In 1998, the freighter Changsheng sailed from Shanghai terminal to its destination Malaysia.
This is a 10,000-ton freighter, and the freighter is loaded with 140,000 tons of cinders, worth more than 25 million yuan, and the crew on the freighter are all hired by Guangzhou Ocean Company, which is very experienced.
However, people did not expect that on November 17, the freighter suddenly lost contact with the company, and they could no longer be found on the vast sea.
The disappearance of the Nagatsu has made people anxious.
On the first day, it was thought that the Changsheng was caught in a storm, so the signal was interrupted.
However, after 24 hours of waiting, the company tried to recontact the crew of the Changsheng, but there was still no news.
This was troublesome, and in order to find the Changsheng, the company immediately wrote a written report to the superiors and exchanged various information at the same time to confirm the location where the Changsheng might have passed.
In the following days, both Hong Kong and Malaysia assisted in the search and rescue efforts.
However, more than ten days passed, and nothing was found.
This makes people more and more frightened, a 10,000-ton cargo ship, missing for more than ten days, most likely because of an accident.
Experienced sea workers all thought of one direction - pirates.
The seas are never smooth, and a cargo ship like the Changsheng is likely to be targeted by pirates.
Therefore, Changsheng's company quickly explained to Guangzhou.
At present, action needs to be taken as soon as possible, otherwise, the lives of the 23 crew members on board cannot be guaranteed.
After receiving feedback on the situation, Guangdong Province immediately issued an emergency investigation notice, from China's ** to the military, and then to the police of Southeast Asian countries participated in the search and rescue operation.
However, in the end, it was not good news.
On December 22, 1998, when Chinese fishermen were fishing in the sea area, they actually salvaged an unknown corpse.
Moreover, the fishermen were shocked to find that the body was naked, with his hands and feet handcuffed and chained, and it was clear that he had been subjected to inhuman abuse during his lifetime.
The horrified fishermen immediately called the police,** deducing that the nameless body may be related to the recent disappearance of the Changsheng.
And the bad news came one after another, and the nearby fishermen fished out the corpses in the sea one after another, and these corpses were in a similar condition, they were bound in chains before their deaths, and many scars could be observed on their bodies.
And ** found that they were also tied with stones. Obviously, this is a deliberate **.
Criminal investigation experts from the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department immediately rushed to the scene.
After a detailed examination, the forensic doctor concluded that the dozen or so bodies found were all crew members on the Changsheng.
So, who brutally killed them?
Guangdong Province characterized the case as Case No. 9901, and quickly set up a special case investigation headquarters to demand that the case be solved within a time limit.
However, what is the clue to this case?
At this moment, Li Zilu, a criminal police officer in Shanwei City, provided a precious clue.
It turned out that in the middle of November 1998, Li Zilu was responsible for investigating and handling a case.
A Shanwei man named Huang Daming had the audacity to contract ships without permission, pretending to be China's coastal defense personnel, and carrying out robberies in the open sea.
And not long ago, Li Zilu found a clue, and Huang Daming temporarily withdrew, because the ship he contracted was hit and the bow was damaged.
Li Zilu speculated that Huang Daming's boat was probably damaged during the robbery.
According to the clues in Li Zilu's hands, Huang Daming now parked the ship at Dongshan Port.
In order to find out, the task force immediately rushed to Dongshan Port.
And Huang Daming seemed to hear the wind, so he smeared oil on the soles of his feet early and slipped away.
The task force successfully found the damaged ship, and they did make a breakthrough discovery.
Because, the task force noticed that Huang Daming's boat had some paint scratched on the bow.
After laboratory testing, it was discovered that the paint came from the missing Changsheng.
In this way, Huang Daming has become the biggest breakthrough in this case.
On December 31, police officers blocked Huang Daming, who was trying to escape.
Huang Daming knew that he couldn't run away, so he confessed what he knew.
Mr. Wong said he was unclear about the details of the case and was not directly involved. Because, not long ago, there was an Indonesian named Sonny and a Shanwei man named Weng Siliang, who borrowed his boat and said that they were going to the open sea to do business, that is, robbery.
Huang Daming received the benefits and lent the boat out, but who expected that the ship would be damaged when it was returned, and Huang Daming was heartbroken.
