Elected and sentenced! Why didn't the second trial of American man's intentional homicide in Ningbo begin immediately?

On July 19, 2002, the second trial of the intentional homicide case of an American man in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province was held. The defendant's name is Shadid? Abdulmeiting killed the woman Chen Mou on 202 1. This incident has aroused widespread concern from the outside world, so many people came to attend the second trial, but the final conclusion is that the verdict should be pronounced on another day. According to the relevant laws and regulations, the case will be pronounced on a certain day, which means that it cannot be pronounced in court. We should go to court to study and then find a date to make a judgment.

Shadid and the murdered woman met on 20 19. At that time, Hadid lied that he was divorced and single, and then slowly became boyfriend and girlfriend with Chen Mou. Around May, 20021year, female Chen Mou repeatedly proposed to Shadid to break up, but Shadid disagreed and threatened Chen Mou in language many times.

On June 4th, 2002/KLOC-0, at around 8 pm, Shadid got in touch with Chen Mou in advance, brought a folding knife and some clothes with him when they met, and then went to a bus stop near Ningbo, Zhejiang to meet Chen Mou and talked about it. The two sides didn't discuss it, so at 9: 48 pm, Shadid stabbed Chen Mou several times in the neck with the knife he carried with him, causing Chen Mou to lose the ability to resist, and then continued to poke Chen Mou in the face. Chen Mou finally died on the spot due to massive bleeding.

This matter has been decided in the first instance before. The Ningbo Intermediate People's Court held that Shadid's behavior constituted the crime of intentional homicide. The public security organs also believed that Shadid's criminal facts were very clear, including sufficient evidence, so he was sentenced to death. After the verdict was pronounced, Shadid refused to accept it and filed an appeal, which can be tried again in July 2022. This time, Shadid invited two defense lawyers, and some officials and representatives of the US Consulate in Shanghai also attended the audit, but the final result was an election verdict.
