In the distant past, murderers and robbers still have the opportunity to reform as long as they sincerely repent. But in today's rule of law society, everyone must be responsible for what they have done, and society affirms the good deeds of those who have committed crimes later, but society will never spare any criminal who has committed a heinous crime.
Perhaps, this is the meaning of the existence of the law; he acknowledges the confession of the "bad guys", but he still wants justice for every victim impartially.
The early 1990s was a critical period of growing prosperity for New China, during which China's contacts with Russia became increasingly frequent. Since the opening of the K3 train from Beijing, China, to Moscow, Russia, in 1959, many people have been boarding the train to sell some of the country's light industrial products to the Russians.
At that time, Russia's light industry was not developed enough, and the price of some domestic products in Russia at this time was many times higher than in China. As a result, a group of people who transported domestic goods out of the country and sold them came into being, and later these people were called "upside-down masters". Shao Xun was one of these "fallen masters".
The "work" of the "upside-down master" is nothing more than boarding a transnational train to come to a foreign country to earn money, but in the chaotic environment and complex crowd on the train, it is inevitable that some people will have evil intentions.
In 1993, Shao Xun and his companions boarded the K3 train to Russia as usual, but unlike usual, this time Shao Xun and his party's target was not to sell goods, but to rob.
Before the K3 train leaves the train, there are Chinese police to maintain law and order on the train, but after leaving the country, the domestic police will change shifts with the Russian police, and the Russian police will be responsible for the safety of people on the train after leaving the country. But at that time, the Russian police were not concerned about the security work on the train, which made Shao Xun and his party take advantage of the loophole.
On May 26, 1993, after the train arrived in Mongolia, when the domestic police and the Russian police changed shifts, Shao Xun and his party began to operate, armed with daggers, gas guns and other tools, and began to rob with great fanfare.
At that time, this amount was already a windfall, but what was shocking was not only the ransacking of the train by Shao Xun's gang, but also the criminal acts of Shao Xun's gang against the passengers on the car after the robbery. After looting and looting on the train, Shao Xun's accomplices also raped a female passenger on the train.
The robbery of this gang of gangsters was far from over, and the next day Shao Xun and his party got off the train. However, in the evening of the same day, another gang of gangsters boarded the train and once again ransacked the train in the same way.
The case lasted until May 31 of the same year, when after the train arrived in Russia, Shao Xun boarded the train with another gang of gangsters led by "Niu Ben" and committed the same crime three times, this time, the number of women raped on the train rose from one to three, while many passengers were beaten and stabbed to varying degrees.
The impact of the Sino-Russian train robbery is beyond doubt, and in just a few days, four major criminal gangs have looted K3 trains. As soon as the case was reported, it shocked China and Russia, and soon the matter was reported to the central authorities, and the police soon launched a large-scale arrest of the gangsters.
However, at that time, there was no such advanced criminal investigation technology as now, and it was very difficult for the police to handle the case, so the central government ordered the establishment of a special team to investigate and pursue the case.
In the three months from June to September 1993, with the unremitting efforts of the police, 68 of the main perpetrators were arrested one after another, and the court also sentenced these people accordingly, of whom 31 were sentenced to life imprisonment or even death, and 14 were sentenced to the corresponding years of imprisonment.
Since then, most of the criminals in the Sino-Russian train robbery have been punished.
However, criminals are always cunning, and it is inevitable that some people will exploit the backward technology of criminal investigation at that time and successfully escape in the arrest of the police, and Shao Xun is one of the few main criminals who escaped in the Sino-Russian train robbery.
Shao Xun was born in Shanghai in 1972, his education is not high, he dropped out of school and left home to "work hard" after only junior high school, and people who knew him were always used to calling him "Little Shanghai".
After the case was accepted, Shao Xun returned to China under secret arrangements. After returning to China, Shao Xun did not dare to return to Shanghai, for fear that once he returned to his hometown, he would fall into the legal net, and after he had a home that could not return, Shao Xun began to wander around.
After that, it seemed that his conscience was greatly condemned, and Shao Xun fled to a monastery in Anhui, trying to shave his practice and atone for his past, but after staying in the monastery for a month, the abbot of the monastery told him that he was not clean and not suitable for cultivation, and advised him to go back and forth from where.
In 1994, after leaving the monastery, Shao Xun smuggled himself to Hong Kong, where he had some relatives, so he stayed in Hong Kong to work odd jobs for relatives.
Although Shao Xun has no culture, but his observation is extremely strong, and soon, in his contact with Hong Kong people, he found that they like to spend in nightclubs in Shenzhen, so Shao Xun changed his name and surname, forged a false identity Lin Yonghai, and went to Shenzhen to start his own business life.
In 1995, Shao Xun's nightclub in Shenzhen was officially opened, the consumption of the nightclub was not low, and soon Shao Xun earned the first clean money in his life, and after the nightclub income was stable and considerable, Shao Xun began to enter the restaurant and beauty industry. Gradually, Shao Xun's career was on the right track, and the income was considerable.
