"My son has been wronged! He's just gone, the white-haired man sends the black-haired man, how do we live? This is a lifelong heart disease! ”
Every time he mentioned his son Hugejiletu, Shang Aiyun couldn't cry, and he couldn't wait to go with his son. For 18 years, she washed her face with tears every day, firmly believing that her son was innocent, and her lifelong wish was to help rehabilitate her unjustly killed son.
The cemetery of Hugjiltu.
On April 9, 1996, an incident occurred in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, which shocked the whole country"Women's Toilet ** Homicide Case".。At just 18 years old, Hugejiltu became a major suspect and was charged with "homicide".
Sixty-two days later, Hugjiltu was executed, much to the delight of the populace. However, 9 years later, serial killersZhao ZhihongArrested.
In the 34-page transcript, he voluntarily admitted that he was the one who was back then“4.09 Women's Toilet Murder Case".The real murderer. This confession caught everyone off guard and was unexpected.
Zhao ZhihongWhat was the truth back then? Is what Zhao Zhihong said true or false? If what he said is true, how should the judiciary deal with this unjust, false and wrongly decided case?
Hugejiletu, born on August 9, 1977, is a native of Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, and is the second son of the family.
In the eyes of his family, Hugjiletu is kind by nature, honest, honest and upright, usually does not even dare to kill a chicken, and will never do anything hurtful. This is also the main reason why the family later overcame all difficulties and firmly believed that he was innocent.
At the age of 18, Hugjiltu worked as a laborer in a cigarette factory. There is a dry toilet between the cigarette factory and his home, and Hugjiltu has become accustomed to passing through this place every day.
However, on the night of April 9, 1996, an accident happened.
Hugjiltu.
At 9:15 that night, Hugejiletu finished his work, beckoned his co-worker Yan Feng to go to dinner together, and drank a little wine.
After the meal, Hugejiletu suddenly remembered that the factory had banned alcohol, so he went to the shop opposite the factory and bought two pieces of bubble gum. Yan Feng returned to the workshop first, preparing to work overtime.
Ten minutes later, Hugejiltu returned to the factory in a panic, threw a piece of bubble gum to Yan Feng, and then hurried back to his station.
"Why is the top of your head sweaty, is it so tiring to buy bubble gum? ”Yan Feng hooked the corners of his mouth and teased.
Hugjil lost his mind, buried his head in his arms, and said nothing. Yan Feng chewed gum and shook his head, not planning to continue asking.
Hugjiltu.
Unexpectedly, a few minutes later, Hugejiltu suddenly got up and rushed towards Yan Feng.
He stammered"Yan Feng, just now, when I was passing by the public toilet just now, I heard a woman shouting for help. You, do you think you will die? ”
When Yan Feng heard this, his face turned blue, he swallowed his saliva, and said:"Why don't we go and see? ”
Hugejiletu nodded, he was obviously a little curious and worried, and pulled Yan Feng towards the public toilet briskly.
The public toilet is located at the northeast corner of the intersection next to the cigarette factory, and the location is relatively remote. The whole alley is exceptionally secluded, and there are no street lights, giving it an eerie feel.
Location of the crime (1996).
The two big men stayed outside the public toilet for a long time, squirming and pinching, not knowing what to do.
"Why don't you shout? ”Hugejiletu tugged at Yan Feng's clothes.
Yan Feng pursed his lips and shouted at the top of his voice"Anyone? Is there anyone in there? ”
The shouts were loud and even echoed in the darkness, but no one in the public toilet responded.
"Let's go in and have a look, it's okay to wait outside. ”Yan Feng took a deep breath, turned on the lighter, and pulled Hugejiletu into the women's toilet.
With the faint light of the lighter, the two saw what appeared to be a foreign object near the wall. When I walked in, I saw a naked woman leaning against a low wall next to the pit, unconscious.
The two had never seen such an infiltrating scene, and they were so frightened that their legs and feet were weak, and they ran away in unison.
Hugejiltu with his family.
Soon, the two ran to the security booth next to the intersection.
Hugjiletu was stunned, his pupils widened, and he said while panting"Let's call the police! ”
Yan Feng has been in society for many years, and his intuition tells him that he shouldn't be nosy.
"Don't be, let's pretend we didn't see it, what if we are suspected of us? ”
Although Hugjiltu is not very bold, he has always been clear in major matters and has a sense of justice. He clenched his fists and walked firmly into the security booth.
As everyone knows, there is no turning back from this advance, and his life is finally fixed at the bravest and most beautiful 18 years old.
After reporting the case, the Hohwa Public Security Bureau and the Xincheng Public Security Bureau respectively sent a number of criminal investigators to the scene to investigate.
