Guo Zhiyu of Shanghai Huisheng Law Firm and many other legal persons said that "this case is quite special". From the behavioral point of view, Xia does not belong to legitimate acts such as self-defense and emergency avoidance; If Xia didn't directly lead to Wang Kejia's death, it depends on the extent to which Xia's behavior hurt Wang Kejia to decide whether he is guilty or not.
Article 28 of China's current criminal law stipulates that a person who is coerced to participate in a crime shall be given a mitigated punishment or exempted from punishment according to the circumstances of his crime. "Why did the official directly exempt him from punishment?" Wang Gengyou and his wife questioned. After the incident, Xia has been recuperating at home and didn't go to work. Hao Zhenyu revealed yesterday that Xia often had nightmares and was in a poor mental state. Some insiders even said, "Xia is close to a state of mental breakdown."
A major criminal case of kidnapping and murder occurred in Pingdingshan. In this case, the kidnapper forced the hostage Xia (a staff member of Xinhua District Procuratorate in Pingdingshan City, a pseudonym) to rape and strangle the 25-year-old female designer Wang Kejia. After the incident, all the kidnappers were arrested, but Xia, who was suspected of rape and murder, was not investigated for criminal responsibility, causing dissatisfaction among the families of the deceased.
"The case is really complicated." Lu Changqing, an attorney entrusted by the parents of the deceased Wang Kejia, said that by reading the case file, he found that there were many inconsistencies between the statements of the eight defendants and those of Xia. According to media reports, on July 13, Zhao Zhengwei, the criminal investigation detachment of Pingdingshan Public Security Bureau, told him that from the case file, some witnesses testified that Wang Kejia was killed by Xia, and some people testified that the kidnapper killed Wang Kejia twice (it is said that there are video materials to prove it).
Wang Kejia's parents, Wang Gengyou and Wan Junhua, have drafted a civil indictment attached to a criminal case, which is ready to be submitted to the Pingdingshan Intermediate People's Court. In the indictment, they made three demands. First of all, it is requested to investigate the criminal responsibility of eight suspects for intentional homicide and kidnapping according to law; Secondly, it is required to investigate Xia's criminal responsibility for rape and intentional homicide according to law; Iii. The defendant was ordered to compensate the plaintiff for funeral expenses, living expenses of dependents, death compensation, spiritual damages, etc., totaling 730,508 yuan.
