Chapter 153: Whether Buying Is Equivalent to Abduction?
Since everyone's words fell at the same moment, in the silence of the gap, Bai Lu's family clearly heard the news report.
I happened to hear it, so I paid attention to it.
Host summary: In August 1996, Liu Hongxia of Yuncheng County took her five-year-old eldest son and one-and-a-half-year-old son to the provincial capital to find her husband Huang Chenggui, who was looking for a worker, when buying a ticket at the ticket window of the railway station, she put her youngest son on her body and sat on the ticket table, and the eldest son Huang Yongjin stood on the side.
The people at the back said they didn't pay attention, and the people at the back said that it seemed that a woman had just walked by with a child in her arms, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
Liu Hongxia called the police at the train station, and found the police in the middle of the night to no avail, and in the collapse she could only accept the fact that her five-year-old eldest son was abducted.
It's nineteen years.
When Liu Hongxia's family watched a program called "Looking for Relatives", they saw a twenty-four-five-year-old young man looking for relatives, and some of the situations described were very similar to those back then, so the family contacted the program team with the mentality of trying, and God had mercy, the man who was looking for relatives was the eldest son Huang Yongjin, who disappeared nineteen years ago.
The news switched to the scene of a family reunited after 19 years of separation, hugging their heads and crying, and the listeners wept.
Bai Ma looked at it and sighed, after so many years, it is really not easy to find her biological parents!
Dad Bai looked at it more far-reaching, saying that the boy's adoptive parents must be good to him.
Sure enough, the man said that he seemed to have been resold twice, and was later adopted by his current adoptive parents, whose adoptive parents have been married for many years and have no children and no daughters, so it is still very good to him, for him to study until he graduated from junior college, and he has not stopped him from looking for his biological parents in the past two years.
Bai Lu turned her head, Dad, you are right.
However, there is a question, if the traffickers who abduct and sell women and children break the law, are the people who buy them, the adoptive parents, also legally responsible?
At the news, the moderator and relevant legal and sociological experts began academic discussions.
In Bai Lu's usual life, he often sees "missing person notices" posted on the walls, street lamp poles, and cars, with photos of children on them, as well as screenshots of surveillance videos of children being taken away by abductors.
Even, there are many adults who have been abducted, some are young girls who have been deceived into being the wives of old bachelors, some are adult men who have been abducted to work as coolies in black kilns, and there are countless people who have been abducted to do pyramid schemes.
The news mentioned that some legal scholars believe that the current law is too light on buyers, and they call for amending the relevant laws to "convict" buyers and realize "the same crime of buying and selling", so as to effectively curb trafficking.
Bai Lu asked Bai's father, in the laws of our country, in the case of Huang Yongjin's adoptive parents, should they be sentenced?
Dad Bai put down his chopsticks, went to the bookcase to get the criminal code, put on the reading glasses on the coffee table, and read: Whoever buys abducted women and children shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance.
That doesn't seem to be serious.
"Where a woman or child who has been abducted or trafficked is purchased, and in accordance with the wishes of the purchased woman, does not hinder her return to her original place of residence, does not abuse the purchased child, and does not obstruct her rescue, criminal responsibility may not be pursued. ”
So, Huang Yongjin's adoptive parents have no legal responsibility?
Dad Bai continued: "Therefore, in judicial practice in various places, buyers who buy abducted children often do not have to bear legal responsibility. ”
"But the cries on the Internet all say that buying and selling are the same crime!" Bai Lu said.
After scooping up a spoonful of the lily in his stomach, Bai Dad said: "The reason why the law leaves an excuse for the purchase of abducted children is, on the one hand, that the buyers are regarded as "victims" to a certain extent, believing that they usually have no children and regard the children they buy as their own, but in the end they are "empty of both people and money"; on the other hand, out of consideration for rescuing the abducted children, they hope to guide the buyers to actively cooperate with the work of the public security organs through leniency, mitigation or exemption from punishment, so that the abducted children can return to their biological parents as soon as possible." ”
"That's a bit far-fetched. Bai Ma spoke up: "If our Xiaolu is abducted when she is a child, even if the other party gives me gold and silver, I can't accept it!"
"Mom, don't worry~ Your daughter has grown up and is past the age of being deceived by candy~" Bai Lu smiled: "However, if the other party really gives a whole mountain of gold, you really won't change it?"
Dad Bai snapped, closed the thick criminal code, and said, "Don't change!"
Bai Lu smiled, what adoptive parents, how can they be good for their own children~
Sociologists in the news pointed out: "It is precisely because of the law's "abuse" of buyers that it has caused connivance in trafficking. ”
Bai Lu nodded.
For example, a worldwide advertisement for the protection of rare animals circulated on the Internet, "No Sale, No Killing", with a picture of a baby elephant crying next to the carcass of an elephant whose tusks were forcibly removed, bleeding all over the ground, very cruel.
Similarly, in the crime of trafficking, it is "no harm without buying and selling".
She had seen a movie "Dear" before, where her biological father retrieved her abducted son, and her son's "adoptive mother" was crying on the side, although pitiful, she couldn't be soft-hearted, because the buyer is not only an important link in the criminal chain, but also the source of interest that directly gave rise to trafficking.
In terms of the disposal of "buyers", there is still a slight controversy in society, but in terms of human traffickers, it is much more uniform, and heavy fines must be imposed!
However, now that everyone has brought it up, the heavy penalty is still not enough!
Traffickers should be sentenced to death "directly!"
As a result, the newsroom turned to a new argument.
The Bai family ended the dinner happily without the disturbance of Ms. Orchid's family, Bai Lu actively raised her hand to say that she wanted to brush the dishes, at first Bai Ma felt that it was rare for her daughter to come back, so she didn't have to help, but Bai Lu insisted, this is the mother who Jinshan and Yinshan are unwilling to change, we are children, what is the tiredness of brushing a bowl~
There is no cheeky eating and drinking, no inexplicable blind dates, eating, chatting and doing housework, such a weekend is full and warm, and before you know it, it is Sunday afternoon.
Bai Lu still went back to the rental house with the five grains and beauty products prepared by Bai Ma as usual, and in other words, the red dates brought last week have not been unpacked.
Monday, nine a.m., testing center.
