Chapter 579: The Truth Revealed
Chapter 579: The Truth Is Revealed
It is true that the Pengyu case was formally tried yesterday in the first civil division of the Fengyuan City Intermediate Court
In court, Li Cheng, the lawyer who defended Peng Yu, showed six photos to the public: "Dear judge, comrade jurors, I have six photos here to prove that the plaintiff Xu Zhengxiong lied about this matter"
The six photographs that Mr. Li showed to the judge and members of the public who were watching showed that Mr. Xu did not fall into the lake because he was pushed by the rain. Because judging from the photos, when Xu Zhengxiong fell into the lake, there was no one else within one meter of him, let alone Peng Yu.
In the second photo, you can clearly see that Xu Zhengxiong is struggling in the water, and Peng Yu only ran over from a distance at this time.
In the third photo, someone on the shore of the lake is shouting for help, and Peng Yu is trying to hold Xu Zhengxiong in the water. These three photos were taken from a distance, and the physiognomy of the people is not very clear. The remaining three photos are all recent photos of Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu coming ashore. Judging from the photos, you can clearly see the appearance of Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu. Judging from the time on the photo, it is also the time when Xu Zhengxiong fell into the water.
"Judge, I don't think it's enough to conclude that my client lied based on these six photos alone." He Zeng, the lawyer entrusted by Xu Zhengxiong, immediately retorted, "I believe everyone has noticed that among the six photos, the last three photos are relatively clear, and everyone can confirm that these two people are indeed the parties to this case, but the first three photos do not prove that the people inside are the parties to this case." You can see that whether it is the person who fell into the lake, the person who went into the water to save people, and the person who helped on the shore, the faces are quite blurred. Therefore, I don't think it is certain that the two people in it are the parties to this case based on these three photos alone, and as we all know, the time of the camera can be adjusted," although he did not explicitly point it out, but his attitude that the first three photos were suspected of being forged was revealed.
Li Cheng smiled slightly and said, "Lawyer He, that is, you have already admitted it?" ”
He Zeng glanced at Xu Zhengxiong, who was stunned beside him, he wanted to say that even the last three photos were fake, but these three photos were taken very clearly, and it was obvious that the owner of the camera had come to Xu Zhengxiong and them. Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu's faces were very clear, and he couldn't talk nonsense with his eyes open. What's more, in this era, there is no PSjishu yet.
He Zeng sighed in his heart and said: "Yes, we admit that the two people in the last three photos are the parties to this case, Mr. Peng Yu and Mr. Xu Zhengxiong."
"You can admit it," Li Cheng confidently picked up another piece of paper from the table and said, "Judge, this is a photo identification certificate issued by the Provincial Police Department, which proves that these six photos were taken by the same camera in the same day, with a difference of less than fifteen minutes. The six photographs are from the same set of negatives, and there is no falsification in the order of the photos, if lawyer He Zeng does not believe it, he can ask the Jishu department of the Ministry of Police to re-evaluate."
He Zeng vomited blood, Li Cheng said it is really simple, it seems that the jishu department of the police department issued an appraisal certificate like buying cabbage in the market, not to mention that he does not have the ability to send these photos to the jishu department of the police department for re-identification, that is, when the time comes, it is still unknown whether the police department will overturn the appraisal results of the provincial department.
With the identification certificate issued by the Jishu Department of the Qinxi Provincial Police Department, it can be said that the two people in the first three photos have been bitten to death, which are Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu. Because since these six photographs are from the same set of negatives, and they were taken within fifteen minutes on the same day, and the order of the photographs is determined, the possibility of forgery is basically blocked. Because even Xu Zhengxiong himself couldn't have predicted that he would fall into the lake, right? Naturally, it is impossible for others to fake photos of the scene in advance.
"Silence, silence," the judge slapped the table and said loudly.
"Lawyer Li Cheng, where do these six photos come from? Weishenme did not show it to the court at the time of the first trial," He Zeng asked loudly.
