Xinhua News, 2009-06-30
In preparation for the 60th Anniversary of the PRC's founding on 1 October, the Beijing Public Security Bureau announced the beginning of an anti-crime operation dubbed “thunder” to “strike hard all kinds of criminal offenses according to law.” The operation seeks to maintain a level of public security equal to that of last year's Olympic Games. In the first half of 2009, Beijing police have reportedly solved 90.05% of all murder cases and 100% of all kidnappings. Compared to the same period last year, the overall rate of criminal incidences in Beijing is down 2.8% and the incidence rate of the eight most “dangerous and serious crimes”—including murder, kidnapping, rape and robbery—is down 19.8%.
