Chapter 462: Guilt is inescapable

After the Spring Festival, the Hong Kong police formally prosecuted Zheng Ganlin to the court, and the prosecution case included that in addition to Zhang Manyu's threat with a gun, Zheng Ganlin had killed four women in May 1986, August 1986, March 1987 and September 1988, although the female officer killed Zhang, Zhao, Wang and Li, according to the confession of Zheng Ganlin's subordinates, the police found the bodies of the four murdered women in the mountains near Tseung Kwan O, but near the burial site, the police found 12 bodies one after another. It's just that because of the long time of burial, the remains have long been completely decomposed, and some even have only bones left, and Zheng Ganlin's subordinates are also unclear about the origin of these remains, in the absence of identification, the police investigation is in a difficult situation, the only information that can be ascertained is that there are men and women in these bodies, and they are not very old. In desperation, the police could only dispose of these bodies in another case.

In addition, Zheng Ganlin secretly smuggled and sold a total of more than 2oo kilograms of heroin since 198o, and the most direct evidence is that a total of 7 kilograms of heroin and a large number of other drugs were found in Zheng Ganlin's three residences and a secret gang stronghold.

Because there is no correlation between the various cases, because the court has adopted the method of separate trials, and in these cases, Zhang Manyu's threat with a gun is undoubtedly the least serious, and it is also the flashpoint of other cases, so it was placed in the first trial.

The trial is not public, except for the immediate family, no one else is allowed to enter the courtroom, the purpose of this is naturally to protect Zhang Manyu's ** rights, but outside the courtroom, a large number of reporters and a large number of Zhang Manyu's fans gathered.

Inside the courtroom. Zhang Manyu completely recounted the process from being kidnapped to being released, without any omissions, and then at the request of Zhang Manyu's lawyer, Zhong Liming. The court called the first witness, Zhao Yuande, president of Dong'an Film Company. That's right, the lawyer team of Tang Dynasty Holdings is responsible for fighting the lawsuit against Zhang Manyu, and the lawyer Xi of the lawyer group is still Zhong Liming, who performed well in the previous case against Ni Zhen and "Entertainment New Weekly" for infringing on the right to reputation, and was deeply appreciated by Gu Chen.

Zhong Liming got up and walked in front of Zhao Yuande, smiled faintly, and asked, "I heard that Mr. Zhao is a graduate student of Hong Kong Chinese University, and he can be regarded as a top student in terms of diplomas." Can you tell us a little bit about how you became the president of Dongan Film Company? ”

Zhao Yuande glanced at Zheng Ganlin, who was detained in the dock surrounded by guardrails. The other party's gloomy gaze frightened him, but he still spoke: "I graduated from Hong Kong Chinese University in the middle of last year, and I saw in the newspaper that Dongan Film Company was recruiting an executive president, so I applied for it. The application process was very smooth. At first, I didn't know that the owner of Dong'an Film Company had an underworld background, and then I gradually realized it, but when I was about to resign, Zheng Ganlin threatened me that if I dared to resign, he would kill my whole family. ”

"You're lying. When did Lao Tzu say that he was going to kill your whole family? Zhao Yuande's voice just fell. Zheng Ganlin roared angrily.

"Bang bang, silence, silence." The judge picked up the hammer and struck it three times: "Zheng Ganlin, if you are not quiet, this judge will punish you for the crime of roaring the court." ”

Zhong Liming smiled slightly, he didn't care if what Zhao Yuande said was true or not, as long as it was beneficial to the case: "Very good, according to your confession to the police and Miss Zhang's statement just now, you participated in the whole process of the kidnapping incident, please tell me the cause and process of the incident." ”

"Dong'an Film Company was established in August last year. By November, a total of two films had been made, although these two films did not lose money. But there is almost no profit, and the income and expenditure are flat, so Zheng Ganlin plans to shoot a third-level film, in order for the film to have a sensational effect, he put the heroine's goal on the first-line female stars in the entertainment industry, and after screening, he finally chose Zhang Manyu ......"

What Zhao Yuande said next was basically similar to what Zhang Manyu said, but he put himself in the position of a spectator, not a participant.

After Zhao Yuande finished speaking, Zhong Liming took out a copy of the text: "Your Excellency Judge and the jury, this is the contract that Zhao Yuande just said that he drew up under the instruction of Zheng Ganlin, and Miss Zhang's salary in the contract is 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is a hundred times different from the salary that Miss Zhang actually deserves; In addition, there is no description of the type and scale of the film in the contract, only the name of the film, and according to the management of the film industry, the film information must be written in this kind of contract, Miss Zhang has debuted for 5 years, and has starred in dozens of movies and TV series, so it is impossible not to even understand this. Therefore, from these two points, it can be seen that before signing this contract, Zheng Ganlin used coercion, even intimidation and other violent means against my client, Miss Zhang Manyu. ”

Several copies of the contract were forwarded to the judge and the jury, and then Zhong Liming said, "Your Excellency, my question is finished. ”

The judge nodded and looked at Zheng Ganlin's lawyer: "Defendant lawyer, do you have any questions you would like to ask the witness Zhao Yuande?" ”

Zheng Ganlin's lawyer stood up, only to see that his brows were slightly furrowed, obviously very pessimistic about the form, just because all the evidence was very unfavorable to Zheng Ganlin: "Mr. Zhao, I have a question for you, you said that my client has an underworld background, do you have any evidence?" ”

Zhao Yuande was speechless for a while, and only said after a while: "No, but I have seen Zheng Ganlin call a lot of people to beat ......."

