On the afternoon of September 19, 2019, on the back hill of a village in Daxing Town, Yongshan County, Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province, a large number of public security police officers were speeding along the rugged mountain road, as if something terrible had happened on the mountain.
After a while, the police comrades came to a blank space at the top of the back mountain and found a hidden cave on a land covered with blue tiles.
"Finally..." I don't know who breathed a sigh of relief, and then the faces of everyone all showed a happy smile. Soon, the case-handling personnel who entered the cave brought out from the cave an old man with a dirty face, covered in dirt, like a wild man.
"It's been 17 years! You're finally willing to show up. The police quipped, but the old man could not say a word. It turned out that the elderly at this time had not communicated with people for a long time, resulting in the degradation of language function and slight barriers to communication.
The atmosphere at the scene was warm and moving, and even the case-handling staff stepped forward to help the old man smooth out the messy hair, everyone you look at me, I look at you, and tears are in my eyes.
But the next second, there was a crackling sound, and a silver glittering handcuff was cuffed to the old man's hand. It turned out that this person was not a homeless "homeless man", but a fugitive Song Moujiang who was hunted down by the police for 17 years.
Escape from prison
Song Moujiang, a native of Daxing Town, Yongshan County, Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province, was arrested by the Sichuan police in 2002 for abducting and selling women and children, and was immediately sent to a labor reform farm in Liangshan Prefecture, Sichuan Province.
Song Moujiang was immediately fifty years old when he was sent to prison, he was still thin and small, and the fellow prisoners in the same room all loved to bully him, plus Song Moujiang came in because of the abduction of children, although everyone was a criminal, but especially looked down on him, after all, there are many prisoners who have their own children.
Similarly, the prison guards do not want to see such a person, and when they see others bullying him, as long as they are not too much, they have the right not to see it. Song Moujiang's life every day
Very depressed.
The people serving sentences in prison have a specific time to carry out labor reform every day, and Song Moujiang is no exception, but his work is often more than other people's, and the reason is not him, but because he often steals and slips when he first comes in, so the person in charge constantly increases his weight as punishment.
Every day, Song Moujiang regrets what he did at the beginning, because if he had not done the abduction and trafficking of women and children, although he could not be rich and wealthy, he could also live freely in his hometown, and how could he not be bullied like now.
However, there has never been a regret medicine under the heavens, and No matter how difficult It is for Song Moujiang, he can only suffer day by day.
The turning point of the matter was when the collective labor was a day, and Song Moujiang was cursing and grinning in his heart while watching the supervisors. Suddenly, Song Moujiang found that there was a small hole under the wall, which looked like a dog hole, not big, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to get through.
But Song Moujiang is different, Song Moujiang was born thin, if you squeeze it, it is still no problem to go out.
As soon as he thought that he could go out through this small hole, Song Moujiang's heart thumped, and he secretly glanced at the bystanders and found that no one noticed his abnormality.
Song Moujiang breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart began to struggle, do you want to run out?
If you don't run out, you will have to endure this endless sentence and the endless bullying of others; if you run out, you will have nowhere to go, and if you are caught, you will definitely have to sit on the bottom of the prison.
After finishing his labor, Song Moujiang, who was worried about his heart, returned to the ward, and this time he did not listen to the jokes and ridicules of the criminal personnel in the same room, and he was full of thoughts about what he should do.
However, he did not have the energy to care about other people's provocations against him, and the other party did not get his response but was unwilling, so he went up and gave Song Moujiang a shoulder.
Song Moujiang looked up in pain, and the other party looked at him condescendingly and provocatively: "What? defy? Want to fight? ”
Song Moujiang stared at the other party angrily for a long time, and finally he could only bow his head helplessly. At night, Song Moujiang tossed and turned in bed, and the bullying of his roommate became the catalyst for his escape from prison, and he began to carefully plan how to escape.
The first is to be discovered as late as possible when escaping, because the later you find out, the greater the chance of success; secondly, you must try to hide your whereabouts as much as possible, and you can't let the police find yourself quickly following the clues;
In addition, we must choose a suitable foothold to facilitate our own hiding, and we can also have certain materials to keep ourselves alive.