In 2005, Shao Xun had a relatively gratifying achievement in his career, so in order to evade the arrest of the police and for the development prospects of his company, Shao Xun re-registered in Guangdong with the help of a Hong Kong friend as Lin Yonghai, and Shao Xun's true identity completely disappeared from the world, and the only businessman Lin Yonghai in front of people's eyes has since disappeared.
When his career was in full swing, Shao Xun began to yearn for family life. In 2009, Shao Xun met his future wife, and he fell in love with his wife at first sight, so Shao Xun risked being arrested and met with his parents, and after consulting with his parents, he and his wife received a license.
Subsequently, he bought a villa in Shenzhen and took his parents to shenzhen to live. After this, Shao Xun can be described as a double harvest of love and career, and the days are getting better and better.
But with the passage of time, the smoother and happier Shao Xun's married life became, the more uneasy he felt in his heart.
So Shao Xun began to do charity, he donated to poor students, to help himself can help the children of poor families to go to school; he donated to the elderly, to a certain extent, comforted some lonely empty nesters who have been alone at home for many years. In May 2008, after the Wenchuan earthquake broke out, ShaoXun also donated millions of dollars to the Wenchuan disaster area, making a contribution to the reconstruction of the disaster area.
In early 2010, Shao Xun and his wife gave birth to a son, and the arrival of the child brought his social guilt to the world to the peak. Since then, his greatest daily wish has been to get rid of the dark days of crime and live the life of ordinary people in a down-to-earth manner.
No matter what kind of person Shao Xun had been, in the eyes of those who were funded by him at that time, he was just the kind-hearted Lin Yonghai.
From 1993 to 2011, Shao Xun had been on the run for 18 years. Although his life was getting better and better, he always had a deep uneasiness buried in his heart, and during the 18 years of exile, he never lived in his true identity, and he spent all day worrying about fleeing.
He knew that no matter how he fled, he would be caught one day, and for 18 years he had been carefully atone for his sins and had never done anything bad again. But where there are impermeable walls in the world, paper can't cover the fire after all.
Although Shao Xun has not been heard from for 18 years, in fact, his arrest warrant has been hung on the Internet and has never been withdrawn. The police's pursuit of him has not stopped. Finally, a hundred dense.
In 2010, Shao Xun's father died of a serious illness, and in order to get a death certificate, Shao Xun's mother went to cancel his hukou. The address filled in by Shao Xun's mother when she cancelled her household registration was the address of the villa that Shao Xun bought for her parents after marriage.
The unprovoked ownership of a villa by two elderly people without a fixed income is enough to arouse suspicion, not to mention the parents of the suspect Shao Xun. So the police began to suspect that the house was purchased by Shao Xun.
After that, the police followed the vine to find a melon, and soon investigated a man named Lin Yonghai who often entered and exited the house in the name of collecting rent at the door, and at this moment, Lin Yonghai's true identity no longer needed to be doubted, and the police had basically determined that Lin Yonghai was a criminal Shao Xun who had been on the run for many years.
At the end of 2010, under the investigation of the police, the fugitive Shao Xun was finally arrested at the scene of a public welfare activity. When he was caught, Shao Xun seemed particularly calm, and did not flee around in panic, not even the slightest intention of resisting. Soon, the police arrested Shao Xun.
In the subsequent interrogation, Shao Xun said bluntly: "After 18 years of escape, I have long been tired of living carefully, and now that I have been arrested, I am still at ease." After being arrested, Shao Xun cooperated with the work of the police and confessed to the crime on the 1993 China-Russia train. The interrogation of the criminal Shao Xun began.
On February 9, 2012, Shao Xun's case was officially heard at the Beijing Railway Transport Intermediate Court, and during the trial, the relevant lawyers mentioned that Shao Xun had never done anything bad in the 18 years since he fled, and had been enthusiastic about charity and public welfare, and after his arrest, he was also very friendly and had been actively cooperating with the work of the police, demanding a lighter punishment.
In the end, based on Shao Xun's good performance over the past 18 years, the court sentenced him to 15 years in prison. Shao Xun accepted the court's judgment very much and said in court that it would not appeal. Later, Shao Xun's fugitive accomplices were also arrested one after another, and since then, the Sino-Russian Lecha massacre has finally been completely closed after decades.
In life, love of money is the common nature of everyone, but no matter what age and what kind of living environment you are in, you must always remember - there must be a bottom line, and you must not be a citizen who violates the law.
In fact, in the 18 years that Shao Xun fled, judging from his achievements, he was by no means a mediocre talent, but he did not use his wisdom in the right place, did not stick to his bottom line, and some roads, once they began, there was no way back.
He had done charity for years to atone for his sins, but no one was qualified to forgive him on behalf of the victims in the Sino-Russian train case. It may be just a thought for him, but it is a lifetime of harm to the victim. If you do something wrong, you have to take responsibility.
If you want people not to know, unless you do nothing", everyone understands the truth, and I hope that everyone will take Shao Xun in the train case as a warning, and the future philanthropist "Lin Yonghai" as an example, take every step of their lives, and do not go in the wrong direction at the crossroads of life.
