Shanghai detains more than 1,300 in widespread raids
Shanghai police raided nightclubs, Internet cafes and private homes, detaining more than 1,300 people suspected of crimes including illegal gambling and robbery, a newspaper reported yesterday.

More than 1,000 officers joined in Tuesday's raids, which resulted in the seizure of 17 vehicles suspected of being used in crimes and eight gambling machines, the Shanghai Daily said.

Among those detained, two were on a national wanted list for allegedly organizing gambling on the Internet, it said. Others were suspected of break-ins at area schools.
