On September 9, 2015, a shocking scene was staged in the Intermediate People's Court of ** City, Hubei Province: a middle-aged man attacked a female judge with a knife, screaming and screaming for help.
Subsequently, the three male judges bravely rescued, but unfortunately became the target of the murderer and fell in a pool of blood. He roared uncontrollably, calling them with"Black-hearted boss"Collusion should be subject to this report.
However, this seemingly ruthless ** is actually a low-level migrant worker, why is he so extreme? How did he end? Next, let's uncover this incident that shook the whole country"** Assassination of a judge"The inside story.
Hu Qinggang, who was born in the Maojian District in the 70s, is a tough brother. Shouldering the burden of the family since childhood, due to the early death of his parents and the large number of younger siblings, he worked the construction site at a young age, maintaining the family with modest efforts to enable his younger siblings to study.
He was the breadwinner of the family, but due to the hardships of life, he was unable to get an education, and he was not able to start a family, and he remained single until his 40s. Despite this, he won the love of his younger siblings with his practical actions.
At the beginning of 2013, Hu Qinggang was recommended by his fellow villagers to join an automobile company and engage in porterage, which seemed to pay well. However, due to his lack of knowledge, he did not realize the importance of signing an employment contract, and in fact his status as a temporary worker hid risks.
Hu Qinggang is honest and down-to-earth, and is highly appreciated by his leaders, but as the company's performance declines, his salary has become unstable, which undoubtedly increases his financial pressure, especially when he also needs to support his younger siblings at home.
One day at the end of the year, when Hu Qinggang was surprised to find that he had received nearly 1,000 yuan less than his colleagues, the injustice made him puzzled and angry. He works hard as an ox, but he reaps less than his seemingly slippery colleagues, which makes him wonder if he has become the object of contempt because of his honesty.
This 1,000 yuan is not only the daily expenses of Hu Qinggang's family for several months, although it is insignificant to Haofu, but it is the pillar of his life. In the face of the boss's neglect and wage arrears, he bravely proposed, but in exchange for the blow of unemployment.
Under the guidance of a friend, he dialed **assistance** and found a solution - through the **Municipal Personnel and Labor Dispute Arbitration Commission. The professionals here revealed that it was illegal for the company to not sign an employment contract, and he had the opportunity to claim double wages and apply for compensation.
At this moment, Hu Qinggang's heart was full of hope, and he eagerly collected evidence and prepared to fight against injustice.
Arriving at the company's residence, the workers questioned Mr. Hu's efforts to defend his rights, fearing that his boss might have infiltrated the arbitration body. But Hu Qinggang firmly believes that there is always justice in the world, and decided to challenge this assertion with practical actions.
He sorted out all the evidence and submitted a total of more than 60,000 yuan in claims to the ** Municipal Labor and Personnel Dispute Arbitration Commission, including double wages, lost time pay, etc. However, his expectations were met with a setback when the arbitration rejected his claim due to insufficient evidence, as if a basin of cold water had extinguished his hopes.
In the face of this blow, Hu Qinggang was puzzled, why was the evidence invalid even though he was working in the company and his salary was not settled? Could it be that the workers' fears came true, and the arbitrators were influenced by the boss?
Hu Qinggang was unwilling and determined to fight again. In March 2015, he appealed to the Maojian District People's Court on his own, although he did not have the financial resources to hire a lawyer.
In the first instance, the court failed to uphold Hu's claim for payment of wages because it lacked substantial evidence such as attendance records and bank payslips. Despite the initial appeal and frustration of the lawsuit, Hu Qinggang did not give up, and his appeal brief focused on the key proof of attendance, which is strong evidence of his working hours.
However, the monitoring detachment did not provide the originals, resulting in the defeat of the case in the first instance. He expects the judge in the second instance to verify this information in order to turn the situation around. Faced with the financial pressure of his family, especially his sister's college tuition needs, Hu Qinggang urgently needed to win the case.
