These photos are of very low value, and after taking a few photos of the ruins, Bai Song looked at them for a long time, and they were almost of no value at all.

The fire certificate at the scene determined that the cause of the fire was a gas leak, and later it was found that there were certain product quality problems, and the relevant enterprises were fined.

That's it?

Bai Song felt very sad, the case of several people who died, that's all?

"Is there no autopsy report yet?" Bai Song asked.

"Yes, but it hasn't been passed on yet, so I guess I'll have to find it. Wei Ju said: "The case in the 90s, don't expect too much. The statute of limitations has expired. Wei Ju said.

"Isn't there a case on file?" someone asked.

"No case was filed. Another person said: "However, if the public security department should have filed a case but failed to file a case, the prosecution period should not be calculated." ”

...

Criminal cases and civil cases have similar provisions on the statute of limitations, which is called the statute of limitations in civil law and prosecution in criminal law.

The statute of limitations for civil law (as of 2020) is generally three years. You have lent money to the other party, and if you do not sue more than three years after the date of return, the other party will be able to raise the defense that the statute of limitations has elapsed.

If the other party does not understand the law and has not raised a defense, then the court will accept it normally until the court is about to make a judgment, and the other party's right to defend disappears. Or if the other party knows that it has this right at this time and applies for an appeal, it cannot invoke the defense of the statute of limitations during the appeal.

To put it simply, if you don't understand this, the court won't take the initiative to tell you that you have this right.

However, people who borrow money from other countries may not be aware of this rule, and those who owe money to others may not be unaware.

So don't be embarrassed to deal with those who don't pay back, hurry up and ask for it, or make up the IOU again, so that the three-year statute of limitations will be refreshed. If that person borrows money and goes into hiding for a while, you can go to a provincial newspaper every two years and spend a few hundred yuan to buy a small grid and make an announcement.

The prosecution period of the criminal law is very complicated, with public security cases being six months, and criminal cases being five years, 10 years, 15 years, and 20 years. After the promulgation of the Criminal Law in 1997, as long as the Public Security Bureau filed a case, or the Public Security Bureau should have filed a case but did not file it, then it could be punished for 100 years.

But if no one finds out about the case, the crime is essentially gone after the prosecution period.

Although 20 years have passed since the case of Zheng Yanwu, it is a situation where the public security organs should have filed a case but did not file a case, and it is reasonable to say that it will not be affected by the prosecution period.

However, the time of this case is 1994.

The 1997 Penal Code was preceded by the 1979 Penal Code.

"Wei Ju is right, it is indeed past the prosecution period. Bai Song nodded: "The case was not the 1997 Criminal Law, according to Article 77 of the 1979 Criminal Law, it must be the public procuratorate that evades investigation and trial after taking compulsory measures, for example, if he is released on bail pending trial, this situation is not limited by the prosecution period." If a case is filed separately or if a case should be filed but no case is filed, the prosecution period will still be calculated. According to the principle of the criminal law being both old and lenient and not retroactive, the prosecution period of that case has indeed passed. ”

"That's what the '79 Criminal Code says?" a few people whispered.

If you want to say that, it's all past the prosecution period and it's a fart...

Wei Ju saw that Bai Song's expression still hadn't changed, and he was a little curious. Having said all this, why is Bai Song not discouraged?

"Bai Suo, do you have any ideas?" A deputy detachment leader understood Wei Ju's expression and asked directly for Wei Ju.

Article 76, paragraph 4 of the 1979 Criminal Law also stipulates that if after 20 years, if it is deemed necessary to prosecute, it may be reported to the Supreme People's Procuratorate for approval. Bai Song looked at Director Wei with burning eyes.

Wei Ju didn't have any additional feelings for this gaze: "Okay, investigate the case first, if it is determined that it is a homicide, and it is a tragic case like the death of several people, I will tell the leader about this matter." ”

...

The Wei Bureau naturally knew the difficulty of this case.

However, if this case can be solved, and a case that has passed the prosecution period is found out and dealt with, then this matter will definitely have a greater impact than the counterfeit money case!

The Municipal Criminal Investigation Corps is still afraid that the matter will become bigger? The Wei Bureau is eager for CCTV to report on it.

"By the way, Bai Song, Wang Huadong, it is best for you to act cheaply in the near future, personal safety needs to be guaranteed, and tell me if there is anything in time. The Wei Bureau instructed a few words, and then began to hold a meeting, conveying the spirit of the instructions of the City Bureau.

After the meeting, the Li detachment also shook hands with Bai Song, and pointed out that if he needed help, he would say it directly.

...

"These people are hypocritical. Wang Liang saw that there was no one, so he hurriedly scolded. He had been holding back for a long time.

"Well, we're not kids. Sun Jie slapped Wang Liang's shoulder: "Let's rest first, Zheng Yanwu's case, no matter how anxious it is, it has been delayed for more than 20 years." ”

"Well, it is estimated that the Wei Bureau will have to ask for instructions, but now everyone is busy with the counterfeit money case, it is estimated that there will be reporters to interview in a few days, we will rest first in the next few days, and when the leaders begin to consider this case, we will definitely have to go on a business trip to southern Xiangnan." Bai Song said.

In the past few years, Bai Song has seen so many big cases, and he is not the frizzy boy he used to be, so he will not have to rush to Xiangnan desperately when he sees this case, and if there is no other supporting work, he will go to equal to 0.

And everyone is so tired.

At night, Bai Song did not leave the city bureau, but rested here.

These days, there are so many things that need to be considered.

It was so late, and Bai Song didn't organize everyone to go out for dinner. One is to think about safety, he should try to get into as little trouble as possible, and the other is to consider what others say. Now many people are still busy with cases, their rest is specially approved by the leader, and it is okay to rest, but when they go out to eat with a swagger, it is inevitable that someone will say something.

There are still quite a lot of dormitories here, one for Bai Song and Team Liu, and one for the other four people.

Liu Shuyuan didn't know what to do tonight, not here, Bai Song and the three brothers rested in the same room, and everyone chatted a few words, but after a while, they all fell asleep.

Everyone slept, but Bai Song's mood fluctuated, and he didn't know what to think.

At this time, the mobile phone received a message, and Bai Song glanced at it, it was sent by Xinqiao.

"I'll leave for The Hague tomorrow, have you rested?"

"Nope. ”

"I just saw your message, you said you caught everyone, are you still busy?"

"I'm not busy. ”

"Okay, let's see you on video. ”

Bai Song was in a better mood inexplicably and opened the video.

"Auntie?" Bai Song was stunned for a moment, and the people opposite were Zhao Xinqiao and her mother.

It seems that Xinqiao is going to travel far away, and her mother is still not very relieved, so she came over today to help prepare the luggage for going out.

"What's going on with your head?" Zhao Xinqiao leaned in front of the screen: "It's so dazzling, hahaha..."
