Cctv newsAt present, the webcast platform is developing rapidly. Some people touch the red line of the law in order to attract attention and become famous quickly. Some time ago, Pan Cheng Xiao, a young woman from Baoying, Yangzhou, attracted a large number of fans to watch her live webcast, and even attracted the police, which led to a major case.
Xiao Pan, who is in his twenties this year, found that many peers are playing all kinds of strange live broadcasts or posting interesting small videos, which can attract a large number of netizens to watch. Inspired by this, she had a whim. Since July last year, she has been broadcasting live monkeys on the Internet, and has released several videos of raising monkeys on the short video platform.
In the video, the little monkey wears all kinds of small clothes and sometimes jumps up and down, which is very naughty and lovely. Many netizens have left messages saying that the little monkey is so cute that they want to have one. Some netizens also asked how to buy a little monkey. What Xiao Pan never expected was that it didn’t take long to win a lot of attention and envy, but the police found the door!
Illegal! Buy and raise animals under state protection without authorization.
After comparison, police in Baoying, Yangzhou found that the little monkey in the video has high eyebrow bone, deep eye socket and cheek pouches, which are typical characteristics of macaques. Therefore, the police suspect that the little monkey played by Xiao Pan in the video is probably a national second-class protected animal macaque, and it is illegal to buy and raise national protected animals without authorization.
In the face of the arrival of the police, Xiao Pan said that he never thought that raising monkeys would alarm the police. He usually likes very small animals, and when he saw someone doing this on some live broadcast platforms, he moved his mind to raise monkeys.
Then, how to confirm that the little monkey in Xiao Pan’s video is the national second-class protected animal macaque?
Liu Peng, a policeman of the Public Security Police Brigade of Baoying County Public Security Bureau, Yangzhou CityAt that time, we immediately sent this monkey to the judicial appraisal center of Nanjing Forestry College for appraisal. After the identification of relevant departments, this macaque, the monkey she raised, belongs to the macaque and belongs to the national second-class protected animal.
According to Article 341 of China’s Criminal Law, anyone who illegally hunts and kills rare and endangered wild animals under special state protection, or illegally buys, transports or sells rare and endangered wild animals and their products under special state protection shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years or criminal detention and fined; If the circumstances are serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years but not more than ten years and shall also be fined; If the circumstances are especially serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years and shall also be fined or confiscated.
At the same time, Article 22 of China’s Wildlife Protection Law stipulates that the sale, acquisition and utilization of wildlife under second-class national protection or its products must be approved by the wildlife administrative department of the government of the province, autonomous region or municipality directly under the Central Government or its authorized unit.
See female netizens live broadcast to raise monkeys and contact to buy.
The law clearly stipulates that it is illegal to buy and sell state-protected animals privately, so where did Xiao Pan buy the macaques? Does she have the qualification to legally buy macaques? Xiao Pan said that she didn’t get the qualification to buy and raise macaques, but in June 2017, she saw a female netizen named Xiao Doudou live on the short video platform, and she was deeply attracted by the little monkey in the video.
The female netizen named Xiao Doudou said that she could help Xiao Pan buy a monkey, and the cost was 11,000 yuan. At this time, Xiao Pan didn’t know that the monkey he wanted to buy was the national second-class protected animal macaque. In order to buy a monkey, Xiao Pan also borrowed money from the bank, and then transferred money to the netizen Xiao Doudou through WeChat. Soon after, he received news from the other party that the monkey had "boarded" the bus from Shijiazhuang to Xuzhou.
On the afternoon of Xiao Pan’s transfer to female netizen Xiao Doudou, Xiao Pan came to Xuzhou long-distance bus station and took the monkey to Baoying for breeding. Since then, Xiao Pan has often posted videos and pictures of raising monkeys on short video platforms and WeChat. With more and more videos of raising monkeys, the attention of netizens is getting higher and higher.
Although some netizens left a message to Xiao Pan during the period, telling her that this is not an ordinary little monkey, but a macaque. It is illegal to raise it privately and should be sent to the zoo. However, Xiao Pan was reluctant to send the macaque away and kept it with luck until it was captured by the police. Xiao Pan said that he only saw the cuteness of the monkey, but he didn’t know that his behavior was suspected of breaking the law.
Tracking: whether to store, buy and resell illegal trading chains
According to Xiao Pan’s account, the police vaguely felt that the problems involved were not small. Where is the seller of macaques? Is Pan the only buyer? Will there be an illegal trading chain that specializes in buying and selling macaques?
