Red Alert 1895

Chapter 168: Court session (on)

Soon, three days later, the trial of the patriarch of the Zhang family in Taipei for allegedly killing Zhang Yan, a family member, began. √∟ Vertex said, .. and this case has attracted a lot of attention, because this time it is related to whether the land allocated by the family patriarch to the branch of the family can be recovered. Moreover, those who have acquired the land are also worried that if the family patriarchs can take back these lands at will, then I am afraid that they will not feel safe. And many businessmen also feel that whoever owns these lands should belong to them, so that those merchants and capitalists can feel at ease. After all, if the property under one's own name can be taken away by the so-called family casually, then no one will feel safe at all. This is also a serious challenge to the legal norm of inviolability of legal private property.

"Governor of Taiwan, Mr. Wang, is humane!"

"Hehe, I'm just a bystander this time. You don't have to pay attention to me. You should try it as you should. This time, you must try it according to the law, and you can't have any acts of favoritism!" Wang Guorui road.

Even though Wang Guorui was like this, he knew in his heart that if the trial was truly conducted according to the law, he would definitely win. But how to implement it after the trial is the most important thing. The trial of this case is tantamount to a political struggle. The trial process is not the main thing, but an ideological revolution. Only by letting those people really get rid of the rule of the clan in their minds can they be truly mature. . So how to implement after the trial and how to publicize the law are the core.

Unfortunately, this Zhang family Zhang Dongfang has become a target for demonstration by the Taiwan side, so that everyone can see a typical example from Zhang Dongfang, and let those ordinary people serve as an example of protecting themselves according to the law.

Originally, many people proposed to try the case in person this time, but Wang Guorui finally refused. After all, he is the governor of Taiwan, not a judicial official. If he tried it himself at will, it would be a very bad start for his successors. If I come to the trial in person now, then my heirs after becoming the emperor will follow suit and often use the process of personal trial to manipulate the judiciary, which will not be good for the country. So there are some guidelines, it's better not to do it. I can manipulate behind the scenes, but I absolutely can't go into battle in person to conduct a trial. This is definitely not conducive to his future rule.

"Now, bring the criminal suspect Zhang Dongfang!" Wang Xiande said.

The trial this time was personally heard by the president of the Taiwan court, Wang Xiande. After all, the meaning of this case is different, so it is normal for him to hear it. The criminal suspect Zhang Dongfang was also brought up. He was handcuffed, and there were two military police guarding him, who stood behind him to **** and protect him, and then prevented him from doing any excessive behavior.

"Now. Let the public prosecutor of the public prosecution office read out the indictment!" Wang Xiande said.

According to the policy of later generations, Wang Guorui has a public prosecution office for criminal cases, and then the public prosecution office is responsible for prosecuting those criminal cases. This can replace many vulnerable groups to file lawsuits, and prevent those victims from having the courage to sue others.

We must know that the criminals in many criminal cases are either vicious or powerful. If ordinary people are victimized, they may not dare to sue because they are persecuted by them, which makes it impossible for the court to hear the case. The public prosecution department is to sue on behalf of the people, and even the victim is not qualified to withdraw the lawsuit. This can effectively maintain justice and prevent those victims from suing because they are threatened. This has allowed criminals to go unpunished.

"The defendant, Zhang Dongfang, was suspected of instructing his servants to beat and kill the family member Zhang Dongfang, and caused the death of the victim. According to Zhang's servant's statement, Zhang Dongfang made it clear that if the victim was unwilling to hand over the land, , that can kill the victim. All of this shows that Zhang Dongfang already had the idea of ​​killing the victim, which is a subjective and intentional homicide. Later, Zhang Dongfang also illegally occupied the land and property belonging to the victim. Suspected of the crime of embezzlement for the purpose of illegal possession And the circumstances are particularly bad, and the impact is very bad, so we recommend that the court sentence Zhang Dongfang to death, and attach civil compensation to the victim Zhang Yan's family to compensate accordingly."

