Chapter Seventy-Five: A Counterattack
After Secretary Du received a call from the old chief, he learned that Secretary Bai would come to Tiannan Province tomorrow for investigation, and finally decided to start taking action.
Originally, in order not to alarm Lei Yiming and prevent him from detecting the intention of the provincial party committee to move him, Secretary Du kept suppressing the report of the provincial newspaper and the provincial television station on the murder case of Wu Shui's shooting, but let the central newspapers and television first expose the inside story, knocking and banging thunder from the outside, forcing him to jump from behind the scenes to the front desk.
Judging from the current situation, this effect has been achieved: Lei Yiming really couldn't hold his breath, and created a case of death in a brawl in the detention center, and stupidly publicized the two cases across the country to create public opinion, and thought he had a plan!
Who knows, in Secretary Du's opinion, Lei Yiming's move is tantamount to digging his own grave!
Because he didn't take it into account at all: his uncompetitive son, in Mingguang City and Wushui County, can be said to be notorious. Once public opinion is created, reporters from all over the world flock to Wushui and Mingguang City to interview those insiders and ordinary people, and his son's stinky things will be shaken out little by little, and he can't cover it up even if he wants to.
In Secretary Du's view, the most beneficial point for himself is that Lei Yiming is so wanton in creating public opinion, which will inevitably attract the attention of the old chief and Secretary Bai. And these two people can be said to have a deep relationship with Sneer.
Especially the old chief, his life was saved by Sneer Xiaotian, and now that Sneer Xiaotian is in such big trouble, he will definitely not sit idly by, and will definitely try his best to find out the truth of the matter. Once he learned that this was Lei Yiming and others wronging and framing Leng Xiaotian, with his temper and prestige, if he wanted to pinch a Lei Yiming to death, it would really be similar to pinching an ant to death!
In this way, as the secretary of the provincial party committee, he has saved a lot of things: with the support of the old chief and Secretary Bai, who would dare to say nothing about Lei Yiming? It is estimated that his former secretary of the provincial party committee and current vice premier will not dare to come out and say half a word for Lei Yiming......
With this judgment, Secretary Bai finally made up his mind and said to the secretary Xiao Su: "You call Comrade Li Yunshan of the Public Security Department and ask him and several deputy directors to come to my office at three o'clock in the afternoon and talk to them about important matters." ”
After Xiao Su went out, he dialed the phone number of Secretary Bai's office again, and after learning from his secretary that Secretary Bai would definitely come to Tiannan tomorrow, he personally called the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the chief prosecutor of the Provincial Procuratorate, telling them that there was an important meeting tomorrow and that they should stay in the office and be on call at any time.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yunshan, director of the Provincial Public Security Department, came to Secretary Du's office on time with several deputy directors.
After Secretary Du waited for them to sit down, he asked straight to the point with a straight face: "Do any of you know about the case of Wu Shui shooting and killing Deputy Director Lei Fang?"
Li Yunshan and the others didn't know what happened to Secretary Du who suddenly summoned them, and as soon as they heard him ask about this case as soon as he opened his mouth, they were a little nervous, and several people nodded subconsciously.
Secretary Du glanced at them and continued to ask, "So, have any of you personally gone to Wushui to investigate?"
Li Yunshan and the others looked at each other, and they didn't dare to answer.
Secretary Du suddenly raised his voice: "None of you have paid enough attention to this case, have you? As far as I know, this case has a complicated background, and there are cases within cases, involving serious problems such as judicial corruption, official corruption, abuse of power, bending the law for personal gain, and oppressing the people. Lei Fang, the victim of the Wu Shui gun case, is a perpetrator from another angle, and he is also the culprit and initiator of this incident! He has relied on the power of his Lao Tzu to exert power and fortune in Mingguang City and Wushui County for many years, and it is said that there are many people who have sued him. On the contrary, if you know about it, and you don't deal with it, or even deliberately protect it, it will be even more serious in nature, and it is a typical dereliction of duty!"
Secretary Du's fierce reprimand made Li Yunshan and the others speechless, and cold sweat broke out.
After a long time, Li Yunshan weakly defended himself and said: "Secretary Du, we sincerely accept your criticism, and we will definitely go back to reflect on it, and strive to prevent similar phenomena in future work." However, I would like to say a few words about the release of mines. You should know: Lei Fang is the only son of Lei Yiming, secretary of the Mingguang Municipal Party Committee, and Lei Yiming has a good relationship with the original Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Song, which is a well-known thing in Tiannan officialdom. I do not deny that we have received reports from the masses on many occasions about such problems as Lei Fang's domineering style, corruption in life, and even involvement in organized crime and drugs. However, after all, our provincial department is separated from the Wushui County Public Security Bureau, and he is the deputy director of a county bureau. And the Mingguang City Public Security Bureau did not dare to deal with him publicly because of his father Lei Yiming's face. So, his problem has been dragging on until now. Our provincial department does have something unspeakable, please understand, Secretary Du!"