According to the information provided by Xiao Pan, the police paid attention to the account of Xiao Doudou, a monkey seller, on the short video platform in Aauto Quicker, and found that a young woman with the net name Xiao Doudou and her boyfriend actually operated the account. The content of the live broadcast is mostly the living condition of the little monkey. In the video, the little monkey sometimes holds a bottle, sometimes climbs up and down, and sometimes takes a bath and eats fruit.
The police also found that netizen Xiao Doudou and her boyfriend have raised many macaques. Sometimes in a live broadcast, there will be two or three small macaques, and the macaques appearing in different live broadcasts are different. The investigators roughly estimate that there are as many as seven or eight macaques used to shoot videos.
After careful analysis and investigation, the police believe that in addition to the live broadcast of monkeys and the release of small videos of the living conditions of little monkeys, netizen Xiao Doudou and her boyfriend are also seriously suspected of openly selling macaques.
Moreover, on her homepage, she also clearly wrote, adding micro, that is, adding her WeChat, please talk about buying macaques in detail.
Netizen Xiao Doudou’s live broadcast of raising monkeys has attracted many netizens’ onlookers, and the number of hits has been soaring, even on the popular recommendation. So, did the live broadcast platform notice that it was suspected of breaking the law for her to post videos and related remarks about raising macaques?
Frequent number change, live broadcast, real identity is difficult to confirm.
The police investigation found that whenever the number of video hits of netizens Xiao Doudou soared, the platform would give her a title, but the title did not stop them from broadcasting the monkey live. Frequent live broadcast of changing the number became their countermeasure to deal with the title punishment. Before long, they will re-register their accounts with other identities, and once again broadcast live monkeys and release small videos of monkeys with the nickname of Xiao Doudou. Frequent live broadcast of changing the number brings difficulties in locking the real identity of the suspect. In order to detect the case as soon as possible and rescue the macaque, the police have found out the identities of the monkey seller Xiao Doudou and her boyfriend after many twists and turns. The netizen Xiao Doudou’s surname is Ma and her boyfriend’s surname is Li, both of whom live in Shijiazhuang, Hebei. Immediately, the police rushed to Shijiazhuang. After half a month of arranging, they locked their residence and immediately arrested them.
Spend 8,000 yuan to buy through pet QQ group.
After the arrest, the suspects Ma and Li confessed that at first they all saw netizens live broadcast monkeys, felt cute, and wanted to gain attention, so they moved the idea of buying monkeys. Later, it was introduced that they bought a baby macaque in Henan at a price of 8,000 yuan through a pet QQ group, and raised monkeys live through online platforms such as "Aauto Quicker" and "Volcano".
During the live broadcast, Ma and Li not only won praises from many netizens, but also many netizens asked how to buy them, which made them see the "financial road" and decided to be middlemen to earn the difference.
A total of 16 macaques were purchased in half a year.
After the trial, the police found that in just half a year, the suspects Ma and Li bought a total of 16 macaques. Except for two seized by the police and one that they had given to netizens, the other 13 macaques were sold to 15 buyers involved in the case, including Xiao Pan, distributed in seven provinces including Jiangsu, Inner Mongolia, Shandong and Sichuan.
Trace the source of illegal trafficking in macaques
After finding out that Ma and Li were "middlemen", the police followed the line according to their trading situation and found the source of illegal trafficking in macaques.
After the arrangement, the police locked in the person who illegally sold macaques to Ma and Li, that is, the suspect Bao, who runs a macaque farm in Xinye, Henan. In February 2018, the police arrested the suspect Bao in Nanyang, Henan.
Driven by the interests, the criminal suspect Bao knew that Ma and Li did not have the qualification to buy and raise macaques, but they still made illegal transactions with them. After negotiating the price, Bao usually transported the macaques to a service area in Shijiazhuang by bus consignment, and then Ma and Li took them away and sold them to many parts of the country. For the reason of illegally selling macaques, the suspect Bao gave a perfect explanation.
Criminal suspect Bao MouBecause it is a little monkey itself, he is very charming after they get it. They are all fed good milk powder. I think they are also protecting animals, which is better than me. I think it is out of this idea.
Ignoring the law, privately raising macaques is actually said to be protecting animals. Is Bao’s statement tenable? What is the truth of the matter? The police quickly turned to Anhui, Shanxi, Shandong and other places to find the whereabouts of illegally sold macaques, and found that many macaques had died because of poor feeding.
35 people were arrested and 16 macaques were rescued.
The police investigation found that from June 2017 to the incident, the suspect Bao had sold 36 macaques without the approval of the relevant authorities, including 16 macaques sold to Ma and Li, and the other 20 were sold directly by Bao. Baoying police went to ten provinces and cities successively, and arrested 35 middlemen, sellers and buyers involved, and rescued 16 macaques.
