Among them, the first offender Li Shuai was born in March 1994.
The court found after trial that in the second half of 2016, the defendant Li Shuai, together with others, had long-term gatherings at KTV and other places in Guali Town, Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou, and joined a WeChat group called "Zhongyi Tang" to communicate, contact and take care of each other.
After that, the defendant Li Shuai further recruited people and established a triad-type organization headed by him, with the "Zhongyi Tang" WeChat group as the contact network, with the defendants Zhao Wei, Xie Jiashu, Lu Xing and others as the backbone, and the defendant Luo Bin and others as participants.
In order to maintain the stability of his organization and increase its economic strength, the defendant Li Shuai used his own savings and financial assistance from others to organize long-term KTVs in several KTVs in Guali Town, Xiaoshan District from the end of 2016 to November 2017. For party activities, they arrange accommodation and provide vehicles for members of the organization, and conduct unified management of steel pipes, machetes and other crime tools; they also gather people to gamble, help others fight and "prop up the scene", and obtain financial benefits by forcibly seizing other people's property in KTV and other commercial places. From the second half of 2016 to November 2017, members of the defendant Li Shuai's organization carried out more than ten criminal activities such as fighting, gambling, intentional injury, and picking quarrels and provoking troubles in Xiaoshan District, resulting in serious consequences such as two serious injuries of the second degree, two minor injuries of the first degree, three minor injuries of the second degree, and several minor injuries. Some of the video materials of the organization's fights, weapons, and gatherings were disseminated through the Internet.

After the trial, the court held that the defendant Li Shuai, together with others, formed a relatively stable criminal organization with a large number of people, clear organizational leaders, backbones and participants, and organized to obtain economic benefits through illegal and criminal activities. The organization has carried out fourteen illegal and criminal acts. It has the organizational, economic, violent and controlling nature of a gangster organization's crimes, and is recognized as a gangland organization according to law.
Based on the defendant’s crime facts, nature, circumstances and degree of social harm, the court made a judgment in accordance with the law.
Except Li Shuai, the other defendants were sentenced in the first instance to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from 1 year and 2 months to 10 years, and were also fined or confiscated of property.
High-quality and efficient capture of 11 gang members
In December 2017, when Xiaoshan police were investigating and collecting evidence about a fight, they discovered that some of the people involved had participated in multiple fights.
As the investigation deepened, a gang of underworld organizations headed by Li Shuai and others gradually surfaced. After investigation, the gang was suspected of repeatedly committing illegal and criminal acts such as gathering people to gamble, provoking troubles, and intentional injury in Guali, Xiaoshan and other places, posing a serious threat to the people in the jurisdiction.
Xiaoshan police quickly mobilized capable police forces to set up a task force. After more than a month of in-depth operations and analysis, in the early morning of January 9, 2018, the task force implemented centralized network closure in Wenzhou, Jinhua , Shaoxing , Hangzhou, Xintang, Guali, Nanyang, Xiaoshan and other places. After the case was closed, the task force went to Hunan, Guangxi, Jinhua and other places to arrest fugitives.
arrest scene.
After Li Shuai and others were arrested, in line with the principle of targeting accurately, deeply and thoroughly, the Xiaoshan District Anti-Crime Office and the District Public Security Bureau worked closely together, each performing their respective duties, and quickly took a number of effective measures to promote the smooth investigation and handling of the criminal cases of Li Shuai and other gangster organizations.
During the investigation of this case, the Xiaoshan District Public Security Bureau started by verifying each case, extracted the "four characteristics" of organized crimes of a mafia nature, closely combined the individual cases with the "four characteristics", and then systematically sorted out and summarized them according to The four-stage process of "investigating individual cases, extracting characteristics, collecting detailed evidence, and then summarizing" targeted the members of the organization to carry out detailed investigation and evidence collection, especially focusing on the extraction of electronic evidence and audio-visual materials, to restore the criminal facts of Li Shuai and others to the greatest extent. At the same time, the Xiaoshan District Procuratorate intervened in the case in advance, dispatched personnel to guide the investigation and evidence collection immediately, and put forward relevant opinions and suggestions on the fixation of evidence and the application of the law.
After the case was transferred for review and prosecution, the Xiaoshan District Procuratorate implemented group handling of the case, focusing on the obvious organizational characteristics of the Li Shuai case, such as clear hierarchies, unified contact, unified food and accommodation, centralized entertainment, condolences and condolences, mutual protection, and rules and regulations. It conducted a qualitative analysis and screening of the case, and comprehensively analyzed the "four characteristics" of the underworld organization in the Li Shuai case. At the same time, the Xiaoshan District Public Security Bureau assigned two police officers to the district procuratorate to quickly investigate and fix issues that needed to be supplemented in case handling. In the end, the Li Shuai case involving 20 defendants and 47 case files was successfully prosecuted to the district court in only 45 days.
The Xiaoshan District Court prepared in advance and designated a capable judicial force to handle the case. Based on the requirements of the trial-centered criminal procedure system reform, it strictly grasped the evidence and legal aspects of Li Shuai's case, and determined that Li Shuai and others had committed 14 criminal acts in accordance with the law, and applied Article 294 of the Criminal Law to sentence Li Shuai and others. Especially in the judgment of this case, the court paid attention to the criminal policy of combining severe punishment with leniency. For example, the organizer and leader Li Shuai was sentenced to 15 years in prison for several crimes, deprived of political rights for two years, and all personal property was confiscated. Lin Shijie, an ordinary participant, was sentenced to 1 year and 2 months in prison. In terms of sentencing, the leaders, organizers, active participants, and ordinary participants were divided and disintegrated, treated differently, and achieved better results in handling the case.
In the process of handling the criminal cases of Li Shuai and other gangster organizations, Xiaoshan District explored and improved the relevant working mechanisms, focusing on treating both the symptoms and the root causes, forming a work pattern of "party committee coordination, anti-crime office coordination, and public prosecutorial and legal advancement", which provided a strong guarantee for the handling efficiency, case quality, and handling effect of the case, and also provided a model for the handling of similar cases in the future.
Li Shuai and others were escorted out of the court.
In the next stage, Xiaoshan District will take the successful conclusion of the Li Shuai case as an opportunity to further strengthen the coordination functions of the district committee leadership and the district anti-crime office, further mobilize the masses to participate in the anti-crime and anti-crime work, and further promote the joint management and joint management of all departments in the anti-crime and anti-crime work. At the same time, we will further promote the investigation and investigation of clues and the handling of gangster cases, and further improve the long-term mechanism to curb gangster crimes from the source; achieve the goal of "wiping out gangsters with gangs, eliminating gangs without gangs, and controlling chaos without gangs", and resolutely win an overwhelming victory in the special fight against gangs and gangs.