Secretary Du half-squinted and listened to him finish speaking, and then asked: "Let me ask you another question: You are all veteran police officers who have been in the police for many years, when have you ever seen a case that is still in the investigation stage, and the criminal facts, criminal evidence, and photos of the suspect in the case have been published in the major media and websites at the central level? Is this situation normal?"
Li Yunshan and a few others who had not yet had time to see the report on Seng Xiaotian's case were taken aback when they heard Secretary Du's words, and hurriedly asked: "Secretary Du, this is a serious violation of discipline! Who is so bold as to dare to do this?"
Secretary Du took a copy of "Huaxia Legal Daily" from his desk, threw it to Li Yunshan, and said: "You can see for yourself! If you haven't enjoyed it, there is still the same news on several major web portals." You can take a good look at it when you go back, this time the Wushui Public Security Bureau is famous all over the country!"
Li Yunshan skimmed the contents of the newspaper a little, and his face became more and more ugly......
After returning to the Public Security Department after coming out of Secretary Du's office, Li Yunshan immediately convened a meeting of the party group of the Public Security Department, at which three resolutions were made: First, Qin Yimin, secretary of the party committee and director of the Mingguang City Public Security Bureau, should be immediately removed from his posts inside and outside the party, and Yao Wenjun, head of the provincial public security corps, would temporarily act as secretary of the Mingguang City Party committee and director of the bureau. After Yao Wenjun takes office, he should immediately convene a party committee of the city bureau to dismiss Xu Guangyuan, secretary of the party committee and director of the Wushui County Public Security Bureau; second, the provincial department should immediately set up a "special case group for the Wushui shooting murder case and the case of a person killed by a brawl in the detention center," headed by Wu Guanghui, executive deputy director of the provincial department, and select and transfer criminal investigators from the provincial department. Third, the political department of the provincial department came forward to coordinate with the newspapers and websites that had published the news of Sneer Xiaotian's murder, and clearly told them that the case was still in the investigation stage, and that there was no final conclusion on whether Sneer Xiaotian had killed someone, and that they were required to publish a statement in the newspaper to eliminate the impact, and that the website should delete the relevant news and posts......
At the same time as the meeting of the Public Security Department, Secretary Du made a phone call to Hong Yan, director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, and asked him to inform the Provincial Newspaper and the Provincial Television Station that tonight they should simultaneously publish the report on the investigation of the truth about the murder of Wu Shui sent back by the reporter they sent to Wushui, and that the report should be highlighted in prime time and in a prominent position......
At five o'clock in the evening, Li Yunshan, director of the Public Security Department, called Secretary Du to report that the provincial department had made a decision to dismiss the directors of the Mingguang City Public Security Bureau and the Wushui County Public Security Bureau, and set up a special case team for the Wu Shui shooting murder case, and had rushed to Wushui to handle the case. However, they have encountered trouble in eliminating the reports on the sneering day murder in the newspapers and on the Internet: these central-level newspapers and web portals have completely disdained the demands made by the political department of the small Tiannan Provincial Public Security Department, saying that their reports are all stamped with the official seal of the local public security bureau where the crime occurred, and there is no problem of erroneous reporting and eliminating the impact, so they insist on refusing to issue a correction statement and refuse to delete the news and posts on the Internet.
Secretary Du was noncommittal about the measures he had reported earlier, and when he heard the last question, he said: "Comrade Yunshan, I have anticipated this difficulty of yours and am thinking of solving it. You don't have to worry about that. As long as you wholeheartedly urge the special case team to investigate the case thoroughly, dig out the real criminals, and uncover the shady curtain of this case, okay?"
Li Yunshan agreed again and again on the other end of the phone.
Next, Secretary Du called Secretary Bai and asked him to help coordinate those large newspapers and major websites at the central level, and asked them to immediately publish a correction statement and delete those reports and photos about Sneer's murder.
Secretary Bai had long considered that the negative impact of those reports with names, surnames and photos on Leng Xiaotian was too great, and when Secretary Du said this, he instructed his secretary to call the CEOs of these newspapers and websites in the name of Bai Ban, asking them why they were so rash in reporting a report that was still in the investigation stage, and ordered them to correct it immediately.
The CEOs of these big newspapers and big websites are usually very cowy. This time, they were entrusted by the former secretary of the provincial party committee of Tiannan Province and the current vice premier of the cabinet to publish a report on the murder of the sneering sky, and they did not regard it as a major event, so when the Political Department of the Tiannan Provincial Public Security Department called them to ask them to correct their mistakes, they all scoffed at them and rejected them outright.
However, immediately afterward, they received another call from Secretary Bai's office. When they heard Secretary Bai scolding them sternly on the phone why they published such a report, these empty-eyed CEOs panicked and became nervous: If they were targeted by Secretary Bai, the famous "iron bread man", because of such a thing, it would be a big loss!
As a result, that night, all the reports and posts on major websites about the Sneer Day murder case disappeared. The next day, the same newspapers published the same news, and they also published corrections and apologies!