The police sent the rescued 16 macaques to the Wildlife Rescue Center in Zhuyuwan Scenic Spot Zoo in Yangzhou. What about the rescued monkeys now?
Veterinarian Xu introduced that these 16 macaques were only three or four months old when they were first delivered, and some macaques also appeared unsociable. Macaques, as social animals, are not suitable for private breeding, which will do harm to their psychology and body, and parasites on macaques also do some harm to people.
At present, the criminal suspect Bao sells macaques without authorization, and his behavior has been suspected of illegally selling precious and endangered wild animals. Yangzhou Baoying procuratorate approved the arrest of Bao according to law; Ma and Li were separately filed for accountability; 32 buyers involved in the case, including Xiao Pan, were taken compulsory measures by the public security organs.
There are many chaos in the bottomless webcast for fame.
Some people ignored the legal bottom line in order to become "online celebrity", which gave birth to the chaos of webcasting. For example, Xiao Pan and others who illegally buy macaques.
After the trial, the police learned that in the case of illegally buying and selling macaques, the initial motivation of the buyers involved was almost always to raise monkeys to gain eyeballs and seek attention.
In this case, Song, a buyer involved in Shandong, is a well-known local online celebrity. She hopes to attract netizens and attract business by raising macaques.
Multi-platform "wild live broadcast" attracts tens of thousands of people to watch.
What Song didn’t expect was that the macaque he bought at a high price died because of poor breeding, which not only did not attract business, but alerted the police.
In fact, online celebrity, who stepped on a minefield like Song, is not a case. There is more than one anchor who broke the law in order to win praise and attention. In addition to illegally purchasing and raising state-protected animals on the webcast platform, what’s more, they also hunt state-protected animals live on the Internet, which is called "wild live broadcast", sometimes attracting tens of thousands of people to watch at the same time.
An anchor group named "Cui Hua dining tables" on Huya live broadcast platform broadcasted the whole process of hunting wild bamboo rats, which are "national three protected animals". Two anchors angered two captured bamboo rats with branches, causing one of them to be bitten with blood. At present, "Cui Hua dining tables" has been permanently titled by the platform.
In May of this year, an online male anchor in Jiangsu broadcast live bird catching in the wild in order to get a gift for sucking powder, and he will face more than just the title processing. After investigation, the man has captured more than 40 birds of all kinds, all of which belong to provincial key or national three-protected animals. At present, he has been captured by Zhenjiang Forest Public Security Bureau, and the case is under further investigation.
Publishing video of hunting and protecting animals is also suspected of breaking the law.
The release of videos related to hunting and protecting animals can also escape the French Open. An underage netizen in Guangdong posted a video of his father Su’s killing python in the WeChat circle of friends, which attracted a lot of forwarding. After the police found it, they immediately searched the suspect Su’s home and found a State-level protected animal python and eight glass wine bottles, including 12 eagles and 18 snakes with important ecological, scientific and social values. At present, the case has been transferred to the procuratorate for review and prosecution.
The State Forestry Administration said: "We must severely crack down on all kinds of live broadcast platforms suspected of hunting and killing wildlife under state key protection and hunting wildlife under non-state key protection without a license."
Live feeding of state-protected animals and live hunting of wild animals, why are similar illegal live broadcasts repeatedly prohibited? In this regard, what kind of responsibility does the webcast platform need to bear?
Experts believe that behind the attention of netizens, there are attractive economic benefits, and some online celebrity’s legal awareness is weak, which are the reasons why illegal live broadcasts are repeatedly banned. Webcast is suspected of breaking the law, and the network anchor should bear the corresponding responsibility, and even bear criminal responsibility in serious cases.
According to experts, the webcast platform should not only do a good job in verifying the identity of network anchors, but also deal with anchors suspected of violating the law in a timely manner. It should also actively cooperate with the work of relevant regulatory authorities and assume the obligation to report.
In addition, experts also believe that the webcasting platform can do more than just titles, but also strengthen the supervision of popular videos, so as not to be a hotbed of "internet plus crime".
How to deal with the illegal live broadcast of some network anchors after their titles are changed? The Regulations on the Administration of Internet Live Broadcasting Services issued by the National Network Information Office stipulates that live broadcasting shall be managed by classification, and a credit rating management system for Internet live broadcasters shall be established, and a blacklist management system shall be established.
It is worth noting that not only the webcast platform and network anchor are regulated, but also the netizen comment area is not a place of extra-legality. The Regulations on the Administration of Internet Live Broadcasting Service requires that Internet live broadcasting service providers should strengthen the real-time management of live interactive links such as comments and barrage, and be equipped with corresponding management personnel.
