47 democrats in Hong Kong were suspected of participating in or organizing the "35+" primary election in July 2020, and they were charged with the crime of subverting the state power.The sentence was previously sentenced to avoid the risk of the actual sentence that exceeded the actual sentence, but it was rejected.
Comprehensive Sing Tao Daily Ming Daily and the Internet media "Hong Kong 01" reported that 29 of the 47 people who were charged were guilty, 18 people planned not to plead guilty, and split into two cases for handling.16 of them confessed to the defendant on Wednesday (January 11) as early as the West Kowloon Magistrate Court conducting case management hearing.
16 defendants include: Yuan Jiawei, Liang Huangwei, Xu Zijian, Mao Mengjing, Feng Dajun, Liu Zefeng, Huang Zhifeng, Zhu Kaidi, Huang Ziyue, Wu Min'er, Tan Kaibang, Liu Yingkang, Fan Guowei, Lu Zhiheng, Cen Aohui and Wang Baiyu, of which only are of them, of which only of them are of them, only of whichHuang Ziyue and Lu Zhiheng were allowed to bail.In addition, He Guilan and Wu Zhengheng, who have not pleaded guilty, also attended the hearing.
Among them, Yuan Jiawei, Wu Min'er, Fan Guowei, Mao Mengjing, Liu Zefeng, Huang Zhifeng, and Feng Dajun's seven defendants hoped to sentence them as soon as possible.The seven people said that they had to be sentenced before the trial of another case to avoid the risk of the occurrence period exceeding the actual sentence.The three National Security Law designated judges and high -court judges on Wednesday to handle the application of case management and hearing, but they ruled that the sentence of the defense defendant must be treated after the case was concluded before handling, and the reasons for the selection of the ruling were issued on the day.
The deputy criminal prosecution commissioner of the Hong Kong Department of Justice said that seven defendants who requested the early processing of prison believe that if they are waiting for the interrogation, they will be sentenced to "serious risks" to make them extra sentences.However, Wan Dehao pointed out that the interrogation is expected to end in June this year, and the defendant will be detained for two years and three months. If their final penalty starting point is more than five years, even if the behavior is reduced and the guilty deduction is reduced, the crime deduction is reduced.There will still be no time to serve.
He continued, the prosecution accused the defendant of disintegrating the parliament through the preliminary intention, forcing the special resignation and stopping the government, and the case was extremely serious.Even if the court adopts the quantification standard for "primary or crimes or major crimes" in the law, that is, the minimum torture period for 10 years of prison is not unfair. Besides, all the defendants in the case actively participate in the primaries and promote the destroy of the government and parliament.The subordinate level must be sentenced to three to 10 years in prison. It takes about six and a half years to adopt the median number. If there is no serious risk, they will cause them to worry.
Wan Dehao also said that if he was sentenced before the trial, the court would listen to the pleading of the defendant's pleasure.On the other side, there may be new certificates after the case starts. If the characters in the case involved in individual defendants, etc., they find that the confession supply and seeking are involved."Turn", causing injustice.
Cai Yi, a barrister on behalf of the defendant Wu Min'ner, said that sentence of prison as soon as possible can reduce the risk of injustice in prison, and the court should not have any assumptions on sentences.However, the judge questioned how to measure risks if he did not make assumptions, and the consistent practice was to confess the convicted defendant and the trial defendant after the interrogation.
On behalf of the defendant Fan Guowei's barrister Wu Yiyi pointed out that the case involved complex crimes and the documents were cumbersome. It is inevitable that the risk of the actual sentence during the trial period would be delayed during the trial.
