> This sounds not right... but yeah... it is China. And China does not have other means to use like US to extradite fugitives or request the money back even it got all the evidence... exit-ban and blackmailing are the only way China can go... That's horseshit. China is widely known to operate police/spies all over the world to forcibly repatriate people that it considers Chinese citizens against their will...in blatant violation of the laws of those countries. The threat is "we'll come and get you, wherever you go, and if we have to nobody will ever hear from you again".
