Red Alert 1895

Regarding the case of the British killing the Taiwanese traffic policeman, the trial began half a month after the incident. Then this trial was full of seats, not only consuls from various countries came, but even many people from Taiwan also came. And they also hope to watch the British be brought to justice, and then give an explanation to the traffic policeman who was killed by him. And at this time, everyone was very concerned, and the whole of Taiwan was also paying attention. Not only was the trial court full of seats, but even countless people outside came here even if they asked for leave, just to be able to hear the corresponding news as soon as possible. As for what's next, the trial begins soon.

"Now, the trial of the British traffic policeman Philip's murder is now officially underway. The defendant is invited to enter the court! The public prosecutor is requested to read the indictment!" Ning Quanli, the presiding judge, said.

The Englishman Philip was handcuffed and sent to the dock, and behind him were two bailiffs from Taiwan to prevent him from doing anything bad. And this trial, Wang Guorui was also watching, and he absolutely did not allow any accidents. This time, he must be brought to justice before the deceased can be avenged. And the self-confidence of the country and the nation can be improved. However, the process must also be legal. If the process is not legal, it will only be a thing with endless troubles in the end, even worse than a trial.

"We are prosecuting the case of the British Philip killing our traffic policeman in our Keelung port. The defendant Philip, in..." Jin Nong began to read the indictment, and quickly finished it.

"Now, ask the defendant, do you plead guilty?" Ning Quanli asked.

Soon, the translations were also translated into English, and then Philip was asked to make a statement.

"I hope I can entrust everything to my lawyer Robert to answer, I will not express any opinions on this!" Philip said.

And soon. Robert, an English lawyer with a briefcase, also took the initiative to come up. This Robert is a well-known barrister in Hong Kong. He has fought many lawsuits and is an out-and-out litigator. While the British consul was under siege. Immediately after the electricity was restored, a telegram was sent to Hong Kong, asking them to invite the best lawyers. We must win this case. At the very least, this Philip must not die, so that they can maintain their national prestige in the UK to a minimum. And it is best to let him be handed over to the United Kingdom for disposal. Although in order to take into account Taiwan's face, it must be dealt with, but the provision of consular jurisdiction is maintained.

"Dear judge, I will answer for our client. This is a power of attorney signed by the client, Philip. I will answer all questions on his behalf," Robert said.

Ning Quanli took a look at the authorization letter. They all nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Now, I will first question whether you, Taiwan, have the right to try my client. My client is a citizen of the British Empire, and according to the Nanjing Treaty, you should have no right to judge the citizens of our British Empire. Our British Empire After citizens break the law, they must be handed over to the courts of our British Empire for trial, so you have no right to judge our citizens. Since you are an administrative special zone under the Chinese government, you are naturally bound by the Treaty of Nanjing, so You cannot judge the citizens of our British Empire," Robert said.

But someone immediately scolded: "What? You killed our people, and we can't judge your people?"

"That's right! It's really unreasonable!" "Nonsense. It's unreasonable!"...

Some of the lower-quality and rude Chinese people in the auditorium below started cursing immediately, and the auditorium seemed to become a vegetable market, and then condemned Robert together. But Robert had a thick skin. Since he is a litigator, he wants to interfere with the order of the trial on the grounds of breaking various litigation rules, so that he can gain benefits. In Robert's eyes, Taiwan is part of China, and this is the biggest trump card. The trump card is the Treaty of Nanjing. The Treaty of Nanjing was signed that year, and it was agreed that the British have consular jurisdiction, and the Chinese government cannot arbitrarily judge it. Although Taiwan has been separated from the mainland a lot. The administrative system is also different, but as long as it is still under the framework of China. That also has to abide by the treaty.

If Taiwan violates this law, it can be said that there is a pitfall. Once Taiwan does not recognize the treaty. That means that Taiwan will become an independent country, which will be more beneficial to the British. Once Taiwan truly becomes an independent country, there is no reason for Taiwan to enter the mainland again. So they all think the same way. If Taiwan itself is China's first step, it means that it must abide by the Nanjing Treaty. However, if the Treaty of Nanjing is not recognized, it will not be clear from the legal point of view, so everyone feels very difficult. Especially judges are even more embarrassing.

