First, the two sides were slightly injured in the fight, and it was impossible to mediate to the court, and compensation was made according to regulations. In accordance with the law, those who cause injuries shall be compensated: medical expenses, lost time, nursing expenses, transportation expenses, food subsidies for hospitalization, and necessary nutrition expenses. The division of fighting responsibility in public security disputes and criminal disputes is not very important, but it is extremely important to check and identify the injured victim after injury; As for the case where the victim is an elderly person over the age of 60 who is slightly injured in public security disputes, according to Article 43 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Public Security Administration Punishment, anyone who beats others or intentionally hurts others' bodies shall be detained for more than five days and less than ten days, and shall be fined more than 200 yuan and less than 500 yuan; If the circumstances are minor, they shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than five hundred yuan. Under any of the following circumstances, he shall be detained for not less than 10 days but not more than 15 days, and shall be fined not less than 500 yuan but not more than 1,000 yuan: (1) beating or injuring others in a gang; (2) Beating or injuring a disabled person, a pregnant woman, a person under the age of 14 or a person over the age of 60; In addition, the hitter should also compensate the related medical, nursing and transportation expenses.
2. If it is only a criminal offence that causes minor injuries to ordinary people, then according to Article 234 of the Criminal Law, after the criminal case is filed, it will be submitted to the procuratorate for arrest and prosecution. The standard of sentencing is: whoever intentionally hurts another person's body shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance. Whoever commits the crime mentioned in the preceding paragraph and causes serious injuries shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years; Whoever causes death or serious disability by particularly cruel means shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years, life imprisonment or death. Where there are other provisions in this Law, such provisions shall prevail. In addition, in criminal proceedings, civil proceedings can be attached, requiring the hitter to compensate for the related medical, nursing and transportation expenses. Under normal circumstances, there is a major fault in hitting people first, and the other party is forced to fight back, which is a legitimate defense. B fought back and subdued A. It was self-defense without further attack. But the specific situation must be treated in a specific way. A is an old man and belongs to a vulnerable group. If B knows that the other person is an old man or should know that the other person is an old man, it will also constitute excessive defense. Party B shall bear certain civil liability for compensation. If it constitutes a minor injury, it must also bear certain criminal responsibility.