As for Hugejiletu and Yan Feng, who were originally the informants who provided clues, they were directly judged to be the first suspects, and they were detained separately and provided confessions separately.
Afterwards, recalling the night he was interrogated, Yan Feng still had lingering palpitations:"We went at midnight and I was asked until two in the morning. I kept hearing the sound of tables and chairs banging and men screaming from next door, it should be Hugjiltu, who shouted in pain......”
That night, Yan Feng just described the scene of the crime, and said it more than a dozen times, and he was able to recite it backwards. During the day the next day, Yan Feng was released, but he did not see Hugejiltu.
Yan Feng hurriedly went to Hugejiltu's house and carefully informed his parents of the incident.
An old photograph of Hugjiltu.
Hugejiletu's mother, Shang Aiyun, was shocked, grabbed Yan Feng's collar and asked"Is he still in there? Was he hurt? Why did you come out, why is he still locked up? ”
Shang Aiyun was careless and incoherent, and his worried posture really startled Yan Feng.
Yan Feng's face was gloomy, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't say words of comfort, so he had to tell the truth"He should have been beaten, and I heard him shouting, 'I didn't kill anyone, you have to force me to admit it, you might as well shoot me.'" ”
"Kid, it's not you, is it? ”Shang Aiyun almost didn't stand still, and asked nervously and scared.
"Auntie, it's really not! I found the body with him! ”Yan Feng raised his finger and swore solemnly.
The big stone in Shang Aiyun's heart sank, collapsed to the ground, and repeated:"That's good, that's good......”
Shang Aiyun was grief-stricken at her son's grave.
Even if Yan Feng didn't explain, Shang Aiyun would never believe that his kind, upright, introverted and timid son would do a murderous bastard.
Shang Aiyun thought that the clear person would clear himself, and the truth would come out as soon as possible. Who would have thought that two days later, what she was waiting for was a cold notice, and the tone was like cold frost, which was creepy.
"Your son pleaded guilty and signed the law, and he confessed that he had killed **. ”
After a while, Shang Aiyun and her husband saw a stack of written materials, the first of which was the confession signed and drawn by Hugejiltu.
11 days after the incident, an article called"The Investigation of the Corpse of the Four Nine Women".The article was published in the Hohhot newspaper, which aroused the attention and heated discussion of the people of the city.
The article denounced Hugjiltu's heinous murderous acts, saying that he was treacherous and cunning, did not cooperate with the interrogation process, wasted the resources of the criminal police, and took two days to confess to justice.
In the factory dormitory, Yan Feng trembled with a newspaper in his hand, his face turned purple, and tears rolled in his eyes.
Hugjiltu.
In fact, after being interrogated that day, he was summoned many times. Once, he clearly saw through the crack in the door that his former friend was being abused and tortured inhumanely.
Wearing a motorcycle helmet, Hugjiltu's entire body was chained to a heating pipe, his body almost exhausted of strength, except for moans of pain.
Yan Feng still remembers that ** asked him nonsensical questions many times.
"Is he so, does he usually have a habit of watching pornographic videos? ”
Yan Feng frowned suspiciously, and then said affirmatively"No, he's usually very honest. ”
But ** still refuses to relent, and similar questions are asked again and again. In order to get out as soon as possible, Yan Feng could only say helplessly"He'd said a few vulgar jokes before, but very few. ”
Yan Feng replayed these images in his mind over and over again, thinking about Hugejiltu's current situation, his heart was full of mixed feelings, and he began to regret why he couldn't stop Hugejiletu from calling the police in the first place.
On 23 May 1996, in the first instance, Hugjiltu's lawyer asserted a plea of not guilty.
However, the court found that:On the night of the crime, the victim of Hugejiltu** relieved his hands, then covered his mouth, choked his neck, and stripped his clothes, causing the victim to suffocate and flee the scene of the crime.
In court, the presiding judge officially announced:"The defendant Hugjiletu was sentenced to death for hooliganism and intentional homicide. ”
Hearing the word "death penalty", Hugjiltu's eyes revealed despair, and he shouted like crazy:"I didn't **, I didn't kill anyone, I was wronged, I want to appeal! ”
Shang Aiyun fainted on the spot, and in a trance, she heard her son's shouts getting smaller and smaller, from the beginning full of hope to the emptiness and weakness at the end.
However, no one in the court wanted to listen to Hugjiltu's explanation. In their eyes, Hugjiltu is a pervert, a murderer, and a cunning man full of lies.
On June 5, in the second-instance court, the Inner Mongolia High People's Court still upheld the original verdict.