Li Cheng said with a smile: "These six photos are from a photographer comrade, who was also filmed in the park that day, and happened to capture the scene of Mr. Xu Zhengxiong falling into the water. As for Lawyer He's question, when Weishenme was in the first instance, we didn't show it to the court, the reason is very simple, because at that time, we didn't get these six photos, let alone know that these six photos existed. Just seven days ago, after going abroad for nearly two months on business, this comrade, who had just returned from abroad, learned the news from the media and sent these six photos to my client. ”
He Zeng asked: "Lawyer Li, shouldn't Weishenme tell his name and work unit in public, and ask him to testify in court?" ”
Li Cheng still said with a smile on his face: "Lawyer He, first, I think the current evidence is enough to show that my client, Mr. Peng Yu, in this case, not only has no fault, but also has kindness to Mr. Xu Zhengxiong, if he hadn't jumped into the water in time to rescue Mr. Xu Zhengxiong ashore, Mr. Xu Zhengxiong may not only have a broken leg, but also worry about his life, Mr. Xu Zhengxiong insisted that it was my client who pushed him into the water afterwards, which is an act ......of revenge."
"Judge, I protest that the opposing lawyer is deliberately exaggerating the big things and misleading the court with practical words," He Zeng stood up and protested.
Li Cheng dismissively continued with his protests: "Second, we believe that these six photos are enough to determine that Mr. Peng Yu acted bravely in this incident, and not as Mr. Xu Zhengxiong said, in order to make up for his negligence after pushing him into the lake. If the court finally acquits Mr. Peng Yu, the gentleman who provided these six photos will receive a reward of 300,000 yuan from Carrefour Supermarket......" The people in the court were all exclaimed, and no one could hear Li Cheng's words clearly.
"Silence, silence," the judge slapped the table again and said loudly.
If the court finally acquits Mr. Peng Yu, the gentleman who provided the six photos will receive a reward of 300,000 yuan from Carrefour Supermarket. This gentleman is very worried, Mr. Xu Zhengxiong, as a retired state official, enjoys the state's medical security, and for tens of thousands of yuan, he does not hesitate to take revenge on his life-saving benefactor, and he has taken a bonus of 300,000 yuan. So when he got these photos, he made a request, that is, he would never admit in public that these photos were provided by him. If the court thinks that his testimony is still needed, I have here his own written testimony. If the court still doesn't believe it, it can verify his testimony in person in private. We believe that this gentleman's request is reasonable, so I cannot give his name and place of work here, nor can I let him testify in court. Li Cheng's remarks caused another uproar in the courtroom.
While people are surprised and envious, they also have to admit that this person is very smart, and it is necessary to do so in order to protect their own safety. Of course, everyone is also envious, Carrefour supermarket for its own employees, is really benevolent and righteous, even if Peng Yu is a middle-level cadre, but the 300,000 yuan bounty, how young he can create for Carrefour supermarket, not to mention that this is just a joint venture, even those state-owned enterprises, and may not pay such a big price for the innocence of their employees.
"I have submitted his information to the court, and I believe that the court will not disclose his personal information," Li Cheng said to He Zeng.
"I protest that we will not be able to question the witness in court to determine whether he is lying," He Zeng exclaimed. Seeing that this lawsuit is a mess, of course he can't let go of this zuihou straw. As for how much trouble this witness will have after he appears in court, it is not a question that he needs to consider.
"I think that under the current circumstances where the evidence is sufficient to prove the truth of the case, there is no need for him to testify in court at all," Li Cheng retorted-for-tat, "If lawyer He has any questions, you can ask the judge to temporarily ask the people who are watching to withdraw, and you can ask in court." ”
"Since it is a public trial, why bother with this move" He Zeng said unwaveringly. He can only hope now that the witness refuses to testify in court for fear of the trouble that may occur after his identity is revealed, so this matter still has to be contested, otherwise, his side has no chance of winning.
"This is not an overkill, but for the sake of protecting the safety of witnesses. If the witnesses can't even guarantee their own safety, who will want to testify in court in the future? I think such a simple truth, Lawyer He will not understand, right? Li Cheng retorted.
The two men engaged in a heated debate in court on the protection of witnesses, which entertained the audience and eventually the judge forced them to stop.
In the end, the First Civil Division of the Fengyuan Intermediate People's Court formally pronounced the verdict, ruling that Peng Yu did not bear any civil liability in this case, confirming his righteous and courageous behavior and ruling at the same time, Xu Zhengxiong lost the lawsuit, not only to bear all the litigation costs, but also to apologize to Peng Yu in court and limit him to ten days, he must publicly apologize to Peng Yu in the provincial newspaper of Qinxi Province to restore Peng Yu's reputation.
It can be said that the truth of the Pengyu case has been revealed
