Cctv newsAccording to WeChat WeChat official account of Shanghai No.2 Intermediate People’s Court, on June 15th, the Shanghai No.2 Intermediate People’s Court held a trial in the first instance to hear the fund-raising fraud case of the defendant Shanghai Tongjiang Investment Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Tongjiang Group) and the defendant Zhang Baoguo.

　　The public prosecutor alleged that the defendant Tongjiang Group, the defendant Zhang Baoguo, together with related companies such as You Wenkai (sentenced) and Hexing Financial Holdings Investment Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Hexing Company), have issued wealth management products by setting up a fund pool, fictitious investment projects or creditor’s rights, repeated issuance, etc. since 2014, and illegally raised funds from the public with high returns and promises to pay principal and interest when due, so as to maintain the capital chain. By February 2019, Hexing Company had illegally raised funds from the public totaling RMB 28.74 billion (all the following currencies are RMB), most of which were used to pay investors’ principal and interest, be occupied by affiliated companies, pay high sales commissions and company operations, etc. A small part of the funds were used by Zhang Baoguo personally for buying houses and stock trading, and the unpaid principal reached RMB 8.12 billion at the time of the incident, involving more than 19,000 investors.

　　The public prosecutor believes that Tongjiang Group, the defendant unit, illegally raised funds by fraud for the purpose of illegal possession, and the amount is extremely huge. As the person in charge directly responsible for Tongjiang Group, the defendant Zhang Baoguo should be investigated for criminal responsibility for the crime of fund-raising fraud.

　　During the trial, the public prosecution agency produced relevant evidence, and the defendant Tongjiang Group, the defendant Zhang Baoguo and their defenders expressed their opinions on the facts, charges and sentencing accused by the public prosecution agency.

　　More than 340 people, including the defendant’s family members and fund-raising participants, attended the trial.

　　The Shanghai No.2 Intermediate People’s Court will decide the case in due course.

　　The day before yesterday morning, two policemen from the police station outside the Beijing West Railway Station Public Security Bureau rushed to Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, and handed 1000 yuan cash to college student Xiao Zhang and his two classmates. On the evening of August 22nd, when these three college students were preparing to go back to school after visiting Beijing, they were in a hurry to catch the train, so they got on a black motorcycle and were asked for 1000 yuan by their owners. After receiving the report from the parents of the students, the management Committee of the West Railway Station acted quickly and recovered the losses for the three college students.

　　Xiao Zhang is a student in a university in Inner Mongolia. He is a junior after school. During the summer vacation, he and two classmates came to Beijing to travel and bought tickets for returning to Hohhot from Beijing West Railway Station at 10 pm on August 22nd. Being unfamiliar with the road, the three men took the wrong subway and failed to catch the train. After hastily changing the ticket, the three talents found that the bus they were going to take did not leave at Beijing West Railway Station, but at Beijing Railway Station. At this time, there is only one hour left before the departure, and Xiao Zhang is in a hurry.

　　Where can I take a taxi? Suddenly, they heard someone shouting from the roadside: "Beijing Station, 15 yuan." Without thinking, the three men made a deal with the shouting man. But at the sight of the man’s car, their hearts were half cold. It turned out that this was a two-wheeled motorcycle, but it was too urgent to think too much about it. The three men got on the car of the man and his companions, and the three motorcycles galloped away to Beijing Station. At this point, it is already 10: 40 in the evening.

　　Halfway there, three motorcycles stopped suddenly, and the man began to talk about the price with Xiao Zhang and them, asking everyone to 350 yuan instead of 15 yuan. "They said that because they ran a red light and went retrograde, they had to add money." Xiao Zhang and others understand that they have been "slaughtered". Time was pressing, so they had to agree to the man’s request. "We don’t have that much money, let them cheaper, a person in 300 yuan. Unexpectedly, after giving it to 900 yuan, one of the men asked us for 100 yuan. "

　　After returning to Hohhot the next morning, I called the police through my parents. On August 24th, after receiving the report, the Urban Management Branch of Beijing West Railway Station quickly started to investigate. Because three college students have returned to school and are unfamiliar with the environment of the West Railway Station, it is impossible to accurately describe the location of the incident. So, the staff added their WeChat, and finally determined the boarding place of the three people through photo comparison.

　　On August 26th, all three men driving motorcycles were found. The Urban Management Branch of Beijing West Railway Station made an administrative penalty decision to confiscate three motorcycles involved in the case, and three motorcycle drivers were also detained by the public security organs.

　　The day before yesterday morning, two policemen from the police station outside Beijing West Railway Station Public Security Bureau came to Hohhot and handed 1000 yuan’s cash to three college students. Xiao Zhang told reporters: "What a surprise!" Ms. Yang, the parents of the students, also expressed her gratitude to the Beijing police and the Beijing West Railway Station Regional Management Committee. She said that she didn’t expect to recover the loss at the beginning of her call. "People also made a special trip for this matter, thank you very much."

　　The reporter learned that it is usually around 35 yuan to take a taxi from Beijing West Railway Station to Beijing Railway Station. The place where Xiao Zhang and others get on the bus is less than 20 meters away from the nearest taxi dispatching station. The Urban Management Branch of Beijing West Railway Station reminds the passengers that the mobility of personnel in the station area is large and the composition of personnel is complex. Don’t neglect the potential risks because of being in a hurry and being greedy for cheap, resulting in property losses and even personal safety injuries. When traveling, you must choose regular means of transportation.

　　According to the relevant person in charge of the Beijing West Railway Station Management Committee, it is the peak period for freshmen to register for admission. Various functional departments in the West Railway Station have strengthened the regulation and guidance of the order of picking up freshmen, and at the same time, more than 260 volunteers have been arranged in the West Railway Station area to provide services around the clock. If passengers encounter difficulties, they can ask the nearest staff or volunteers for help, or call 63345110 to make a complaint.
