Combination photo taken shows a file photo of Yang Xiuzhu in Wenzhou of east China's Zhejiang Province in 2002 (L) and Yang Xiuzhu's lawyer Vlad Kuzmin (3rd R) waits prior to Yang's hearing at an immigration court in New York, the United States, June 9, 2015 (R). The first hearing in the trial of China's most wanted economic fugitive Yang Xiuzhu took place in a New York immigration court on June 9. Yang, who went into hiding after being sought after by anti-corruption investigators in China, has been detained in the United States. Yang is one of the 100 Chinese nationals suspected of corruption who are believed to have fled abroad. She used to serve as vice mayor of Wenzhou, a coastal city in the eastern Zhejiang Province. When investigators started looking into her activities in 2003, she and her family fled China. By the end of November 2015, a total of 738 suspects, including 18 "Red Notice" fugitives, have been captured overseas since China's "Fox hunt 2015" campaign began in April 2015. Thirty-two of them were seized over 10 years after they fled. (Xinhua/Wang Lei)
