都是有選擇性的。
中國問題獨立評論員李善鑒:「很可能那些人本身在國內他聯繫的、他的上級下級啊,他的一些朋友,他的關係網啊,就是抓人的這批人它(中共當局)沒有辦法讓這些腐敗的官員自己來抓自己,可是它又要做這個樣子,還要不斷的抓一些大大小小——其實多半是一些小官來造聲勢,來籠絡民心。現在所謂的海外的『獵狐』行動的話,其實也就表現在這。」
還有網民注意到,在中共官媒關於「獵狐」行動的報導中,只是強調「狐狸」的人數,但對於追繳的資金卻隻字不提。
一位網路作家在接受《自由亞洲電臺》採訪時透露,中共當局為了面子,只要能抓回逃官,寧可給引渡國最高百分之八十的贓款。報導還稱,從海外直接抓捕一個逃犯,中共要花費最少20萬元人民幣。以此計算,「獵狐」行動直接抓獲的197人,耗資大約3940萬元。

Spending Millions on "Fox Hunt", Only Few Corrupted Officials Arrested
Since the downfall of China's "big military tiger" Xu Caihou, the outside world awaits the next "tiger" to be hunted down. However, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) suddenly converted its direction into hunting the "fox", which is tracking down those corrupted officials who escaped abroad. At the same time, all major official media are giving high-profile reports at full capacity. So what are the outcomes of this "fox hunt"? Here is the report.
On Jul. 22, the CCP Ministry of Public Security announced the launch of "Operation Fox Hunt 2014", aimed at tracking down the runaway economic fugitives. Afterwards, the Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and two other departments have jointly issued a circular that people who turn themselves in before 1 Dec., will have a mitigated punishment. However, up until the end of the ultimatum, very few corrupted officials have turned themselves in.
The website of Ministry of Public Security reported on Dec. 4that, up to now, the "fox hunt" operation has 428 runaway economic fugitives from sixty countries and regions, of which 231 fugitives had given themselves up.This accounts for 54% of the total number being arrested.
In this regard, the CCP official media and major portals gave high-profile reports, praising the "fox hunt" as "fruitful". But on the contrary the civil response is indifferent, many websites had less than one hundred people commenting.
Current affairs commentator, chief editor of "China Affairs", Wu Fan: "Why did they launch this 'fox hunt' operation? To make the 'anti-corruption' even better? Or give it a 'make-over'? General speaking, this 'anti-corruption' is going down, there is no new content. Although news and exclusive news were released everyday to expand those little stories, but people are tired of reading them."
So what are the outcomes of this "fox hunt" operation launched by the Ministry of Public Security? From the official announcements, more than 400 people have been arrested, that number may look great, but in fact it is a pitiful amount compared to the total number of runaway mainland officials.
What is the total number of China's runaway corrupted officials? There are no exact official data. However, it is widespread that the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences' (CASS) research report in 2011 has shown, since the nineties, all kinds of corrupted officials who fled abroad totaled at least 18,000.They took more than 800 billion yuan ($US 130 billion) out of the country.
However, some analysis points out that the number of runaway corrupted officials has been rising in recent years, as well as their official level and means, the actual number should be much higher than the CASS research data.
Even using the figure of 18,000, the Ministry of Public Security took four months, spend a lot of money, material and manpower, to only arrest more than 400 people, this only accounts for 2%.Of which more than half were being aired as police using kinship to persuade them to turn themselves in. The "Fox hunt" operation's outcomes are self-evident.
In addition, there are reports that, several CCP's "most wanted targets" were not among the arrested runaway corrupted officials. For example, Ji Gaoyan, former Party secretary of the CCP National Power Corporation, and former secretary of Yunnan Provincial Party Committee, and Jia Xiaoxia, Zhou Yongkang'swife's younger sister who corrupted billions of dollars. In this regard, Hong Kong media pointed out, the "tiger hunt" and "fox hunt" are all selective.
China affairs commentator, Li Shanjian: "Those people have a network of relationships in China, superiors and subordinates, some friends, people they have contacted…may have participated in the operation. So it (CCP) cannot make those corrupted officials catch themselves, but it needs to look like it is doing it.It has to constantly arrest some big and small officials, the arrests of small officials is used to create momentum, and win over the people. The current so-called 'fox hunt' operation just reflects this."
Some netizens realized, all CCP media only highlighted the number of "foxes" arrested in their reports, and did not mention any thing about the recovery of funds.
In an interview with Radio Free Asia, a web author disclosed that the CCP would willing give the country harbouring the official at most 80% of illicit money as long as it can arrest the corrupt official and build its reputation. The reports also stated, the CCP would spend a minimum of200,000 yuan ($US 33,000) to arrest one overseas fugitive. By this calculation, this "fox hunt" operation has directly arrested 197 people, cost about39.4 million yuan ($US 6.4 million).
