An arrest of a wanted criminal is only 4 yuan?Folk reward platform: This is just a crowdfunding part of netizens

Jimu Journalist Ding Peng

Recently, a suspect named Ouyang Zhipeng attracted the attention of netizens because his wanted reward amount was only 4 yuan. On August 28, Jimu Journalists learned that 4 yuan is the crowdfunding amount of netizens on the "people's bounty" on the civil platform, and it is not the police's reward amount. The founder of the platform told reporters that his original intention of establishing the platform was to help crack down on crimes, without any profit, and no one received bounty for public welfare donations.

A screenshot passed on the Internet shows that the amount of a criminal suspect Ouyang Zhipeng's wanted reward amount was only 4 yuan, and above him, another criminal suspect Zhang Aijun's wanted reward amount was 10,000 yuan.

This screenshot caused heated discussion among netizens. Everyone was curious about such a low reward amount: "This person may be a scam gang to clean the dormitory." Some people teased: "When you feel that you are not valued, no one cares about it. Take a look at this. "

Jimu Journalists inquired about the website of the Ministry of Public Security and found that on June 9, 2022, the Ministry of Public Security issued A -level wanted order and publicly wanted 12 major leaders and backbone personnel of telecommunications network fraud groups, including Li Lin, Liu Fengliang, Ouyang Zhipeng, Zhu Zhenkui, etc. However, there is no reward amount in the wanted order. Ouyang Zhipeng's 4 yuan reward from the Internet comes from an app called "People's Bounty". At noon on August 28, the reporter logged in to the People's Bounty APP and found that Ouyang Zhipeng's bounty on the platform had increased to 16 yuan.

Mr. Yuan, the person in charge of the people's bounty app, told Jimu Journalists that in the wanted order of Ouyang Zhipeng and others issued by the public security organs, the specific bonus quota was not stated. Therefore, in the wanted information reposted by the people's bounty platform, the amount of rewards only showed the crowdfunding part of the netizens, and the public security organs were displayed as zero.

The reporter found that Zhu Zhenkui, one of the 12 electrical criminal suspects issued by the Ministry of Public Security in June, has only 10 yuan on the people's bounty platform, of which the public security organs are also zero. The reporter further retrieved the platform and found that there are still many rewards for the wanted suspects from tens of thousands to millions of yuan. These rewards are provided and announced by public security organs at all levels. For example, the criminal suspect Liu Quanfu's reward amount is 20,0002 yuan, of which 200,000 yuan is a reward of the Harbin police, and 2 yuan is a reward for netizens.

"Everyone is responsible for cracking down on crimes." Mr. Yuan introduced that the people's bounty platform was founded by him in his spare time. The long -time wanted information was obtained from official channels. The original intention of establishing a platform was to fight against crimes.

Some netizens have questioned whether the people's bounty platform has raised bounty to netizens. Is it suspected of illegal fund -raising or even fraud? In this regard, Mr. Yuan said: "The crowdfunding bounty system can increase the amount of bounty to the greatest extent, increase the participation and enthusiasm of public reporting, so that the 'professional pursuit' rises to 'everyone chase', forming a strong pursuit of pursuit The momentum has aroused widespread concern in the society and has nowhere to escape the suspects. But our platform has no profit. The bounty that the suspects are unattended after the suspects are arrested are used as a donation of public welfare. "

Attorney Chai Xin, a law firm at Beijing Dacheng (Wuhan) Law Firm, said that if the wanted criminal information on the people's bounty platform comes from the wanted websites of the relevant national departments, they will not involve infringement of personal privacy or illegal law. However, the website should ensure that the information provided is accurate and updated in real time, so as to avoid the arrest of the wanted criminals, and also solicited the bounty and crowdfunding for the public. The bounty raised by the website should be disclosed in real time or regularly, so that the public will know the direction of funds and ensure that the participants have a basic right to know.
