検挙、トクリュウ犯罪で１万人超　昨年、特殊詐欺など―暴力団上回る・警察庁

　特殊詐欺や闇バイト強盗など「匿名・流動型犯罪グループ（トクリュウ）」の資金調達につながる犯罪で、２０２４年の１年間に検挙された人員が１万１０５人に上ったことが３日、警察庁のまとめで分かった。一方、暴力団構成員らの検挙人員はこれを下回る８２４９人で過去最少だった。
　同庁によると、トクリュウは収益が集まる中核部分は匿名化され、実行役はＳＮＳなどでその都度募集されるのが特徴。特殊詐欺やＳＮＳ型詐欺、悪質ホストクラブ事犯に加え、昨年首都圏で相次いだ闇バイト強盗などに深く関わっている。
　主な資金獲得犯罪の検挙人員は、詐欺２６５５人▽窃盗９９１人▽薬物事犯９１７人▽強盗３４８人▽風営法違反２９２人だった。（2025/04/03-10:10）

Japanese police took action against 10,105 people last year for crimes designed to raise funds for "tokuryu" loosely connected anonymous crime groups, the National Police Agency said Thursday.
   Tokuryu groups are often linked to special fraud schemes, social media-based scams, violent robberies and exploitative male host clubs. Members are recruited through shady part-time job postings on social media, while ringleaders remain anonymous.
   Over tokuryu-linked crimes in 2024, police took action against 2,655 people for fraud, 991 people for thefts, 917 people for drug cases, 348 people for robberies, and 292 people for violating the amusement business law.
   Ringleaders accounted for 1,011 people of the total, while perpetrators made up about 90 pct. About 40 pct of the perpetrators, at 3,925 people, were recruited on social media.
   The NPA said the police took action against 8,249 members of organized crime syndicates across the country in 2024, marking a record low and a decrease of 1,361 from the previous year.
