The man was detained for fabricating terrorist information that there was a bomb at the airport and threatening to blow up the bank?

On the afternoon of July 22nd, according to Weibo, the official of Shanghai Hongkou Public Security Bureau, a man reported to the police twice that there was a bomb at the airport and threatened to blow up the bank. After careful investigation, Hongkou Branch arrested the suspect Liu within 1 hour.

Liu confessed to the crime of fabricating false terrorist information to vent personal anger. At present, Liu has been criminally detained by the police. The police are telling that the public security organs will resolutely punish any malicious fabrication and dissemination of false terrorist information for whatever purpose.

It is illegal to fabricate and disseminate false information. According to the degree of harm and other specific circumstances, the publisher will be dealt with in different degrees according to law, and if the circumstances are serious, he will bear criminal responsibility.

Although there are great differences between cyberspace and social reality, there are also similarities. If there is no effective supervision, it may lead to disastrous consequences. Relying on "rumors stop at the wise" can't produce the effect of cutting the bottom of the barrel. In the absence of legal governance, it is inevitable that the network will infringe upon the interests of others, society and the country. Under the proposition of governing the country according to law, the most important thing is to govern all kinds of irresponsible remarks in cyberspace according to law, so that rumors have nowhere to hide. From this perspective, the responsibility of spreading rumors will rise from civil and administrative responsibility to criminal responsibility, precisely because rumors have serious social harm.