"|Silence, silence!" Ning Quanli knocked on the gavel, and then shouted.

Soon, the scene became quiet, and then Ning Quanli explained: "As for the Treaty of Nanjing, Taiwan has a special situation. When we established the Special Administrative Region, we had already entered into a treaty with the mainland government. It stipulates that any treaty signed by the mainland cannot involve Taiwan. If it involves Taiwan, it must be signed and confirmed by a representative of Taiwan. Therefore, we in Taiwan did not add a signature to the Nanjing Treaty, which means that this is only the mainland. The government and your affairs, we Taiwan has independent diplomatic rights, so we are not bound by this treaty."

"No, no, this is against the constitution, definitely against the constitution. Does your Chinese constitution allow this to happen?" Robert said brazenly.

"Sorry, we don't have a constitution yet in China," Ning Quanli said.

"Fuck squid!" Robert cursed in his heart.

Robert never dreamed that there is no constitution in China. What Ning Quanli said just now has independent diplomatic rights, he simply dare not think about it. He dare not imagine that China's constitution would allow such a statement. As a litigator, he naturally knows how to use the law as an excuse to achieve his goals. He is British, and the thought of ruling the country by law has penetrated into his heart. But he didn't expect that China didn't have a constitution in this period, which really made him almost vomit blood. If there is no constitution, that means there is no way to accuse Taiwan of violating China's constitution. Therefore, in this case, the provisions of the Special Administrative Region signed by Taiwan and the mainland are also legal, and violation of the Constitution cannot be used as a reason.

"Damn, what a savage, they don't even have a constitution!" Robert cursed secretly.

However, Robert also has two brushes, so he naturally has a way to solve the next problem. Of course he wouldn't pin all his hopes on the interface just now, he must have other ways.

"Also, about the killing of traffic policemen by citizens of our British Empire. My client said that it was the traffic policeman who yelled at and insulted Her Majesty the Queen of the British Empire, so he shot in his momentary indignation. And our client also said: It is to maintain the national prestige of our British Empire, and it cannot be simply regarded as an ordinary murder case. It is like someone in your country insulting your country. Aren’t you angry? Therefore, although my client is responsible, it is not important, so I don’t It should be judged as intentional homicide, at most it is manslaughter. And your traffic police is the main person responsible." Robert said.

Soon, public prosecutor Jin Nong came over to question: "Are you sure you shot when the traffic police insulted the queen of your country?"

And Robert immediately said: "Yes, my client shot when your traffic police deliberately insulted our Queen."

Prosecutor Jin Nong immediately said: "In this case, we also rely on our witnesses!"

Soon, a person who looked like a staff member of the Taiwan port also came over, and then he took the initiative to say: "I saw that foreign devil murder with my own eyes. He shot our traffic policeman in the back, so he Immediately fell to the ground. So, I saw him kill with my own eyes."

However, that Robert immediately said: "No, no, this witness is giving false testimony. He is Chinese, so he naturally helped the Chinese. Therefore, the testimony of the Chinese cannot be used as evidence~www.readwn.com~ So please judge The testimony was inadmissible because his testimony was seriously biased."

And Ning Quanli also adhered to the principle of neutrality, and then asked the public prosecutor Jin Nong: "Prosecutor, how can you prove that your witnesses are not mixed with personal national sentiments?"

Jin Nong immediately said: "I just want to ask the other party's lawyer, what kind of witnesses do you need to win your trust?"

"At least we Westerners!" said Robert.

And Jin Nong immediately showed a smile and said, "Then call a witness, Kissinger, a German ore merchant!"

Soon, a Westerner walked in, saluted Judge Ning Quanli, and finally stood on the witness stand.

"I was standing on the other side of the car at the time, and I could see very clearly that the traffic policeman was aiming at the inside of the car. He was about to pull out the car key, but I saw the British man took out a pistol and pointed it at him. A shot was fired in the back. The traffic policeman soon fell to the ground and died, and then the British man was also arrested by the Chinese police who heard the gunshots. This is the end of my testimony, Mr. Judge. Take it," Kissinger said. (to be continued)
