In Chengdu in 2023, a woman named Ms. Xie revealed to us a heinous and tragic experience. She claims to have suffered 16 times of domestic violence from her husband over a period of two years. And the most shocking thing is that this first atrocity happened during her pregnancy, when she was at her most vulnerable physical and mental stage.
When she was seven months pregnant, the violence struck again, this time so severe that she suffered multiple internal organ injuries all over her body. We can't help but ask, why is it that after suffering such serious injuries, Ms. Xie still can't escape from the clutches of this demon? Why couldn't she get a divorce and end this painful relationship? Why did her life fall into an endless state of torment and suffering?
In June 2023, Ms. Xie bravely stood up and posted an article exposing all this. Her story quickly aroused the attention and sympathy of the majority of netizens. People have expressed zero tolerance for domestic violence and hope that the law will give Ms. Xie a just trial.
Over the next six months, Ms. Xie underwent two injury evaluations. In the end, He Moumou, who abused her, was criminally detained on suspicion of intentional injury, and was prosecuted by the Wuhou District Procuratorate on suspicion of intentional injury and abuse.
On the afternoon of January 10, 2024, a pre-trial conference was held in the case. After the pretrial conference, Ms. Xie revealed to reporters that He Moumou made an accusation of not admitting the crime of abuse at the meeting and requested that Ms. Xie be re-evaluated. Ms. Xie firmly disagreed with this and put forward a request for supplementary appraisal. She asked for a supplementary evaluation of her left kidney, because at the first evaluation, the left kidney was evaluated as "minor injury level 2 recoverable", but now the situation is that the left kidney has been deteriorating and shrinking.
Previously, the Wuhou District Branch of the Chengdu Municipal Public Security Bureau had issued a notice of appraisal opinion, showing that Ms. Xie's abdominal injuries reached the second-level standard for serious injuries. Later, Ms. Xie proposed a re-appraisal and went to the relevant institutions in Beijing for appraisal. What awaits now is a fair trial and legal sanctions, which will bring Ms. Xie the justice and protection she deserves.