Later, after hearing about the case of Changsheng, Huang Daming realized that Weng Siliang and others might have robbed Changsheng.
Therefore, as soon as he heard that the public security organs were coming to arrest him, he immediately chose to flee.
Huang also told the police that Weng Siliang's den was probably in Shenzhen.
In accordance with this clue, the public security organs immediately came to Shenzhen to squat.
Sure enough, many of Weng Siliang's gang are hiding here.
However, Weng Siliang himself, as well as the Indonesian Sony, have not appeared.
Fortunately, after a few days of investigation and rehearsal, the public security organs determined that there was a song and dance hall where Weng Siliang's horses often haunted. One of them, Jia Hongwei, worked as a security guard in this dance hall and was one of the main culprits who boarded the ship at that time.
Grasp Jia Hongwei, the context of this case will probably be clear.
So, the public security organs came up with a way to lure the snake out of the hole. They squatted outside Jia Hongwei's rental house, tried to cut off the water and electricity in the house, attracted Jia Hongwei and his live-in girlfriend to go out to check, and took advantage of this opportunity to arrest them in one fell swoop.
After Jia Hongwei was arrested, he confessed many of his accomplices, and the public security organs knocked out many dens, and also caught one of the leaders, the Indonesian Sony.
From the mouths of Jia Hongwei and Sony, the public security organs finally knew what kind of human tragedy happened on the Changsheng at that time.
Weng Siliang is a habitual offender, who has been doing robbery on the high seas all year round, so he has his eyes on the Changsheng early on.
There are also some mistakes, because Weng Siliang knows that China is not easy to deal with, so he has always only attacked foreign ships.
However, the Panamanian flag was hung on the Victorious. Mainly because Panama had preferential policies for many freighters at that time, so many ships were registered directly in Panama, although they served Chinese companies, but they wore the brand of a foreign ship.
No one expected that such a small act would lead to death for the crew.
After locking on the goal of Changsheng, Weng Siliang told his subordinate Jia Hongwei and the Indonesian pirate Sonny, whom he knew in his early years, to meet at the designated location.
At the same time, Weng Siliang borrowed his boat from his old acquaintance Huang Daming.
Their plan was that Sonny and Jia Hongwei would go to sea to carry out the robbery mission, while Weng Siliang and others would be responsible for picking them up on the shore.
Weng Siliang also specially told Sony and Jia Hongwei that after finishing the matter, they would cut down the grass and eradicate the roots of the crew.
After everything was ready, Jia Hongwei and Sony set off.
At 12 noon on the 16th, they found the Nagakatsu moving on the sea.
So, they drove Huang Daming's boat, crashed straight up, and asked Changsheng to stop the ship.
The Changsheng was really forced to stop, and the bow of the boat driven by Jia Hongwei was also cracked, and the water poured in frantically.
However, the more than 20 people brought by Jia Hongwei are all ruthless characters who rob all year round. Therefore, they did not care about the leaky ship at all, but jumped up and climbed directly along the deck to the Changsheng, and also carried **.
The crew of the Everwin was defenseless and was quickly restrained by the swarming pirates.
Jia Hongwei walked into the captain's room and searched for the freight list on the freighter. However, when he looked at the words on it, Jia Hongwei was dumbfounded.
Whether it was Jia Hongwei, Sony or Weng Siliang, they all thought that the ship was loaded with goods that could be realized immediately, but they never expected that it was cinders. Although cinders are valuable, they can't always drag a cargo ship of cinders to sell.
What made Jia Hongwei even more depressed was that the boat they were on was also damaged, and now there are more than 20 of them, and there is no way to go back.
Jia Hongwei could only send a few henchmen to contact Weng Siliang by boat first, and asked him to find a way to pick him up on the high seas.
And Sony is thinking about another thing, if they can't get money this time, it will be in vain.
Sony considered that they could not transport the cinders from the ship, but the ship was still worth a lot of money.
Sony contacted a boss he knew in Indonesia named Roger, and offered to sell him the freighter, along with the cargoes large and small.
Roger happily accepted this and offered $350,000 for **.
However, he stressed to Sony that the ship wants, but the people don't.
