After Li Zhuang was arrested, the local people in Chongqing unanimously applauded. "Zhuang Li is too bad to treat Chongqing people as fools." On February 26, 65438, a taxi driver in Chongqing said that his information came from local media and anecdotal stories, such as: "Li Zhuang once sent a message to his Beijing counterpart saying,' It's dark enough, stupid, rich, come quickly'." On February 25th, 65438, Li Zhuang's defense lawyer Gao Zicheng said that Li Zhuang denied sending such information. There is no relevant evidence of this information in the evidence list of prosecution against Li Zhuang.
12 18, Lin Yujun, the new director of Chongqing Municipal Bureau of Justice, said that some lawyers in Chongqing were involved in the case of Beijing lawyer Li Zhuang suspected of forging evidence, which sounded the alarm for Chongqing lawyers.
At Chongqing Hong Gang Law Firm, Zhu Honggang, as the director of the law firm, said that the old lawyers reacted violently to the Li Zhuang case, and they lamented that "the living environment is too difficult". "Whether Li Zhuang is guilty or not, this case has a warning significance for criminal defense lawyers." Zhu Honggang said, "After this incident, there will definitely be fewer lawyers willing to represent criminal cases."
Scholars suggest that the trial be broadcast live.
After anti-counterfeiting entered the trial stage, Chongqing began to study "anti-counterfeiting". On February 28th, 65438, an official of Chongqing Municipal Committee revealed that at the request of Chongqing's top management, Southwest University of Political Science and Law and other institutions had organized a group of scholars and experts to study the work of cracking down on evil.
According to some special reports obtained by the reporter, a scholar from Southwest University of Political Science and Law suggested that Chongqing has been successful in dealing with the relationship between law enforcement, judicature and media, but there are serious problems in the way of information dissemination in the case of Li Zhuang's alleged forgery of evidence and obstruction of testimony. According to the information collected, the Chongqing public security organs released news to the media in the form of a press release, and in the evening, by interviewing Gong Gangmo and Wu Jiayou (another defense lawyer in Gong Gangmo), the news channel of Chongqing TV confirmed Li Zhuang's criminal suspicion to the society. Subsequently, the media were allowed to interview many witnesses. The scholar believes that these practices are not only conducive to maintaining the normal investigation order, but also conducive to protecting the suspect's right to "presumption of innocence".
The scholar suggested that if the media can be allowed to broadcast live the cases of government officials and judicial officials such as Wen Qiang, as well as major triad crimes, more people will "feel the civilization and justice of the triad trial in Chongqing" and can also play a good supervisory role in the trial.
