The murderer served 15 years on paper and still served as a village official. What case did he commit that year?

In recent days, a new term has appeared on the Internet? Paper prison sentence.

The origin of this term is the case of Batu Menghe, a man from Hulunbuir, Inner Mongolia. In 1992, Batumenghe, a man from Hulunbuir, Inner Mongolia, killed his friend and was sentenced to 15 years in prison. But strangely, he did not serve a day in jail.

Subsequently, what is even more puzzling and outrageous is that this murderer who was supposed to be in prison became the local accountant, was elected as the village director, and was even elected as the local people's congress representative. As soon as the incident was reported, it aroused heated discussion among the public, and the new term "paper sentence" has successfully become a familiar vocabulary in recent times. So let us first take a look at the cases Batumeng and he committed that year.

At that time, 17-year-old Batumeng and the victim had been good friends since childhood, and they often interacted with each other. But in 1992, at Batumenghe's house, the two had a dispute over mahjong. The victim first slapped Batumenghe several times. Batumenghe may have felt insulted at the time, and in a moment of anger, he attacked the victim with a knife. He was stabbed three times in the chest and right shoulder.

Subsequently, the victim died from massive bleeding caused by a ruptured heart. The next year, Batu Menghe's verdict came out and he was sentenced to 15 years in prison. But after that, he went back to the village directly and never spent a day in prison?

The victim’s mother was confused and angry, and ran around to report the problem. Finally, in 2017, Batumenghe was imprisoned and will serve 15 years in prison. Although Batumenghe is now imprisoned to serve his sentence, the problem has obviously not been resolved.

A murderer who was sentenced to 15 years in prison was not jailed for a day and was elected as a local political cadre. Who played a role in this?

According to the opinion of special commentator Bai Yu, after many years, simply supplementing the sentence is not enough to reflect the fairness of the law. There must have been some major or minor doubts in various processes such as medical appraisal and public security approval back then, which led to the occurrence of such a joke. The departments and persons in charge of each link should bear corresponding responsibilities.
