Directive issued to curb oil, gas theft
Print Edition
A DIRECTIVE has been issued to crack down on the theft of oil and gas and sabotaging facilities, a source with the Supreme People鈥檚 Court said yesterday.
The document, jointly issued by the SPC, the Supreme People鈥檚 Procuratorate and the Ministry of Public Security, aims to clarify the application of criminal law to such offenses.
Those who cut open, smash or dismantle oil and gas pipes, or drill holes into them with the intention of stealing oil and gas, will be considered compromising public security.
Those who enable or encourage others to commit these offenses will also be considered prime culprits, while low-ranking employees of oil and gas firms who help criminals approach such facilities will be deemed accomplices.
The public security ministry said in a statement in July that oil and gas thieves were mostly subject to administrative fines rather than criminal penalties, which served little deterrence.
An increasing number of oil and gas thefts have been committed by cross-regional, well-organized underground syndicates, the ministry said.
