Wang Yongming’s gang affiliation case in Baotou City, Inner Mongolia, attracted public attention. A few days ago, the police of Baotou City followed the lawyers of the case to Hohhot City and forced them to transfer their legal fees in full into the police account, calling the legal fees “stolen money”. Chinese netizens criticized that the judiciary system of Baotou City is totally rotten.
The case of Wang Yongming went to trial at the Baotou Intermediate People’s Court on July 11. A picture and a video taken during the trial sparked discussion and attracted public attention. In the picture, one of the defense lawyers and a renowned jurist, Xu Xin, stared at a group of bailiffs who were screaming at him. One of the bailiffs screamed and pointed at Xu Xin with his arm extended.
