The Vietnamese police transferred a Chinese suspect to their Chinese counterpart here on Tuesday at the Noi Bai International Airport.

This is the first important achievement of the Joint Operation Two on Capturing Escaped Suspects between China and Vietnam's public security ministries.

The male suspect whose surname is Zhou was born in December 1969 in Wenzhou, Zhejiang province of China.

Zhou is wanted by the Chinese police for suspicion of opening casino.

In 2011, Zhou, together with other people, set up an online gambling site, involving capital of 400 billion Chinese yuan (nearly 61.8 billion U.S. dollars), with profit of 580 million Chinese yuan (89.6 million U.S. dollars).

Zhou later fled abroad. in 2014, the International Criminal Police Organization issued red notice against Zhou.

In 2015, Chinese Ministry of Public Security sent request to the Vietnamese side over the arrest of Zhou.

Under the coordination between Vietnamese police and the liaison office of Chinese police in Vietnam, Hanoi Police Department successfully arrested Zhou at a restaurant in Hanoi in March 2016.

During the Joint Operation One on Capturing Escaped Suspects between China and Vietnam from November 2014 to July 2015, the two sides arrested 47 escaped suspects.

"Arresting escaped suspects is a cooperation area between the two sides. I believe that with the efforts of both sides' police forces, this year, the results of the cooperation is expected to be better than last year," Zhao Wanpeng, Chinese Police Counselor in Vietnam, told Xinhua.
