Chapter 117: Supervising Self-Theft
At that time, I was like I had fallen for evil, and I wanted to handle more cases and arrest more people.
Every day I come into contact with all kinds of dark sides, and my heart becomes cold.
At the beginning, in the face of the painful and sad eyes of these parents, there will always be a sympathy and helpless thought in my heart, and slowly this thought is replaced by responsibility and mission.
The crews of the four transport ships in Changsha gave clues about the violation of the law from the public security organs in other places.
At the request of the director, I was fully involved in the investigation and handling of this case, which also changed the fate of these four people. I've always thought so.
After Shen Guoxing had breakfast, he handed me the existing case file to read.
At that time, everyone recognized that I was a master at handling case materials, because there were already many cases out there.
The cover of the case file was signed by the Port Branch of the Ningbo Municipal Public Security Bureau.
There are not many materials in it, including a report by the cargo owner about the lack of five bags of rice delivered for transportation, as well as a transcript of the interrogation of the four crew members, and an official document issued by the port public security department requesting that the transfer to the police station where the ship's household registration port is located for processing.
A ship is a land that flows at sea.
Every ship, like every household on land, has a ship household registration book, which records in detail the ship's name, category, tonnage, port of registry, crew list and other information.
Each item has a very strict and complex classification, even the shape of the ship, such as the pointed head, the figure-of-eight and so on, are very specific.
I remember that there is a ship type called "green eyebrows", which is the most popular type of ship in the early days, and it is also the main ship type when Zheng He went to the Western Ocean.
Those messages are all memorized by the brain, unlike all kinds of data that can be found by casually flipping through the mobile phone now.
The navigation of ships is strictly regulated.
All types of ships belong to different management departments, and each department has different responsibilities for all types of ships.
Border departments at all levels are the functional departments of the public security organs for the management of ships and maritime security.
Every ship entering and leaving the port has to be declared by the border department, which means that their movements are under our control.
The Ningbo Port Public Security Department has its own reasons for transferring this matter to the police station of our home port to deal with it.
I carefully read the contents of the case file, and the process was very simple: the ship loaded rice from Shipu Port to Ningbo Port. The owner of the goods was missing five bags of rice when he unloaded and counted, and immediately reported the case. After interrogation, the four crew members confessed that they took advantage of the ship to pass through the door, and each of them carried a bag back to their homes, and the other bag was left on the ship to eat together.
After reading the case file, I thought about it for a long time, and I felt that there was a lot to be done here.
Because we also have transport boats in our village, my eldest brother used to disembark for many years. Sometimes I would bring half a bag of rice or a few catties of coal home, saying that it was damaged during loading and unloading.
I was thinking that if they had the audacity to "take" five bags of rice at once, then they would definitely do something else.
After a short battle, it was as I expected.
The four crew members were brought to the station by the village cadres, and they watched them give up their things one by one. I think they must have colluded to deal with it, and only five bags of rice can't make a big deal.
Before the interrogation, Shen Guoxing convened everyone to introduce the clues they had and divided labor.
Shen Guoxing asked me to form a team with him and interrogate the ship boss. Wang Dongjian, Zhong Zhiguo, and Ren Songping each led a group to interrogate the three crew members.
Shen Guoxing asked me if I had anything to say. I added: "The five-bag rice thing already has ready-made materials, just go after a while, the focus is on digging deeper, they must be more than this one." ”
At first, all four of them bit very tightly.
The eldest of our interrogation is surnamed Xia, 38 years old, married and has children, and seems to be quite clever. The matter of the five bags of rice was explained very simply.
Shen Guoxing was more polite and took the initiative to ask him to make a record. According to the general rules, those with low positions should take notes, and those with high positions should be questioned.
"Why did you take four bags of rice home?"
I didn't use the word "steal", I used the word "take", and I really couldn't figure out what it was.
They are the transporters of the rice, but also the temporary custodians, more like embezzlement.
"The boat happened to pass by the door and brought a bag home."
"Aren't you afraid of being discovered by the shipper?"
"Sometimes they count, sometimes they don't."
"Have you taken it before?"
"Nope!"
"Think about it again?"
"Not really. There is a little sweep of the leakage, but there is no whole bag. ”
"What else do you usually pack?"
"It's mostly rice and coal."
"Anything else?"
"I don't remember much."
I felt that it was a bit difficult to break through this matter with the ship boss, and it was almost time to eat, so I didn't continue to ask.
In order to prevent them from colluding confessions, and at the same time exerting psychological pressure on them, the four people were placed in four places.
After the meal, I read the transcripts of all four people.
There was a crew member surnamed Wang, the oldest, nearly 50 years old, who confessed that he had once dug up rice and used it as food on the ship.
I think this is the one who is most likely to open the gap.
"At your age, you have to think about your family and strive for leniency."
"What you do together can't be saved, whoever says it first will go home first."
"It's the New Year soon, whether you want to go home or not, whether you can go back for the New Year, it's up to you to fight for it."
As soon as the afternoon interrogation began, I launched an offensive against the crew surnamed Wang.
Seeing that he was still hesitating, I continued to add:
"You're not the boss of the ship, so why do you have to take this responsibility for him and carry the official materials to your own home?"
"You don't have anything else to do, I let you go back a long time ago, are we so free?"
I was observing the changes in his expression while carrying out the policy offensive, but in fact, in this environment, the psychological changes of people are written on their faces.
"There's a play!"
I know for sure.
It didn't take long for him to begin to confess.
"Another time I took a circle of steel."
"Tell me more about it."
He said it from beginning to end.
"Go on."
His expression became very nervous, as if he could not sit still.
"If you don't explain it all, you just resist, and we have already told you the consequences."
As I pressed it, he began to explain twice more about moving some of the timber in transit home.
With his breakthrough there, I was very excited, and when I informed Shen Guoxing of this situation, he was also very excited.
We discussed letting the captain of the ship go first, and finding two other crew members to further verify and expand the results.
Soon confessed these two incidents, and also confessed several small things.
In the evening, we concentrated our efforts on dealing with the captain of the ship, interrogated them until late at night, and basically asked them about the eight big and small things they had done.
The next day, at the request of the director, Shen Guoxing and I took all the materials to the county bureau to report, and an old comrade from the pre-trial unit characterized the case as "supervising self-theft," and that it was a crime committed by three or more people in partnership for many times, which should meet the characteristics of a "theft gang."
I've grown in knowledge again!
