Terrorist crackdown focuses on gas stations
Print Edition
BEIJING police began inspecting some 1,000 gas stations in the capital yesterday, the latest move in its crackdown on terrorism.
More than 100 inspection teams will check station safety as well as the management of oil products.
The gas stations are to be prohibited from refueling vehicles without license plates or those with their plate number covered, a police spokesman said. Special staff will be designated to look after self-serve pumps, while motorcyclists and the handicapped will also have designated staff to help them refuel their vehicles.
Customers will be required to provide relevant papers issued by the local police department before purchasing gasoline in bulk, and staff should not refuel vehicles before making sure the vehicle’s plate number is consistent with the number on the driving license.
Any stations found with potential safety risks will be required to eradicate the problems, and those with serious security problems punished accordingly.
“Gas stations are where flammable and explosive materials are stored, and it is necessary to guarantee safety there,” police said.
Police in the capital have been beefing up their efforts to clamp down on terrorism in the wake of a series of bloody terrorist attacks across the country.
On Monday, they announced a reward of 10,000 yuan (about US$1,610) to a citizen for providing information about gasoline bootlegging in the capital.
Meanwhile, police are offering 50,000 yuan to those who provide tip-offs on illegal activities including printing books on extremism, selling knives banned by police, and making explosive devices.
