"That night, my brother saw a column of white smoke rising from the chemical plant. He was downwind of the chemical plant. After a while, he felt his throat was dry and sore, "Liu Hongchang's cousin Liu Li said. "Then he called a friend who was playing cards near the downwind of the chemical plant and said,' The chemical plant is smoking, and my throat starts to hurt when I smell it'. From beginning to end, he only called this friend. "
"Spreading" in the crime of intentionally spreading false terrorist information refers to the act of spreading the information to an unspecified majority under the premise of knowing that it is false terrorist information. "Professor Hong Daode believes that on the night of the incident, Liu Hongchang called a friend downwind, which belongs to peer-to-peer notification and does not belong to communication. If Liu Hongchang sends short messages to Weibo, it is communication. Judging from the whole process of Liu Hongchang's behavior, he did not have the subjective desire to disturb social order, so Liu Hongchang's crime of deliberately spreading false terrorist information was not established.
After the local government explained that the "columnar white smoke" on the night of the incident was just ordinary water vapor, Liuli thought that Liu Hongchang was just an ordinary person. Under the circumstances at that time, it was impossible to accurately distinguish whether the witness belonged to smoke or gas, and what was in the "columnar white smoke" that caused his sore throat.
"Making something out of nothing is making it up," Professor Hong said. "Liu Hongchang witnessed the" white smoke "and personally felt the" sore throat ". Based on these two points, it is far from making it up. At best, it can only be said that he acted improperly and rashly, and he should be careful in his future work.
Lawyer Yu Dehua said that what the Liu people are most concerned about is when Liu Hongchang will be released. According to the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Law, the term of criminal detention is usually 7 days, and it is 30 days under the three legal conditions of "multiple crimes, escape crimes and group crimes", but the Liu Hongchang case does not belong to any of these three situations. But as of 20 1 1 month, Liu Hongchang has never returned home. Lawyers Liuli and Yu Dehua believe that Liu Hongchang's detention period is likely to be extended to 30 days.
