December 7, 2020, CCTV News reported, Anhui 17-year-old high school girl in the police watch suicide drowning incident, the girl's father voiced, the child was turning her back to the police, if the other side of the action faster, should be able to pull her back.
December 4, about Anqing City, Anhui Province, Wangjiang County, a 17-year-old girl, jumped into the river to commit suicide on the scene video circulated online. The video shows that two police officers are persuading the girl standing in the river, who expected the other looked back, but also jumped and sank into the river.
Several police officers, who do not seem to know how to swim and have no relevant rescue facilities in their hands, tried to take a few steps in the water toward the place where the girl sank, only to turn back. The girl was later recovered and died after doctors at the scene rescued her.
Once the video was uploaded, many netizens questioned the police's rescue and disposal process, arguing that it was the police's ineffective rescue that led to the tragedy.
There are also netizens who believe that saving one person should not be at the expense of another. The police are also human beings, and their own safety should also be taken into account.
Changan Jian, a member of the Central Political and Law Commission, said a rescue that does not succeed in saving lives is a failure, but criticism that is not based on facts will give the rescuers a chill. The moment people decide to give up on life, the probability of administering a rescue grows exponentially. When they walk onto rooftops and cross rivers, all rescues are not called timely.
According to Xin'an Evening News, a source revealed that the girl had wandered around the site of the incident for more than an hour the day before it happened. The girl's relatives said she was the only child in the family and her parents rented a house near the school to accompany her. The child usually spoke little and didn't talk much to her parents about what she was doing at school. They could not think of any reason why the child would commit suicide and were waiting for the results of the police investigation.
The drowned girl was enrolled in Wangjiang County High School, sophomore this year. According to Poster News, the girl's classmates revealed that she usually had good grades and was on the honor roll. A few days before the incident, the school's monthly examination results, the girl had said that this monthly examination failure, "test bomb". But the tone she showed at the time was very relaxed, coupled with the usual optimistic performance, the school students did not expect her to commit suicide. The classmate also said the girl was well liked in school and had never heard of anyone bullying her.
The girl's father, Mr. Zhou, said the child came back early the night before the incident, said the body is not comfortable, because she has been before the stomach disease, they did not care too much. Later, the child used his cell phone to check his grades, although some regression, but he and his child are quite satisfied.
After the child's accident, the government sent a professional doctor to give the family psychological counseling, and other follow-up work is also in place, but for themselves, the child is gone, and now all this is meaningless.
According to Cover News, Yin Qingli, a lawyer, said that according to the current relevant laws, it is not reasonable to hold the police officers present criminally responsible, but the Public Security Bureau will probably bear administrative responsibility.
He suggested that the family of the drowned girl could file an administrative lawsuit with the court against the local police officers for inaction and compensation to safeguard their legal rights. At the same time, it is also hoped that the local public security organs can take this as a warning to strengthen the rescue knowledge training for police officers, and improve the configuration of the relevant rescue equipment.
