On July 5th, China News Service contacted the Jiexiu police, and the staff who answered the phone stated that the three perpetrators of bullying were under 14 years old. At present, the matter is still being handled. If there are any new exhibitions, we will inform you.
According to Xia Hailong from Shanghai Shenlun Law Firm, the behavior of bullies may be suspected of insulting, but if the perpetrator is under fourteen years old, criminal responsibility will not be pursued. From the perspective of civil infringement, a person under the age of fourteen is considered a person with limited capacity for civil conduct, and their legal representative should compensate the victim. In addition, if a person under the age of fourteen violates public security management, they shall not be punished, but their guardian shall be ordered to strictly discipline them.
Lawyer Lan Tianbin, Senior Partner of Jiangsu Fade Dongheng Law Firm, believes that three bullies who force boys to eat feces, seek stimulation, vent emotions, and act arrogantly are suspected of provoking trouble. However, if the three bullies are under fourteen years old, they will not be held criminally responsible and parents should discipline them severely.
Lan Tianbin introduced that according to the provisions of the Criminal Law, individuals who have reached the age of sixteen and committed crimes should bear criminal responsibility. Individuals who have reached the age of fourteen but not the age of sixteen and commit crimes such as intentional homicide, intentional injury resulting in serious injury or death, rape, robbery, drug trafficking, arson, explosion, or the release of hazardous substances shall bear criminal responsibility.
If a person who has reached the age of twelve but not the age of fourteen commits the crime of intentional homicide or intentional injury, causing death or serious disability through particularly cruel means, and the circumstances are heinous, and is approved for prosecution by the Supreme People's Procuratorate, they shall bear criminal responsibility.
Individuals under the age of 18 who are held criminally responsible in accordance with the provisions of the first three paragraphs shall be given lighter or mitigated punishment. Those who are under the age of sixteen and are not subject to criminal punishment shall be ordered to discipline their parents or other guardians; When necessary, provide specialized corrective education in accordance with the law.