It is not enough to prepare these few things to escape from prison, but Song Moujiang can only think about it for the time being, because it is not necessary to find that hole plugged at any time.
Everything is ready only thanks to the East Wind, song Moujiang just needs to find another suitable time.
Soon, the opportunity was caught by him, and he took advantage of the gathering of the supervisors for a meeting, and sneaked out of the hole, running all the way without even daring to turn his head.
The prison system may not have been perfect at the time, and a long time had passed by the time the supervisors found out that something was wrong.
Hunt
Song Moujiang's escape from prison is a major incident, and the relevant departments of the prison and the police have set up a tracking team to track down the whereabouts of Song Moujiang. However, it is also strange to say that an ordinary old man can escape the pursuit of the police and have been at large.
Because many pursuits have been fruitless, the Sichuan police listed it as an online fugitive and handed it over to the public security organ of Yongshan County, where he was registered, to pursue him as a key target for a long time.
The police have never given up on the search for Song Moujiang, but Song Moujiang is like evaporating in the human world.
Because he is the focus of long-term pursuit, whenever there are major festivals such as the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Spring Festival, the Yongshan police will always pay extra attention to his whereabouts when carrying out special operations to pursue and escape.
I thought I would be able to catch him in a few days, but I didn't expect that this search would be 17 years.
After escaping from the farm labor reform, Song Moujiang went into hiding and returned to his hometown of Daxing Town, Yongshan County, and lived in the old house.
Presumably, everyone will be very curious, how come the police can't catch him when they go home?
I have to say that Song Moujiang still has a certain brain, when he went home, he deliberately picked it in the middle of the night, locked the door during the day to go to the back of the mountain, and then came back to sleep after dark.
However, within a few days, there were police officers who came to the door, and Song Moujiang fled in a panic, not even having time to pack up his things, and fled to the back mountain for a night.
Sensing that it was not safe to go home, Song Moujiang did not go back, and Zhun Ben wanted to make a temporary place to stay by himself, wait for the wind to pass, and then go to Sichuan to resume his old business.
In the back mountain, Song Moujiang really found a cave where he could hide, but the cave was very narrow, less than 2 square meters, and it was difficult for adult men to stand up.
However, this location is also an excellent hiding place, the cave is on a steep cliff, under the stone wall in the middle of the cliff, the location is extremely hidden, whether from high, low or flank it is difficult to find people living here.
At the same time, the vegetation on the mountain is dense, extremely difficult to climb, and the roads in the woods are longitudinal, and it is easy to get lost, so few idle people come up the mountain, which also greatly reduces the chance of Song Moujiang being discovered.
Song Moujiang lived in the cave for a while, but the "sound of the wind" did not pass as quickly as he thought, and from time to time, the police would enter the village to investigate his whereabouts.
Song Moujiang did not dare to let anyone know that he was in the back mountain, and when he was hungry, he could only dig up wild vegetables, and when he was thirsty, he picked up the mineral water bottles left by tourists on the mountain. Fortunately, the climate in Yunnan is more suitable, even if it is winter, his life is not too difficult.
In the mountains, Song Moujiang rarely bathed, his hair was long and he cut it himself, and no one could speak yet, so he gradually became more and more silent and more like a wild man.
Arrested
In 2019, according to the national policy, the Yongshan County Public Security Bureau once again listed Song Moujiang as a key target for hunting, and even set up a hunting team to arrest Song Moujiang.
In early September, as it approached national day, members of the hunting team began to work overtime to search for the whereabouts of Song Moujiang.
Soon, the pursuit team found out the whereabouts of Song Moujiang, and according to various clues, Song Moujiang may be hiding in his hometown.
However, there was no one in the old house of his hometown, and it was certain that he was not hiding in the home of his relatives, so where could he be? Soon, the hunting team set its sights on the mountain behind Song Moujiang's old residence.
Speculating that it may be hiding in the deep mountains, the members of the hunting team immediately searched for the mountains, but because the mountains were large, the mountains were steep, the vegetation was dense, and the place where Song Moujiang was hiding was very hidden, the search did not see any trace of Song Moujiang for several days.
