Chapter 579 The Truth Comes Out
That's right, the Peng Yu case officially went to the second instance in the First Civil Division of the Fengyuan City Intermediate Court yesterday.
In court, Li Cheng, a lawyer defending Peng Yu, showed six photos to the public, "Dear judge, comrade jurors, here are six photos that can prove that the plaintiff, Xu Zhengxiong, lied about this matter. "
The six photos that Li Cheng showed to the judge and the audience showed that Xu Zhengxiong's fall into the lake was not caused by friends pushing him.Because from the photos, when Xu Zhengxiong fell into the lake, there was no one else within one meter of him, let alone Peng Yu.
In the second photo, everyone can clearly see that Xu Zhengxiong was struggling in the water, and Peng Yu just ran over from a distance.
In the third photo, someone on the shore of the lake is calling for help, while Peng Yu is trying to lift Xu Zhengxiong up in the water.These three photos are all taken from a distance, and the appearance of the people is not very clear.The remaining three photos are recent photos of Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu going ashore.From the photo, you can clearly see the appearance of Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu.From the time shown in the photo, it was also the time when Xu Zhengxiong fell into the water.
"Judge, I don't think there is enough evidence to conclude that my client has lied based on these six photos." Xu Zhengxiong's attorney, He Zeng, immediately retorted, "I believe everyone has noticed that in these six photos , the last three photos are relatively clear. You can confirm that these two people are indeed the parties involved in this case, but the first three photos do not prove that the people inside are the parties involved in this case. You can take a look, whether it is the person who fell into the lake, The faces of the people who went into the water to rescue people and those who helped on the shore are quite blurry. Therefore, I don’t think it can be confirmed that the two people in these three photos are the parties involved in this case. As we all know, the time of the camera can be Adjusted." Although he didn't point it out clearly, his attitude that he thought the first three photos were suspected of forgery was fully revealed.
Li Cheng smiled slightly: "Lawyer He, that is to say, you have already admitted it?"
He Zeng glanced at Xu Zhengxiong who was stunned beside him. He wanted to say that even the last three photos were forged, but these three photos were clearly taken. It was obvious that the owner of the camera had come to Xu Zhengxiong and the others.The faces of Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu were very clear, and he couldn't keep his eyes open and talk nonsense.What's more, in this era, there is no PS technology.
He Zeng sighed inwardly: "Yes, we admit that the two people in the last three photos are the parties involved in this case, Mr. Peng Yu and Mr. Xu Zhengxiong"
"Just admit it." Li Cheng confidently picked up another piece of paper from the table and said, "Judge, this is the photo identification certificate issued by the Provincial Police Department, which proves that these six photos were taken by the same camera on the same day. It was taken within 15 minutes. The six photos came from the same set of negatives and there was no fraud in the order of the photos. If Lawyer He Zeng doesn’t believe it, he can ask the technical department of the police department to conduct a re-identification.”
He Zeng has the heart to vomit blood. What Li Cheng said is really simple. It seems that the technical department of the police department issuing an appraisal certificate is like buying cabbage in the market. Not to mention that he does not have the ability to send these photos to the technical department of the police department for further review. Even if there is an appraisal, it is still unknown whether the police department will overturn the appraisal result of the provincial department.
There was a lot of voices in the courtroom, and people were talking about it. With the identification certificate issued by the technical department of the Qinxi Provincial Police Department, it can be said that the two people in the first three photos have been killed, namely Xu Zhengxiong and Peng Yu.Because these six photos are from the same set of negatives, and were taken within 15 minutes of the same day, and the order of the photos has been determined, the possibility of fraud is basically blocked.Because even Xu Zhengxiong himself couldn't predict that he would fall into the lake?Naturally, it would be impossible for others to fake photos of the scene in advance.
"Silence, silence" the judge patted the table heavily and said loudly.
"Lawyer Li Cheng, where did these six photos come from? Why were they not shown to the court during the first trial?" He Zeng asked loudly.
Li Cheng said with a smile: "These six photos are from a comrade photographer. That day, he was also taking pictures in the park, and he happened to capture the scene of Mr. Xu Zhengxiong falling into the water. As for Lawyer He's question, why did he do so in the first trial?" The reason why we did not show it to the court is simple, because at that time, we did not get these six photos, and we did not know that there were still these six photos. Just seven days ago, I went abroad for business for nearly two months. This comrade who just came back from abroad sent these six photos to my client after learning about the news from the media. I wonder if Lawyer He is satisfied with this explanation?"