Soon, the public prosecutor read out the indictment. But Wang Guorui is quite satisfied with the indictment below. There are two main charges against Zhang Dongfang, one is murder, and the other is illegal possession of the victim's land and property. On the surface, the former murder charge is more serious, but everyone is concerned about the latter land dispute. Because everyone is more concerned about whether the clan can take back the land distributed to ordinary family members by those landlords at will. If it can be taken back at will, it means that the protection of private property cannot be achieved at all. But if they can't take it back at will, then the elders of those clans will definitely not be willing. After all, they originally distributed the land to the clan members just to avoid tax reasonably, but now the clan members actually want to swallow these lands, of course they can't agree.

"Zhang Dongfang, are you pleading guilty?" Wang Xiande asked.

"I'm not guilty!" Zhang Dongfang said.

And many people were very shocked, because they obviously killed someone, but there are still people who think they are innocent? Since ancient times, killing people paid for their lives, and he was also suspected of embezzling the property of the same clan, which is clearly why he is guilty. But he still stubbornly believes that he is innocent. This is obviously challenging everyone's past thinking.

And Wang Guorui would not be too strange about this kind of thing, after all, those with vested interests are all duck-mouthed guys with rotten flesh and mouths. They don't think they are guilty at all, they stubbornly use the old thoughts of the past to measure their actions, so he naturally thinks he is innocent. They still use the past government to measure the current government of Taiwan. Naturally, they think that the current government should still support their clan power as it did in the past, and think that they should rely on these clans to maintain it. They also think that the current government should maintain the family and clan rule as it did in the past, and this is their foundation. So even if he is arrested now and faces trial, it should support his innocence.

"The trial is starting now, and the public prosecutor is now invited to conduct an inquiry." Wang Xiande said.

And the public prosecutor immediately began to ask: "The defendant Zhang Dongfang, did you beat the victim Zhang Yan before, and instructed the servants in the family to beat him to death if necessary?"

"I'm enforcing the family law!" Zhang Dongfang said.

But the public prosecutor also said: "I just want to ask you now, do you beat the victim, and tell the servant that you can beat the victim to death if necessary? You just need to answer yes or no."

"Yes! But..." Zhang Dongfang wanted something, but was immediately stopped by the public prosecutor.

"Okay, since you have admitted this, that means instructing the servant to commit murder. Your crime of intentional homicide is already very obvious," the prosecutor said.

"But I am enforcing the family law, is there something wrong?" Zhang Dongfang shouted.

"That's right! Is it wrong to enforce the family law?" Someone immediately shouted.

"Yes! He is enforcing the family law, there is nothing wrong with it!" "Everyone in the family must abide by the family law. If you don't obey the family law, you deserve to be beaten to death!" "Yes! He doesn't listen to the patriarch, it's him If you court your own death, no one else will blame you!"…

When Wang Guorui saw a group of people making trouble under the court, Wang Guorui couldn't help but snorted coldly. These were the core of those clan forces, and they were naturally unwilling to die like this. They saw Zhang Dongfang being tried for enforcing the family law, which made them feel bitter, so they all had to come to support Zhang Dongfang in his resistance. They spontaneously came to make trouble, hoping to prevent Zhang Dongfang from being judged on the grounds of family law? They are also afraid that one day they will lose the right to enforce the family law, so that they will all be judged for enforcing the family law.

You must know that many of these ancient family laws~www.readwn.com~ are private courts. When many people commit crimes, they will not go to the government's judiciary to solve them, but let an older and respected person in the family adjust and deal with them. Of course, this approach has both advantages and disadvantages. Because the good side is to save the government's public resources, but the bad side is that the judiciary cannot be fully implemented. What is the use of establishing laws if they cannot be enforced? And many of the so-called pig cages in ancient times, and various cases of dealing with adulterers and prostitutes were also the result of private courts, not legal laws of the court.

But this kind of family law system has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is not suitable for the next reform of the country. If this feudal and backward patriarchal system is allowed to exist in the hearts of the people, I am afraid that the people's own legal rights will not be guaranteed in the future, and everything will be handled by the so-called patriarchs. However, many of the results of those clan elders' disposals were illegal, and this was the real horror. Wang Guorui must put an end to this situation. This situation is one of the manifestations of feudal clan ideology, so it must be severely suppressed.

"Snapped!"

"Silence, silence!"

Wang Xiande struck the gavel vigorously, and then asked everyone to be quiet. And then, the prosecutor continued. (To be continued..)
