Chapter 393 Zhou Bingkun Overcomes Difficulties
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Zhou Bingkun's trial.
There were not many people at the trial, but many of Zhou Bingkun's friends came. Zhou Bingyi did not come, but Hao Dongmei came, and Zhou Rong, Cai Xiaoguang and others were also all there.
At this time, Zhou Bingkun was sitting in the dock with an untidy beard, wearing a yellow vest of a detention center and handcuffed, with two policemen beside him.
Zheng Juan sat in the back, looking at Zhou Bingkun with a distressed face. Fate had given her too much suffering. She had basically enjoyed no happiness in this life, only pain. Her life had finally gotten better, but Zhou Bingkun had gotten into this kind of thing again. Now she could only pray that he would be safe and sound.
At the beginning of the trial, the court ascertained Zhou Bingkun's identity, announced the defendant's suspected crimes, announced the people at the trial scene, and informed the parties and defense counsel of their rights. The prosecutor from the procuratorate then read out the indictment.
Next, Zhou Bingkun's lawyer provided various materials to prove, such as that Luo Shibin was originally a bad person, and produced relevant evidence, and explained that the reason why Zhou Bingkun took action first that day was entirely because of Luo Shibin's verbal provocation, etc. Finally, he also produced a letter of understanding signed by Zeng Shan.
It was Zeng Shan's turn. Her lawyer had nothing to say. Zeng Shan had already achieved her goal. Now she just wanted to end it all as soon as possible and get the property that she deserved.
The procuratorate had no objections and everything went very smoothly. The presiding judge then announced a fifteen-minute recess and several judges followed the presiding judge to the back court to discuss the matter.
Fifteen minutes later, the presiding judge and several judges returned to the courtroom.
"The verdict will now be announced. Everyone please stand up!"
Everyone stood up and looked at the presiding judge who was holding the documents in front of them, because the result he would say next would be the consequence that Zhou Bingkun would have to bear.
"The defendant Zhou Bingkun, male, 38 years old, was detained by the Daoli District Public Security Bureau on May 18, 1990 for this case."
What followed was a long paragraph about how the crime occurred, the evidence investigation, the investigation results, the determination of the facts of the crime, etc. After negotiation between the defendant and the plaintiff, the plaintiff decided not to pursue the defendant Zhou Bingkun's responsibility and reached a settlement.
"This court believes that the reporter Zhou Bingkun negligently caused the death of the victim Luo Shibin, and his behavior has constituted the crime of negligent homicide. The prosecution has established the charges, and this court supports it. After the incident, the defendant Zhou Bingkun stayed at the scene and actively treated the injured. After being arrested, he truthfully confessed the facts of the crime and can be given a lighter punishment according to law."
"After the defendant Zhou Bingkun was arrested, he actively contacted and negotiated with the victim's immediate family members, and eventually obtained the victim's family members' forgiveness. According to the defendant Zhou Bingkun's crime nature, circumstances and remorse, the declaration of probation will not have a significant adverse impact on the community where he lives, and probation can be applied to him according to law."
"In accordance with the provisions of Article xxx, Article xxx, Paragraph 3, Article xxx, Paragraph 1, Article xxx, Paragraph 2, and Paragraph 3 of the Criminal Law, the verdict is as follows: The defendant Zhou Bingkun is guilty of negligent homicide and is sentenced to two years in prison, suspended for three years!"
"If you do not agree with this judgment, you may appeal through this court or directly to the Harbin Intermediate People's Court of Heilongjiang Province within ten days from the second day after receiving the judgment. If you appeal in writing, you must submit one original and two copies of the appeal."
"Okay, court is adjourned!" The presiding judge struck the gavel and turned and left.
When the presiding judge struck the gavel, there was a brief silence in the courtroom, and then there was a huge cheer. Zheng Juan cried with joy, Zhou Bingkun's relatives and friends were all happy for him, and Zhou Bingkun himself lay on the table and cried bitterly. He thought he would go to jail this time, but unexpectedly, there was a ray of hope.
Zheng Juan was so excited that she wanted to run to Zhou Bingkun and hug him, but the policeman next to her did not let her do so. After all, a suspended sentence would not result in immediate release. This requires a process. The court would first change the compulsory measures and then notify the public security organs to go through the release procedures. This period is usually about twenty-four hours.
Although it is said to be 24 hours, he can basically be released within a few hours, but he needs to go through some procedures. Zheng Juan and others left together, waiting for Zhou Bingkun's release.
At this point, Zhou Bingkun's case was over, and his ordeal was over. When the trial ended, Yuan Mu, who was far away in the district committee, also learned the news. He laughed, lit a cigarette, walked to the window and looked into the distance.
"I hope you can have a peaceful life in the second half of your life."
It was enough for Yuan Mu to do this. If he did not have the memory of his previous life, he would not care about the matter of Zhou Bingkun, a completely unrelated stranger. There were too many such things and he could not take care of them all.
After standing by the window for a while, Yuan Mu returned to his seat and sat down. He took out a cowhide bag from the space. This was a report material. When he opened the bag, the name displayed on it was Lu Yuejin.
Yuan Mu never forgot this incident, and he investigated it later, and found that the person who instigated Huang Baiqian to bite back at him was Lu Yuejin. Yuan Mu was a fickle person, sometimes he was very kind-hearted, sometimes he had a heart as hard as steel, and sometimes he was terribly narrow-minded. At this time, he was extremely narrow-minded, and Lu Yuejin had long been on his radar.
Although this incident did not cause any fundamental harm to him, Lu Yuejin's behavior did disgust him. If he was really found to have problems during the investigation, even if nothing was done to him, there would still be a stain on his resume, which he absolutely would not allow. He would not allow any stains to appear on his resume, as he had great ambitions.
As for investigating Lu Yuejin, it was just a matter of convenience. Originally, they wanted to find some of his minor faults to take revenge, but they didn't expect that this guy was so frivolous. He used the power in his hands to engage in power-for-sex and full-power transactions. The evidence was in this file bag. As long as he submitted it, Lu Yuejin's political career would be over.
And that Huang Baiqian, the bastard actually dared to bite him. Ever since he came out of the interrogation room of the Discipline Inspection Commission, he has started to target Huang Baiqian. This kid's ass is not clean at all. Bribing officials and tax evasion are his common operations. There is no way. Yuan Mu is not a god and it is impossible for him to see the true face of every investor.
He also knew that among the investors in Daoli District, there must be people like him, but they would be handed over to the next secretary to handle, and he didn't have much time to take care of it. This was also the pain brought about by economic development and it was unavoidable.
Huang Baiqian has been arrested, and his assets in Daoli District have been sealed. The next step is to wait for the court's decision.
