Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 901 The dust has settled, the witness becomes the criminal in court
A week has passed since Huo Zhaotang was successfully rescued and the current legal proceedings began.

This period of time is neither long nor short, but it is enough for the National Security Bureau to do a lot of things.

What's more, extremely efficient work ability is one of the reasons why the National Security Department is famous in the police force.

Just as Wang Kun said, after kidnapping Huo Zhaotang, he immediately sent the female secretary who had colluded with him out of Hong Kong Island.

But in the final analysis, Wang Kun was just a gangster hanging around Yunli Street in Kwai Chung.

Although he is arrogant and unruly, he is simply not worthy of being on the stage in the entire underworld of Hong Kong Island.

His so-called smuggling channels, within the TUI intelligence network, are no different from lice on a bald man's head.

As long as the National Security Department is willing to launch an investigation, it will be able to find solid clues immediately.

"Mr. Wang Kun, the witness has now returned to Hong Kong Island."

The prosecutor glanced at Wang Kun indifferently, with a sneer on his face.

"If you want to see her, I can arrange for her to appear on the witness stand in a moment."

How could he forget Wang Kun’s arrogant attitude just now?

Watching the criminals' moods fall from heaven to hell has always been his favorite hobby.

This time, since Wang Kun was dejected because he realized he had said something inappropriate, there was no need for the district presiding judge to continue emphasizing court order.

The current situation is clear. The confession video of Huo Zhaotang's female secretary and her availability to testify at any time have completely established the victory for the police force and the Department of Justice.

The only difference is that the criminal prosecutor from the Department of Justice has other incriminating evidence in his hands.

"Prosecution, please continue to present your evidence!"

At the request of the district judge, the prosecutor continued to present other evidence.

It was also the work of the National Security Department of the police force, but it had nothing to do with the kidnapping of Huo Zhaotang.

Subsequent evidence included detailed evidence of Wang Kun and He Weile's drug trafficking and involvement in triad crimes.

For a single kidnapping case, even if it is tried in the Highest Court of Hong Kong Island, the sentencing standards must comply with the rules of Hong Kong Island law.

But if we add charges such as drug trafficking and involvement in illegal triad activities.

Especially when it comes to drug crimes, even if Wang Kun and He Weile can only be regarded as small-time robbers, the scale of their crimes is definitely not measured in grams.

For this charge alone, both of them received a starting sentence of ten years in prison.

After careful sentencing, and considering the other charges, these two gangsters will never have the chance to leave Stanley for the rest of their lives.

This is how Hong Kong implements the Basic Law. If they followed the laws of their hometown in the Mainland, they would definitely have to eat peanuts.

As all the evidence was displayed, Wang Kun and He Weile looked as if they had lost their parents and they no longer had the arrogance they had just had.

With the mountain of irrefutable evidence before their eyes, even if the two of them hired a famous lawyer, he would not be able to save them.

At this point in the litigation process, there is no possibility that the balance of victory will be shaken.

The two gangsters, He Weile and Wang Kun, will definitely be tried and imprisoned, while Zhang Debiao and his brothers can be dealt with by the police force themselves.

After all, as He Weile said, the recording cannot serve as independent evidence.

But the prosecution's actions did not end with the presentation of all the evidence.

It was not the prosecutor from the Department of Justice who stood up, but Jing Jinxian, who was representing the police force in Tai Kwun to listen to the court proceedings.

"Your Honor, based on the evidence we have so far, we have reason to suspect that witness Huo Zhaotang is suspected of giving false testimony."

After smoothing out the wrinkles on his suit, Jing Jinxian said solemnly, "Therefore, we request that Huo Zhaotang be detained in court!"

As the person in charge of the aftermath of this case at the National Security Bureau, Jing Jinxian knew Huo Zhaotang's situation best.

It must be said that there is no lack of filthiness among the wealthy families in Hong Kong Island. Although Huo Zhaotang cannot be considered a wealthy family, he is even worse in this respect.

The reason why he betrayed his savior against his conscience was that Wang Kun had something on him.

This is not a threat from Wang Kun to the personal and property safety of others, and Wang Kun does not have the strength to do so.

No matter what, as a major shareholder of Huo’s Bank, Huo Zhaotang could not be short of money.

After experiencing a kidnapping incident, he will definitely increase his protection against personal safety issues.

Huo Zhaotang's weakness, or his lifeline, lies in his female secretary.

His legal wife had no son, but his secretary and lover happened to be pregnant with a boy.

Today, Hong Kong Island implements monogamous marriage laws.

Huo Zhaotang's legal wife not only has a powerful family background, but also owns shares in Huo's Bank.

This meant that Huo Zhaotang could never divorce the other party and could only support his lover and illegitimate child.

But it just so happens that this lover of his also has an improper relationship with Wang Kun and He Weile.

This led to the case of his kidnapping and his betrayal of the East Kowloon Police District.

Jing Jinxian was too lazy to pay too much attention to Huo Zhaotang's private life.

But this ungrateful man actually betrayed his brother in court. As Zhang Debiao's elder brother and police captain, how could he ignore it?
If this was not a solemn court trial, Jing Jinxian would probably have simply waved his hand as a signal and arranged for the bailiffs responsible for maintaining order in the court to start arresting people.

There are no official bailiffs in Hong Kong Island. All police officers who maintain court discipline and order are part of the Hong Kong Island Police Force.

As a superintendent of the National Security Department of the police force, he has full authority to transfer these brothers.

However, within the court, the presiding judge is the real authority core, so he made an application to the district presiding judge.

"agree!"

The presiding judge also disliked Huo Zhaotang's behavior and immediately nodded to agree to Jing Jinxian's proposal.

Immediately, the outermost bailiffs began to move out and arrested Huo Zhaotang, who had given false testimony, in court.

"Boom!"

When the courtroom was calm and orderly, the presiding judge slammed the gavel in front of him.

"Defendant Wang Kun, defendant He Weile, do you have any other objections?"

Faced with the overwhelming evidence before their eyes, the two gangsters naturally had no room for excuses.

The presiding district judge only asked routine questions, and then in less than two seconds, he turned his gaze to where the jury was.

“Did the jury have a unanimous verdict?”

Obviously, with such irrefutable evidence, how could the jury possibly exonerate the two gangsters?

"We unanimously ruled that the two defendants were guilty of leading kidnapping, trafficking and transporting drugs, and engaging in triad activities!"

A judge of the Court of First Instance stood up as a representative and formally announced the convictions of Ho Wai-lok and Wang Kun.

"Boom!"

Another sound of the gavel fell, like the morning bell and evening drum, and the district chief judge officially issued the verdict on the two defendants in this litigation process.

"Now, I officially pronounce the verdict. The defendant is He Weile and the defendant is Wang Kun!"

"Sentence both defendants to life imprisonment for multiple crimes!"

"This verdict is final and no appeal is allowed!"
