However, the purpose of this public arrest rally was to deter criminals and bring justice to the people. Therefore, they were all brought to the podium.

Naturally, no one would care about their human rights.

Heavily sinful!

However, former state officials such as Wei Yingqiu and Wei Mingyi were also brought to the stage. When the county standing committee held a meeting, some comrades raised objections, thinking that this was not a good idea.

The reason given by those comrades was: it was not decent.

After all, Wei Yingqiu and Wei Mingyi were both cadres, holding high positions. Just a few days ago, they were "comrades," members of the team. Now that they had "made a mistake," they certainly needed to be punished, but the proper method and approach were crucial, preferably handled internally.

It didn't seem appropriate to be tied up and taken to the stage with those hooligans, and to lose face in front of tens of millions of people.

It's a slap in the face of the entire cadre team.

A few comrades were worried that if this happened, the cadres would lose all prestige among the members.

Liu Hongyi rejected it outright without hesitation.

"A cadre's prestige cannot be established by hiding things."

“It is established through openness, fairness and justice.”

"The ancients said that if a prince breaks the law, he will be punished just as severely as a commoner. Are we any less worthy than the ancients?"

"Wei Yingqiu, Wei Mingyi, and their gang haven't made any mistakes. They've committed serious crimes. They've framed innocent people as criminals, forced them to confess, and tortured them. They've taken human life with a cold shoulder. If this happened in ancient times, they'd be beheaded."

"Now, just letting them show up in front of the whole county is already a great bargain for them."

"Are the lives and property of the people less valuable than their dignity?"

"Comrades, what is the most important point in cadre team building?"

"That's the spirit of integrity!"

"No matter who it is, if they commit a crime, they must be punished!"

Although Liu Hongyi has only been in office for four days, he has already established a very high prestige within the Zhuang'an County Party Committee.

Part of this prestige comes from the strong support of Tai Zhengyang and Fang Zimu, but more comes from Liu Hongyi himself.

This new county party secretary, who looked incredibly young, was so ruthless in dealing with this special situation that no one expected him to do so.

Through the handling of this case, all the cadres in Zhuang'an understood one thing: on matters of principle, the new secretary will not make any compromise or tolerance.

To be honest, most cadres still admire this.

A top leader should have this kind of integrity.

Liu Hongyi's suggestion was passed with great force.

Wei Yingqiu, Wei Mingyi and others, who were originally majestic and arrogant, were directly tied up and taken to the podium.

Thousands of people in the audience burst into laughter when they saw how miserable they looked.

Many people felt very relieved.

Of course, Nong Guochang, who also bears important responsibilities in this case, did not come to the stage.

He is still staying at the Discipline Inspection Commission.

After all, he was only the deputy secretary of the county party committee, and neither the Zhuang'an County Party Committee nor Liu Hongyi had the power to dispose of him. However, it seemed he couldn't escape his fate this time; he would definitely be fired and face imprisonment.

But Liu Hongyi also knew that someone would definitely plead for him.

It’s not too late to deal with it then.

In addition, the Zhuang'an County Party Committee and the public security, procuratorial and judicial teams have also undergone certain adjustments.

After preliminary investigation, it was found that a member of the county party committee, a deputy county magistrate, and the chief prosecutor of the county procuratorate were also involved in this case and were guilty of dereliction of duty. All of them have been suspended and are under investigation by the Ningzhou Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The Ningzhou Municipal People's Procuratorate urgently appointed a new chief prosecutor.

The one that suffered real "heavy losses" was the County Public Security Bureau, because they were the specific handling unit, and the County Public Security Bureau's Criminal Investigation Team was almost "annihilated."