Is the clue wrong? Or did Song Moujiang already hear the news and fled?
However, combined with the existing clues, no matter how to see Song Moujiang is hiding in the back mountain of his hometown, the pursuit team is not willing to give up even the slightest opportunity, and after consultation, everyone decides to apply to the county public security bureau to send more drones to participate in the search.
Steep mountains, complex terrain, dense vegetation, pedestrians standing in it is difficult to find clues, drones in the sky is not necessarily to see.
In this way, on the morning of September 19, the drone operation police sent by the county public security bureau rushed to Daxing Town with a drone to meet the pursuers, and conducted aerial reconnaissance of the area where Song Moujiang might be hiding according to the description of the members of the pursuit team.
The mountain is so large that the drone can see even if it is overhead, and the observer must be very careful not to miss any important clues.
After observing for nearly 5 hours, the police found a blue steel tile on the steep cliff through a drone.
Why are color steel tiles placed there? Who will put the colored steel tiles there?
Everyone stood up excitedly, the drone operation police carefully operated the drone slowly approaching, the scene below became clearer and clearer, and soon, the cave under the color steel tile appeared in front of everyone's eyes, outside the cave, all kinds of domestic garbage can be seen everywhere.
"This is where Song Moujiang is hiding!" The police shouted excitedly.
"Don't make your conclusions so early, don't make your conclusions so early, let's go up and have a look!"
Therefore, in order to avoid the grass snake being slipped away by Song Moujiang, the police carefully formulated a plan, and then went straight to the back mountain.
The arrestees were divided into three groups, one lurking in front of the cave and two trying to sneak around from behind the cave to carry out the arrest.
When the police who carried out the arrest approached the cave, they saw a "wild man" boringly tearing paper in the cave to "relieve boredom".
The moment he saw the police appear, the "wild man" threw everything in his hand in shock, and it was too late to run, and the police quickly controlled him.
After confirmation, the "wild man" is Song Moujiang, who has been fleeing for 17 years. At first, Song Moujiang was not willing to tie his hands and grab it, shouting loudly: "Rob people!" Rob people! ”
However, after determining the identity of the police, Song Moujiang also gave up the struggle and truthfully confessed his identity.
be executed
Song Moujiang was arrested again, he is 63 years old, because of hard work, he looks older than his peers, his body is full of dirt, his hair is long and short, and his physical condition is even worse.
After being arrested and returned, Song Moujiang informed the police handling the case of his escape in detail, so that the police could not help but marvel, how could anyone still prefer to run to the deep mountains and old forests to be a wild man, rather than reform in prison and strive to come out as soon as possible?
In the process of talking with the police, the police also found that Song Moujiang had a long-term lack of communication with people, his language expression was not smooth, and there were slight obstacles to communication.
In the 17 years since his escape from prison, he has lived in a stone wall cave of less than 2 square meters and ordinary people cannot stand straight, for a long time without washing or bathing, by using plastic bottles to fill the ravine with water, picking up dry branches to cook on fire, and living a secluded life.
17 years of loneliness and bitterness, I believe that few people can have such perseverance.
Escape from prison is not advisable, before there are cases where the elderly take the initiative to commit crimes just to go to prison for the elderly? Even if the inmates are not good to him, he does not feel free, but if he behaves well, he will always come out;
However, Song Moujiang tossed and turned like this, when he could come out again, it was not certain.
However, Song Moujiang's experience also sounded an alarm bell for us, don't do illegal and criminal things because of coveting temporary pleasures, don't think that you can always escape if you are smart, skynet is restored without leakage, and no one can really do it.
Someone said: "The life in the deep mountains and old forests is estimated to be not as good as his life in prison, and if he does not escape, it is estimated that he has already been released after completing his sentence, and the gains are not worth the losses." ”
Another person admired him, saying: "This wild survival ability, people alone 0 equipment 0 food is not even allowed to make a fire, if not caught, he can live in the mountains until he dies", I don't know whether it is praise or ridicule.
