In 1983, during the period of severe crackdown, the process from trial to execution took only half an hour at the fastest

In the 1980s, the central government decided to crack down on criminal cases, that is, to execute a prisoner quickly and severely. A person on trial could be sentenced to death in half an hour. But this way, quite a number of law enforcement officials were overwhelmed with pain. What procedures were needed to execute a criminal at that time? What is the hidden meaning of law enforcement personnel?

In the early 1980s, with the end of political turmoil and the birth of criminal law, China began to move steadily towards the right path of rule of law and reform and opening up. However, society did not achieve real stability and tranquility as expected.

An old police officer in the public security system recalled that in his decades of police service, in the 1950s and 1960s, the most serious case he received was fighting. However, since the mid and late 1970s, the situation has changed dramatically. The reason is that a large number of educated youth have returned home in succession, blocking up the already saturated jobs even more. In addition, just in the wind of reform and opening up, the collision of Chinese and Western cultures has led to a large number of books and movies with foreign colors streaming into China. These educated youth, deeply affected by the bad content, began to follow the lead of criminal activities, such as robbery, killing, insulting women and other vicious events, which began to appear frequently.

In the face of the extremely serious public security situation, Liu Fuzhi, then the minister of the Ministry of Public Security, was very heavy hearted. In order to rectify the social atmosphere as soon as possible, he soon drafted a report, "On Exerting the Functions of Dictatorship to Improve Public Security Equipment", and submitted it to the Central Committee. After reading the report, Deng Gong immediately informed Liu Fuzhi to come to his own residence for discussion. After the two met, Deng said openly that the report could not completely solve the current problems, which should be severely punished in accordance with the law.

Serious criminal offenders must be killed according to law, and they must be constantly severely punished. Otherwise, criminals will not be afraid, and even ten or twenty years will not solve the problem. So under the wise decision of Deng Gong, a nationwide and three-year hard fight began,

In 1983, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the "Decision on Cracking Down on Criminal Activities", commonly known as "strike hard", which means a firm sentence of death, or a firm sentence of death. According to incomplete statistics, under three years of iron and blood means, a total of 176000 criminal gangs were hit, and 1.772 million criminal suspects were arrested, of which 30000 were executed.

At that time, when the criminals were tried, a massive public judgment conference would be held, and a notice would be posted a few days in advance, giving details of the names, numbers and charges of the criminals to be tried. During the period of severe punishment, the government encouraged the masses to watch in order to frighten various criminals and educate the masses. After the start of the public judgment conference, there will be liberation trucks coming into the scene. The vehicles full of armed police soldiers will drive in the front. A heavy machine gun is also mounted on the cab of the car, followed by the vehicle escorting the prisoners. All these criminals have their hands tied back and a sign with charges written on their chest. When the presiding judge has sentenced the prisoners, The staff will mark the specific number of years of sentence on the back of the sign on the chest of the corresponding criminal. Only the sign of the condemned criminal has a big red cross.

Adhering to the policy of "heavier and faster", criminals sentenced to death at that time were all executed by shooting. According to the current judicial process in China, prisoners have to go through a series of trial, appeal and other procedures before executing the death penalty, and before executing the death penalty, the time and place of execution will also be notified to the prisoners' families in advance. However, during the period of severe strike, due to the rapidity and urgency of severe strike, it only takes six days from arrest to shooting. The first trial is the final trial, and there is no tedious trial process at all. However, before the execution of the death penalty, prisoners are usually arranged to meet their families, or leave a suicide note to be handed over to the public security personnel. Before being taken to the execution ground, law enforcement personnel, in order to prevent being transferred, The death penalty should be identified. Generally, each city will set up multiple execution grounds. In order to prevent accidents, the specific execution grounds are determined in the morning of the day.

When the public security escorts the criminals to the execution ground, they will make a final verification. After the confirmation, they will put on a black mask. When death really comes, they will really feel fear. Some prisoners can not even bear great psychological pain, resulting in incontinence in urine and urine, weak legs and even a complete word, What's more, they need the help of armed police soldiers to successfully arrive at the execution ground and the designated place.

There will be four armed policemen beside a condemned person, two of whom are left and right handers. The main task is to control the condemned person so as not to miss during the struggle. The remaining two are the main and deputy shooters. The main shooter obeys the order, checks the gun, loads the bullet, loads the gun, closes the insurance, and shoots. The deputy shooter's role is to prevent the shooter's gun from failing, At this time, the deputy shooter is responsible for executing the death penalty. Since the execution of the death penalty will cause great psychological pressure on the executors, the armed police soldiers who serve as marksmen need to be carefully selected in the army. These soldiers must meet the following requirements, be determined, not afraid of death, and have excellent psychological quality.

When the execution of the death sentence is over, the forensic doctor will come forward to confirm whether the condemned person is dead. First, use a stick with rough surface to poke into the wound of the condemned person for stirring to see whether the body reacts, then check the breath, heartbeat and pulse, touch whether the temperature of the body drops, and finally see whether the pupil of the condemned person is dilated. When the condemned person is confirmed dead, People in funeral homes will take the bodies away and cremate them. Although the fight against violence has become a dusty history, it has dealt a heavy blow to criminal crimes and made indelible contributions to maintaining the stability of social security, promoting reform and opening up and socialist modernization.