Zheng Ganlin's lawyer didn't wait for Zhao Yuande to finish speaking, and then interrupted: "That is to say, you have no evidence, you said that my client has an underworld background is completely your personal subjective speculation, Your Excellency, Zhao Yuande's testimony obviously has a strict subjective tendency, and I request that it not be accepted." ”

"Against." Zhong Liming immediately got up: "Your Excellency, whether Zheng Ganlin has an underworld background is not Zhao Yuande's subjective thoughts, but the illegal acts he committed, facts have proved that Zheng Ganlin is indeed engaged in illegal activities, it is reported that when the police were collecting evidence in this case, they found two pistols, 5o bullets and 8o grams of sea-loin from Zheng Ganlin's residence on the spot. ”

Following Zhong Liming's words, the two bailiffs submitted three unwarranted documents: "Let's not talk about how the defendant Zheng Ganlin came to be and what he used it for, just 8o grams of heroin has exceeded the amount of personal consumption." In addition, during the subsequent police investigation, 7 kilograms of heroin and a large amount of other drugs were recovered from several other residences of Zheng Ganlin and a nightclub** believed to be under the protection of Zheng Ganlin, although this part of the crime belonged to a separate case. But this can prove that Zheng Ganlin does have an underworld background. ”

The judge looked at several pieces of physical evidence presented, nodded, and said, "The plaintiff's lawyer's objection is valid, and the defendant's lawyer can continue." ”

Zheng Ganlin's lawyer was a little helpless: "I have a second question I want to ask you, you said that it was up to my client to decide from the formulation and shooting of the third-level film to the determination of Miss Zhang Manyu as the heroine, how can you prove that as the president of the company, you did not have any involvement, or that the whole thing was planned by you from beginning to end, and my client is just a passive executor." ”

"No, this matter has nothing to do with me, except for the contract that I drafted according to Zheng Ganlin's intentions, I didn't participate in the rest at all."

"Against." Zhong Liming got up again: "From Miss Zhang Manyu's explanation of the whole matter just now, it can be seen that Miss Zhang was able to be safe and sound in the end, and Zhao Yuande timely proved that Miss Zhang's close personal friendship with Mr. Gu is inseparable, so Zhao Yuande did not mean to hurt Miss Zhang, since Zhao Yuande did not mean to hurt Miss Zhang, then how could the incident be planned by him." ”

"Oppose, Zhao Yuande did not mean to hurt Miss Zhang Manyu, and there is no direct logical relationship between the two and whether the incident was planned by him."

"The defendant's lawyer objected to invalidity." The judge's words made Zheng Ganlin's lawyer's face change, and his objection was based on reason, but the judge turned a blind eye and clearly favored the plaintiff's side, he looked up at the plaintiff's lawyer, and the other party smiled at him.

It's not that he's pessimistic, it's not that he doesn't have professional ethics, from the very beginning of this case, the outcome has been determined, even if there is no pressure from Gu Chen, the pressure of public opinion in society does not allow the Hong Kong judiciary to let Zheng Ganlin go, not to mention that there is still human and material evidence.

"Lawyer for the defendant, is there anything else you'd like to ask?"

At this moment, Zheng Ganlin, perhaps thinking that he was guilty, laughed arrogantly: "Hahaha...... After the trial, the thing was done by Lao Tzu, I only hate that Lao Tzu didn't rape her when he was soft, otherwise he could taste the taste of a big star......"

Zhang Manyu, who was sitting in the plaintiff's seat, listened to Zheng Ganlin's crazy shouts, her face suddenly changed greatly, and her face gradually turned pale when she thought of the thrill of the day. Zheng Ganlin's lawyer was also shocked, knowing that there are two more strict criminal cases to be tried in the future, Zheng Ganlin's bad attitude will definitely leave an extremely negative impression on the judge and the jury, and then affect the final result.

Not only Zhang Manyu and Zheng Ganlin's lawyers, but almost everyone in the courtroom changed their faces in an instant, and it is estimated that the judge and the jury have seen such an arrogant criminal for the first time. Only Zhang Manyu's legal team, especially Zhong Liming, showed a smile instead.

Now, the victory has been decided, and with Zheng Ganlin's arrogant and bad attitude, the judge and the jury will definitely increase the punishment when sentencing, if several other cases are also established, Zheng Ganlin estimates that even if he sits through the prison this time, he will not think of it.