He Zeng asked: "Lawyer Li, why didn't you tell the public his name and work unit, and ask him to testify in court?"
Li Cheng still said with a smile on his face: "Lawyer He, first, I think the current evidence is sufficient to show that my client, Mr. Peng Yu, is not only innocent in this case, but also has no fault for Mr. Xu Zhengxiong. Thank you, if he hadn't jumped into the water in time and rescued Mr. Xu Zhengxiong ashore, Mr. Xu Zhengxiong might not only have a broken leg, but his life was in danger. Afterwards, Mr. Xu Zhengxiong insisted that it was mine. The client pushed him into the water, this is an act of revenge..."
"Judge, I protest, the opposing lawyer is intentionally exaggerating the facts and misleading the court with words," He Zeng stood up and protested.
Li Cheng dismissed his protests and continued: "Second, we believe that these six photos are enough to confirm that Mr. Peng Yu acted bravely in this incident, rather than what Mr. Xu Zhengxiong said. After pushing him into the lake, he acted to make up for his negligence. If the court finally ruled that Mr. Peng Yu was not guilty, the gentleman who provided these six photos will receive a reward of 30 yuan from Carrefour supermarket... "People in the courtroom exclaimed in surprise, no one could hear what Li Cheng said later.
"Silence, silence," the judge patted the table heavily again, speaking loudly.
"If the court finally decides that Mr. Peng Yu is not guilty, the gentleman who provided these six photos will receive a reward of 30 yuan from Carrefour Supermarket. This gentleman is very worried. Mr. Xu Zhengxiong, as a retired national The government personnel, who enjoy the national medical insurance, are willing to avenge their savior for tens of thousands of yuan. They have received a bonus of 30 yuan. If they show up in court, they are afraid that their future life will never be peaceful. So when he got these photos, he made a request, that is, he would never admit in public that these photos were provided by him. If the court thinks that his testimony is still needed, here is his written testimony If the court still doesn’t believe it, we can verify his testimony in person in private. We believe that this gentleman’s request is reasonable, so here, I cannot report his name and work unit, nor let him He will testify in court." Li Cheng's words caused another uproar in the courtroom.
Apart from being surprised and envious, people have to admit that this person is very smart, and it is necessary to do so in order to protect their own safety.Of course, everyone is envious at the same time. Carrefour Supermarket is really benevolent for its employees. Even if Peng Yu is a middle-level cadre, it will take him many years to create the reward of 30 yuan for Carrefour Supermarket. Ah, don't say that this is just a joint venture, even those state-owned enterprises may not necessarily pay such a high price for the innocence of their employees.
"I have submitted his information to the court, and I believe the court will not disclose his personal information," Li Cheng said to He Zeng pointingly.
"I protest against such words. We simply cannot question the witness in court to determine whether he is lying," He Zeng shouted loudly.Seeing that this lawsuit is going to be lost in a big way, of course he cannot let go of this last straw.As for how many troubles this witness will have after appearing in court, that is not something he needs to consider.
"I think that there is no need for him to testify in court when the current evidence is sufficient to prove the truth of the case." Li Cheng retorted tit-for-tat, "If there is any problem with lawyer He, the judge can temporarily ask the audience to withdraw. , you can ask in court."
"Since it is a public trial, why bother?" He Zeng said unwaveringly.Now he can only hope that the witness refused to testify in court because he was afraid of the possible troubles after his identity was revealed, so there is still a fight for this matter, otherwise, his side has no chance of winning.
"This is not superfluous, but for the safety of the witnesses. If the witnesses cannot even guarantee their own safety, who will be willing to testify in court in the future? I think such a simple truth, why not Does the lawyer not understand?" Li Cheng retorted.
The two had a heated debate in court about the protection of witnesses, which was so enjoyable to the spectators that the judge had to force them to stop.
In the end, the First Civil Tribunal of the Fengyuan City Intermediate Court formally pronounced the verdict, ruling that Peng Yu shall not bear any civil liability in this case, confirming his brave acts and making a judgment at the same time. The court made an apology to Peng Yu and restricted him to make a public apology to Peng Yu in the provincial newspaper of Qinxi Province within ten days to restore Peng Yu's reputation.
It can be said that the Peng Yu case has now been revealed
