What responsibility will Haidilao bear if a customer dies during a meal in the store? Upstream News reporter interviewed Zhang Gongdian, a member of the Criminal and Civilian Cross-Professional Committee of Chongqing Lawyers Association and senior partner of Chongqing Zhihezhi Law Firm. He believes: "This is an accident. If the merchant fails to fulfill some obligations, it causes the death of the customer, or has a causal relationship with the death of the customer, the merchant will be responsible for the infringement of and needs to bear legal (compensation) liability for the infringement. Judging from the current rumors on the Internet in this case, customers may choke to death by eating tripe. Bite is a common food, and there is no need to be a safety prompt, and there is no evidence to show that the tripe is toxic, so they can only be dealt with as an accident. Judging from the current situation, I personally think that the merchant has no legal responsibility."
