Family goes to Beijing Film Academy to pay respects and "bring the deceased home"
At around 14:00 yesterday, at the gate of Beijing Film Academy, relatives of Wang Qianyuan all knelt down on the ground, shouting, "Sanming ah, come home, we are here to bring you home."
According to the customs of Cangzhou, within three days of a person's death, family members must go to the place of death to call the soul. Wang Qianyuan, Wang Sanming's second elder brother, along with Wang Sanming's sister and his elder brother's wife and other relatives came to Beijing Film Academy to "call the soul" and take "him" home. Several relatives did not place paper money or offerings for the memorial, "They didn't allow us to place them, we are not here to cause trouble, we just want to call him back," said Wang Sanming's sister.
According to Wang Qianyuan's introduction, on the 6th, he and the village party secretary saw Wang Sanming's body at the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau, "They only allowed us to look, not touch. There were many wounds on his chest, different from normal skin." Due to the unclear cause of death, after discussing with the family, Wang Qianyuan signed the "autopsy identification".
"My younger brother was very strong, he didn't have heart disease. If he had any illness, they wouldn't have hired him. He was doing well, that's why he was assigned to clean here. Two days before the incident, he still called me to tell how much money he made," said Wang Qianyuan. His younger brother was a good person in the village, never having conflicts with anyone, so he doesn't know how he could be beaten to death.
"Audi boy" is the PR Minister of Beijing Film Academy Student Union
In the morning of December 7, under the guidance of the property management company's director, Wang Qianyuan and his relatives went to a vice president's office at Beijing Film Academy, "I didn't remember his name clearly, I only knew he was a vice president. He told us that they would definitely give us a satisfactory response, without bias, and later they could let us meet the person who beat him," Wang Qianyuan said to reporters that they currently don't plan to hire a lawyer and are waiting for the police station's autopsy results. Wang Qianyuan said that the police station said it would take 10 days to get the results. When Wang Qianyuan requested to check the scene surveillance, the staff refused him.
According to informed sources, Gong Bohan, the driver of Audi A4 who had a conflict with Wang Sanming, is a student in the third year of the 2009 class of the Film Management Department of Beijing Film Academy, and serves as the PR Minister of Beijing Film Academy Student Union.
Beijing Police find out the situation from the family
At 17:00 on December 7, Director Hao (sound) of the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau responsible for this case went to the hotel where Wang Qianyuan stayed to understand the situation, accompanied by a project manager of the property management company. According to Wang Sanming's elder brother's wife, the people who came asked what their thoughts were, "Repay debts, compensate for life, why should he be killed?" Wang Sanming's family has not yet put forward compensation requirements.
According to Wang Sanming's family, Wang Sanming belongs to the zodiac sign of horse, and is 45 years old this year. Married for many years, then divorced due to his wife's infertility, and then did not remarry, and did not have children, only adopted his second elder brother's son as a stepson, and then came to Beijing to work.
Lawyer: Pursuing responsibility and compensation need to wait for the death appraisal
According to the official announcement of Beijing Film Academy, both parties were involved in mutual assault at the time. If a mutual assault occurs during work, can it be considered a workplace injury? If Wang Sanming indeed had heart disease or other diseases, would it reduce the punishment for the person causing the death? Reporter interviewed Zhang Qihai, the head lawyer of Beijing Lanpeng Law Firm and standing director of China Criminology Research Association.
Zhang Qihai stated that according to the principle of statutory crime and personal liability in criminal law, if the party died due to illegal or criminal activities, it does not count as a workplace injury. It is crucial to see whether there were any violations or illegal acts by the party while on the job to determine whether it counts as a workplace injury.
In addition, if it is confirmed that the victim indeed suffered from a disease, Zhang Qihai indicated that the perpetrator would not be held criminally liable because his actions were only the inducement, but there is still civil liability, and civil compensation can be claimed, but the specific reasons still need to wait for the forensic doctor's appraisal.
