Chapter 544 The First Class

The first court of "Ma Quanyou and other 39 senior officers of Sanyuan Province accused of crimes against humanity" is not open to the media.

Judge Zhu Zhenglong even issued an injunction. In order to prevent the influence of the outside world on the jurors, any media is prohibited from reporting the case in a biased manner. That is, the trial process of the case can be stated objectively, but any commentary content is prohibited from appearing in the media. .

Lu Ming was sitting in the vice seat, and on the left was the controlling position, barrister Gao Zengbao was sitting, and on the right was Han Anni.

Regarding the position of the defense, Ma Quanyou and others did not come to Wu'an at all, and everything was handed over to Richard's lawyers.

In the auditorium, a total of [-] seats are allowed to attend. After all, some judicial figures or other dignitaries from the Northern Xinjiang who come from other places also have their own connections.

After the gavel was struck, the chaotic crowd quieted down, and Judge Zhu Zhenglong, who was sitting on the judge's bench, announced the beginning of the trial.

Gao Zengbao stood up, "I request to call witness No. [-]!"

"Objection!" The defense's deputy lawyer, Laideke, stood up. He was a blond man in his 40s, wearing a tuxedo, and he was handsome.

"Your Honor, I think the focus of this case is not at all how many people were injured in the war! We all know that in any war, there will be innocent victims, and I don't think anyone will feel sad about it. and anger, so peace should be the direction we are always pursuing!"

Ledecke sighed deeply, "The question is, who is responsible for these victims?"

He walked out of the defense bench, took two steps, and sighed: "We all know how poor and backward Anshan is. Most of the people living there are cruelly exploited and oppressed. After the assassination, that area fell into the quagmire of war."

"For this reason, neighboring neighbors, such as Longbei, have sent the Peace Army, and of course, our northern Xinjiang has also sent the Peace Army. Soldiers such as Ma Quanyou, who are now slandered as warmongers, are members of the Peace Army. "

"Objection! Ma Quanyou and others are not ordinary soldiers, but warlords who rule the grasslands. They are suspected of committing crimes against humanity! They are not warmongers. The defense is avoiding the most serious!" Gao Zengbao immediately stood up, "We did not prosecute Ma Quanyou I am a warmonger, so I ask the court not to support the defence's tricks."

Zhu Zhenglong nodded: "The objection is valid."

Laideke shook his head helplessly: "Speaking of warmongers, in Anshan, in addition to our two neighbors in Longbei and Beijiang who sent peace troops, there is also a friend who is not a neighbor, who is what we call a Montenegrin, not far away. Thousands of miles away, the Peace Army has also been sent."

"But you don't know if you have noticed that since the Montenegrin people came to our four Jiangbei provinces, the frequency of wars here seems to be much higher, and in many wars, one of the two hostile sides will always be a Montenegrin soldier? "

Gao Zengbao stood up abruptly: "Objection!"

"Your Honor, my statement is supported by data!" Laideker looked at Zhu Zhenglong.

Zhu Zhenglong waved his hand: "Objection is invalid!"

There was an officer in the defense, and some materials were sent to the jury box.

Gao Zengbao originally wanted to object to this sudden attack, questioning that the "evidence" he was going to submit had not been submitted to the defense for review in advance.

Lu Ming waved his hand to stop him.

Zhu Zhenglong definitely agreed to present the evidence in court, and his objection was invalid, which seemed to be a guilty conscience.

In addition, the presentation of the "evidence" was due to the fact that one's own side opposed the defense's statement, which led to these evidence.

Even if Zhu Zhenglong is replaced by Christine, there is a high probability that the evidence will be allowed to be presented in court, which is not considered to be partial to the defense.

This is a common trap in the confrontation between the court and the defense, and Richard's side is well prepared.

Some affairs officers also sent a copy of the materials to the prosecution seat.

It is a very detailed record of the wars that have occurred in northern Xinjiang in the past ten years.

It also takes the date when Jiangning Province established the Black Mountain Brigade and signed a cooperation agreement with Yin Gaobaoshan of Nanping Road as the node.

Sure enough, it is obvious that after the establishment of the Black Mountain Brigade and entering the Longbei Nanping Road in the four northern provinces, the frequency and intensity of wars in the four northern provinces have greatly increased.

