A few days ago, a batch of branded watches imported from Shanghai Pudong Airport were sent to the dealer's warehouse normally after completing customs clearance, but there were 400 pieces less when the goods were unpacked and inspected.
The brand watches involved in the case. *Shanghai Jing'an**.
On December 29, 2023, the Nanjing West Road Police Station of the Jing'an Public Security Bureau in Shanghai received a report from a brand watch dealer in the jurisdiction, saying that a batch of brand-name watches imported from abroad on the 18th of that month were found to be missing 4 models of a total of 400 watches during weighing and inspection, with a cumulative loss of more than 300 yuan.
After entering the customs, the goods must go through multiple links such as customs declaration, inspection, storage, loading, transportation and unloading. **During the investigation, it was found that the watches arrived at their destination with complete customs records and the lead seals of the trucks intact. According to the data provided by the logistics company, the truck travels about 150 kilometers from the airport to the destination warehouse, which is almost a high-speed journey, and the transportation time and route are not abnormal.
* After separately collecting the public ** of the customs warehouse and the receiving warehouse on the day of the incident, and combining the investigation of personnel, no traces of artificial destruction and invasion of the carton containing the watch were found, and the investigation of the case fell into a bottleneck.
Through further verification of the packing ** video of the goods during customs clearance and warehousing, the investigators noticed that the packaging box of the original lost watch was vertically sealed when it was cleared and loaded into the truck, and it was horizontally sealed when it was unloaded at the destination warehouse, and the sealing tape was suspected to have been torn off and repasted.
This finding was soon confirmed. According to the dealer, the carton containing the watch was shipped from two cartons on top of each other, and theoretically the tape in the sandwich area could be easily torn apart. At the same time, according to the GPS positioning of the truck provided by the logistics company, the truck had a short stay in the Fengjing service area during transportation, and the logistics company previously said that the truck driver Sun met the freight regulations and rested here to avoid fatigue driving.
This is undoubtedly an important breakthrough in this case. **Quickly called up the on-site public** for research and judgment, and soon found out that Sun had opened the left wing door of the truck in the service area, and was suspected of committing a major crime. On the morning of January 9, 2024, the police arrested the criminal suspect Sun in an apartment in Zhuqiao Town, Pudong New Area.
After arriving at the case, Sun confessed to taking advantage of his position to steal goods. According to Sun's confession, before he loaded the goods from the customs, he installed a plastic seal on the vehicle container in accordance with the company's regulations, and in order to ensure that the container door could be opened smoothly, Sun deliberately did not tie the lead seal to death. After entering the service area, he used the rest time to quickly open the lead seal and enter the car to commit the crime, stealing a total of 8 bundles of watches and hiding them in the toolbox on the left side of the truck, and then using the tape prepared in advance to re-assemble the upper and lower cartons and install the lead seals and send them to the destination without being detected. It wasn't until the dealer went to the warehouse to pick up the goods that the goods were opened and inspected, and then the East Window incident occurred.
In the meantime, in order to sell the watch as soon as possible, Sun relied on the high-end watch dealer personality created on the Internet before, and reached a transaction intention with a number of buyers at a 3% discount on the original price, and collected the other party's deposit. On the day of the incident, immediately after returning to Shanghai, he went to multiple express delivery points to scatter 400 watches to buyers, making illegal profits of more than 90 yuan.
At present, the criminal suspect Sun has been arrested by the Jing'an District People's Procuratorate in accordance with the law on suspicion of embezzlement. Recently, Jing'an** has also organized multiple police forces to carry out cross-provincial recovery of stolen goods and losses, and a total of 145 watches involved in the case have been recovered. As of now, the case is under further investigation.
