Many of the defeated fighters of the BinhXuyen joined the Vietcong.
Like many other South Vietnamese sectarian militant groups, the BinhXuyen were mostly wiped out by South Vietnamese forces under Nguyen Khanh in Operation "Rung-Sat".
The 2eme Bureau's pact with the BinhXuyen was part of a larger French policy of using ethnic, religious, and political factions to deny territory to the Viet Minh.
By April 1954 the BinhXuyen military commander, Lai Van Sang, was director-general of police, and the BinhXuyen controlled the capital region and the sixty-mile strip between Saigon and Cap Saint Jacques.
However, the BinhXuyen broke the deadlock in their own inimitable fashion: they advised the Chinese franchise holders that the BinhXuyen police would no longer protect the casinos from Viet Minh terrorists (87) kidnapped the head of the Macao syndicate, (88) and, finally, pledged to continue everybody's stipends.