Sony told Weng Siliang about this, and Weng Siliang said to Sony very lightly: Everything went according to the original plan.
The original plan was to kill all the crew members on the ship.
So, on November 24, Sonny and the others ate and drank on the ship, and then gathered all their subordinates and gave an order in the name of Weng Siliang to let them kill on the ship.
At that time, all the crew members were tied up and locked in the cabin, and after being hungry for a few days, they had no strength to resist for a long time.
Sonny and the others dragged the captain out first, and slammed the captain on the head with an iron rod.
When the captain passed out, they tied stones to the captain and brutally threw him into the sea.
Others did the same, brutally beating the crew with blunt objects.
From 12 o'clock that night until 10 o'clock the next morning, they continued to dump the corpses, until the last crew member was also sunk to the bottom of the sea, and Sony was relieved.
After Sony**, he was worried that he would be sentenced heavily, so he quickly confessed everything he knew about Weng Siliang.
Sony knew that Weng Siliang was actually hiding in Shenzhen.
It's just that this person Shenlong sees the beginning and doesn't see the end, even if he goes to sea to rob, he is also very cautious, and he never does it himself.
And when the task force went to Shenzhen again, it was empty again. It turned out that there was a relationship between Huang Daming and Jia Hongwei, who were arrested before, and after Huang Daming**, his mother immediately told Weng Siliang the news.
Therefore, before the case, Weng Siliang had already run from Shenzhen to Guangzhou.
It was only after the police arrested Weng Siliang's brother-in-law that they learned that he had escaped.
This made the police very worried, although Weng Siliang's brother-in-law said that he ran to Guangzhou, but a person like this, who has been robbing in the open sea all the year round, may have many ways to go abroad. In case he runs abroad, things will not be easy.
As a result, the public security organs conducted a large-scale search along Guangzhou, and at the same time arrested a number of relatives who cooperated with Weng Siliang in committing the crime.
But Weng Siliang is very cautious, even if it is his relatives, they don't know that he has fled now, and the public security organs can only look for him one by one.
* It is believed that under such tight control, it is unlikely that Weng Siliang will succeed in escaping the country, and it is very likely that he will stay in some unknown poor country. Because, it is difficult for the police force in those places to cover.
In the end, it turns out that this inference of ** is correct.
At that time, because he couldn't find clues about Weng Siliang for a long time, ** decided to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, and along the clues of the past, a large number of Weng Siliang's horses were searched.
Many of these horses are close to Weng Siliang and are likely to know where he is hiding.
No matter how cautious Weng Siliang is, he still needs to live, and it is impossible for no one to answer.
A few days later, ** caught a horse boy surnamed Xu, who had given money to Weng Siliang.
From Lao Xu's mouth, ** finally learned that Weng Siliang's current hiding place is Dragon Boat Village, Dragon Boat Management Area, Aojiang Town, Huilai County.
To find such a remote place, Weng Siliang is really not simple.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, ** immediately went to arrest Weng Siliang.
And after arriving at Dragon Boat Village, ** understood why Weng Siliang chose such a place.
This village seems to be in a remote area, but there is an open-air square at the entrance of the village, where many people of all religions and nine streams mingle, and there is even a public karaoke.
As long as there is a commotion, Weng Siliang, who lives in the village, will definitely be able to hear the wind. However, this time I made a lot of determination.
In less than a few minutes, ** immediately surrounded this open-air square, and not a single ant would let go.
After cutting off Weng Siliang's information channel, ** rushed into Weng Siliang's rental house.
After kicking the door open, Weng Siliang was lying on the sofa leisurely watching TV.
It wasn't until ** rushed in front of him with a gun that Weng Siliang realized that he had been caught.
At this point, the dust has finally settled on the case of the Changsheng.
* In the follow-up, many accomplices were arrested, and at the same time, the court also made a fair verdict for Weng Siliang, Sony and others.
Sony, Weng Siliang, Jia Hongwei and other main culprits were all sentenced to death for intentional homicide and robbery.
The detection of this case took more than a year, and the footprints of ** were all over the coastal cities, fighting wits and courage with criminals.
Fortunately, in the end, the balance of victory finally tilted in favor of the righteous side.
The crew members who died in vain on the Changsheng were finally able to rest in peace.