However, before going to court, he was full of uncertainty and feared that he would be in a desperate situation if he lost the case again. Impulsively, he came to Judge Liu's office with a sharp knife hidden in his clothes, with a glimmer of hope, waiting for the verdict of fate.
At first, when Judge Liu received Hu Qinggang, the two discussed the case calmly, but when Hu Qinggang saw the verdict appear again"Rejected", his world seemed to collapse.
Judge Liu told him that this was the final result of the trial and that he could not appeal, which made Hu Qinggang feel dead. He felt that life was hopeless, but all his efforts were in exchange for failure, his children's tuition fees had nowhere to settle, and the meaning of life seemed to be gone.
He questioned the fairness of the law and the fairness of all, and in the face of Judge Liu's fair explanation, he was desperate and asked why he was on the employer's side. However, Judge Lau's insistence on the law could not calm his emotions on the verge of madness.
At the moment when he lost his mind, the sharp knife came out of its sheath and stabbed at Judge Liu. The sudden change frightened Judge Liu, whose cries for help drew immediate rescue from other judges, but they were confronted by an out-of-control Hu Qinggang in anger and despair.
After the end of the sentence, Hu Qinggang brutally slashed three judges in a row, and although they resisted hard, the scholarly Hu Qinggang was unable to do it, resulting in a chilling scene of blood splattering.
He violently stabbed one of the judges, stabbing him more than ten times, almost taking his life, the Intermediate People's Court was instantly filled with the smell of terrifying blood, the judges panicked, the alarm sounded, and the bailiff rushed to the scene with **.
This sudden violent incident made Hu Qinggang, an originally gentle person, fall into consciousness, he froze in place, the knife in his hand fell to the ground, and he could not believe the serious consequences of his actions.
However, no matter how remorseful he was, he could not change the situation. The bailiffs quickly restrained him, and then police officers arrived at the scene and detained Hu Qinggang. Four judges were rushed to hospital, one of whom was seriously injured and was critically injured, and it took a week of all-out treatment to turn around, while the other three were not seriously injured.
In response to Hu Qinggang's wage dispute, the lawyer pointed out that he failed to provide conclusive evidence to prove the employment relationship with the automobile company, nor could he prove the fact of overtime, so his claims, including double wages, lost time pay, termination compensation and social security expenses, were rejected by the court due to insufficient evidence.
The car company's bosses had been prepared for this, knew the details of the contract well, and ensured that they were impeccable, and their evidence that Hu Qinggang was a part-time employee, not a full-time employee, and that the wages paid by the company were legal and compliant, and the court accepted them.
Original case: Hu Qinggang lacked legal awareness, ignored the importance of the employment contract, and lacked strong evidence, resulting in the expected failure of the lawsuit. However, his ignorance led to more serious consequences: he was sentenced to 11 years in prison for intentional injury, losing both money and imprisonment.
In this dispute, the cunning employer cleverly used legal loopholes to not only evade liability for compensation, but also indirectly pushed Hu Qinggang to live behind bars, involving four judges, including Judge Liu, who was hospitalized due to injuries, injured her left chest while breastfeeding, and forced to give birth to her child prematurely.
She tried her best to explain that she enforced the law fairly, and lost the case because of insufficient evidence, and did not show favoritism, but in exchange for such an ending, it was really helpless.
In the face of Hu Qinggang's heinous behavior, some people shouted for severe punishment, while others deeply understood that for him, the meager salary was not only the pillar of life, but also the sustenance of the whole family.
Imagine if you were to suffer this injustice, anger could override everything. Nowadays,"Malicious wage demand"This label is undoubtedly a violation of the dignity of migrant workers, which is like adding insult to injury.
The majesty of the law stems from the expectations of the people, and it does not allow impunity for those who break the law. Fair judgments need to take into account fairness and justice, while listening to the voices of the bottom and giving voice to the vulnerable.
The law should raise the cost to the violators, not the burden on the innocent. What are your thoughts on this? Warmly welcome to join the discussion!