On June 10, 62 days after the incident, Hugjiltu, who had just turned 18, was dragged to the execution ground and executed.
Hugjiltu's body was tended by his 16-year-old brother, Qinggeltu.
"My second brother was wrapped in cloth and covered in blood. I touched his arm, it was very thin, almost skinny, and his neck, which was strangled ......”Qingletu said with tears in his eyes.
After this case, the Hohwa Municipal Public Security Bureau was greatly commended, and Feng Zhiming and other police officers were awarded second-class merits and were respected by the citizens as "detectives". As everyone knows, this glory is built on the bones of Hugjiltu.
"When my son died, so did my family. His father couldn't sleep all night, went to have his teeth extracted, and people deliberately made him faint in pain. His third brother was isolated, anxious with only a lock of hair, and dropped out of school. His reports are posted everywhere, and they are all words like '**criminal' and 'murderer'. ”Shang Aiyun smiled bitterly.
Hit the child's body, and the pain is in the mother's heart. Shang Aiyun is connected to Hugejiltu by blood, feeling his pain, his despair, his grievances. Several times, Shang Aiyun almost had a nervous breakdown, if it weren't for her insistence on rehabilitating her son, she would have been dead long ago.
Shang Aiyun. On October 23, 2005, Zhao Zhihong, a criminal, was arrested. During the interrogation, he confessed to 21 cases committed between 1996 and 2005, including robbery, theft, and homicide.
Among them, there were 12 ** cases and 10 cases of homicide after rape. No matter in terms of the number of killings or the means of killing, Zhao Zhihong has set a new high in crime in Hohhot in recent decades, which is simply outrageous.
However, what is shocking is that Zhao Zhihong mentioned an old case nine years ago, and said lightly:"The ** of the women's toilet murder case is me, you caught the wrong person, and you killed the wrong person. ”
As soon as the confession came out, all the police officers related to this case turned pale. If what Zhao Zhihong said is true, if Hugejiltu was really unjustly killed, then they will be punished extremely severely.
Zhao ZhihongOn October 29, ** took Zhao Zhihong to the scene of the crime that year, which had long been demolished and rebuilt. But Zhao Zhihong actually pointed out the location of the women's toilet clearly, and even stated the time, process, and details of the crime. He is indeed a real murderer!
Since beating their son to death, Shang Aiyun and his wife have been studying legal classics day by day for ten years, looking up relevant laws and regulations, and filing many complaints, but they have been rejected one by one.
As soon as Zhao Zhihong's confession was completed, Shang Aiyun and his wife contacted a Xinhua News Agency reporter named Tang Ji.
On October 23, 2005, Tang Ji published an internal reference, calling on the Inner Mongolia High People's Court to retry the unjust, false and wrongly decided case of 10 years ago as soon as possible, and to restore the innocence and fairness of Jiltu.
Soup meter. It was this article that was directly leveraged“4.09 Women's Toilet Murder Case".review work. In March 2006, the Political and Legal Committee of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region set up a review team.
However, things didn't go as smoothly as Tang Ji thought. In the court where Zhao Zhihong's case was heard,“4.09 "CaseIt was "missed" intentionally or unintentionally.
It took nine years for Tang Ji to submit five internal references before he was able to get the relevant authorities to officially start the legal retrial procedure against Hugejiltu.
On December 15, 2014, the court issued a final verdict, unanimously finding that Hugjil was unjust, false and wrongly decided, and declared Hugjiltu not guilty.
July 30, 2019, "409 "The real culprit of the case, Zhao Zhihong, was sentenced to death.
Zhao ZhihongThe 27 case-handling personnel who were involved in the Hugjil pattern were subjected to various degrees of administrative sanctions. Among them, Feng Zhiming, then deputy director of the Hohwa Public Security Bureau, was sentenced to 18 years in prison for ***.
After 18 years, Hugejiletu finally got his grievances, and Shang Aiyun was relieved and shed tears of excitement. She finally waited for justice, but this justice came too late, and it couldn't save her son's life after all.
On February 3, 2015, the Inner Mongolia High Court issued more than 205 yuan in state compensation to Shang Aiyun and his wife. After receiving the money, Shang Aiyun's first reaction was to change his son to a new cemetery first.
In response to the unjust, false and wrongful case of Hugejiltu, the Inner Mongolia High People's Court has made a heavy reflection. However, the dead are gone, and the justice that comes late cannot bring the dead back to life.
It is hoped that in the future, every judicial worker will be strict with himself, think and do something worthy of his position, use the power in his hands prudently, respect every life, and do not let in"The Hugejiltu Case".Again.
