(1) major and complicated cases in remote areas with very inconvenient transportation.
(2) Major criminal syndicate cases.
(3) Major and complicated cases of escaping crime.
(4) major and complicated cases involving a wide range of crimes and difficulties in obtaining evidence.
if the criminal suspect may be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of more than 11 years, and the investigation cannot be concluded after the extension period expires according to the provisions of article 158 of this law, it may be extended for another two months with the approval or decision of the people's procuratorate of the province, autonomous region or municipality directly under the central government.
For special reasons, especially serious and complicated cases that are not suitable for trial for a long time, the Supreme People's Procuratorate shall report to the NPC Standing Committee for approval to postpone the trial.

Specific means of illegal fund-raising
Illegal fund-raising has spread to more and more fields. Cases in traditional fields such as commodity marketing, resource development, planting and breeding, investment guarantee have occurred from time to time, and emerging fields such as loan financing, private equity, virtual currency and consumer rebate have gradually become the hardest hit areas of illegal fund-raising crimes. In particular, the crime of illegal fund-raising on the Internet has become a common mode, with more prominent cross-border characteristics and faster infection accumulation.
It is worth noting that many low-income people, farmers and retirees participated in it. In some cases, more than half of the participants were elderly people, and many people put "pension money" and "life-saving money" into fund-raising and almost lost all their money.
Promise high returns and make up the myth of "pie falling from the sky" and "becoming rich overnight". Lure by profiteering is the only way for all fraudsters to deceive the masses. In order to attract more people, criminals often promise investors to give high returns in the form of rewards and points rebates.
in order to defraud more people to participate in fund-raising, illegal fund-raisers first pay the principal and interest of the early investors in full and on time, then rob Peter to pay Paul, and pay the previous principal and interest with the money of the later fund-raisers. After reaching a certain scale, they secretly transfer funds and abscond with the money.