In most wars, the Montenegrin Corps directly participated in them.

The data analysis mode and mathematical model it uses are like an accountant's report, which looks particularly intuitive.

The jurors watched and started whispering to each other.

Lu Ming caught a glimpse of Richard sitting upright, seemingly indifferent, but actually had a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

This material is not just for jurors to see for this lawsuit.

I'm afraid that soon, in the four provinces of the Northern Territory, the Black Mountain Army will be labeled as a "warmonger". It will be very difficult to get rid of it.

And even if it was Ren Zhonglin, seeing this analysis form, his heart would be overwhelmed.

It is one thing to know that you have reached out into the four provinces of the Northern Territory, but after seeing these analysis materials, you may think differently.

This guy Richard didn't just come to sue him, he just came here to smash himself.

Over there, Laideke continued: "Your Honor, all jurors, in the war on Songshan Road where the tragic incident happened, it was also the so-called Peace Army from Montenegro who took the lead in attacking the Peace Army in Northern Xinjiang!"

Laideke bowed slightly and returned to the defense seat.

Gao Zengbao stood up, "Defence, do you mean Ma Quanyou's troops by the peace army in northern Xinjiang? Because as far as I know, the Black Mountain Corps has never attacked friendly troops in northern Xinjiang. Otherwise, we would still be allowed to come here." Is there a lawsuit here?"

Laideke said indifferently: "Ma Quanyou's department is also a member of the Northern Xinjiang Peace Army."

Gao Zengbao said coldly: "Then, what the defense means is that the massacre by Ma Quanyou's troops in Songshan City is the usual style of the Northern Xinjiang Peace Army?"

"Objection!" Redek suddenly stood up.

Gao Zengbao said coldly: "In fact, before the Black Mountain Corps declared war on the Ma Quanyou gang, the Ma Quanyou gang had already carried out a massacre in Songshan City. This gang from the grassland has always lived on horseback. It is different from us. Since childhood, They joined the war troops, and, in history, they used to plunder the population to serve as slaves on the grasslands. If they encountered villages and cities that refused to surrender, they would massacre them. People surrendered without a fight! We all have witnesses and physical evidence for all of this!"

Since Gao Zengbao called Ma Quanyou's "gangsters", Laideke has been loudly opposing.

Zhu Zhenglong has also been gesturing "opposition is valid" and asked Gao Zengbao to stop speaking.

But Gao Zengbao insisted on talking until the end, until Zhu Zhenglong knocked on the gavel, "Prosecution, I am ruling you to be in contempt of court and temporarily deprive you of your qualifications as a lawyer for the prosecution! After this case is over, I will decide whether to punish you or not." The court is adjourned now! After the prosecution submits a new list of lawyers, I will continue, and I will give the prosecution 24 hours!"

Lu Ming patted Gao Zengbao's hand. This was a necessary sacrifice. The Ma Quanyou tribe must be defined as a grassland tribe and separated from the "northern Xinjiang people" group of jurors.

As for the lawyers sitting in the chief prosecutor's seat, there is naturally no shortage of our own side.

Zhu Zhenglong can fine ten or eight more fines.

However, the ball certificate (referee) is obviously biased towards the opponent, and as long as one of the goalkeepers (jurors) is bribed, it is impossible to successfully convict Ma Quanyou and others.

As for people like Ma Quanyou, it is impossible to say that they will not secretly attack the jurors.

Although the jurors were randomly selected from Beining City, and after the prosecution applied, the court approved the jurors' information to be kept strictly confidential from both the prosecution and the defense. During the trial, they had to live and eat in the court.

But Zhu Zhenglong naturally has the detailed information.

Therefore, it is not difficult for Ma Quanyou to find the family members of a certain juror, and after doing some things, find a way to get the family members and jurors in touch.

This lawsuit is indeed more difficult to fight.

In fact, in a place like northern Xinjiang, using the jury system to sue the powerful is a bit of a joke.

Of course, the rich and powerful are in power, and the judges make rulings, which is actually the same.

It doesn't matter what the core is like, what the skin is like.

At least the jury system is relatively fair when it comes to litigation at the same level.

While Lu Ming was pondering.

Over there, Richard stood up and smiled at Lu Ming, "Let him come!" He turned around and left the field surrounded by left and right.
