Chapter 276 From Suspect to Prosecution Witness
Chapter 276 From Suspect to Prosecution Witness
Raymond thought for a moment and said:
"That's exactly what I'm worried about."
"Our funds are limited, so we can't give him too much money."
"Let's give it a try. If it doesn't work, we can only let Ka Kui go."
"However, I am confident that he will agree."
Uncle Fatty nodded, "That's fine. If Ye Haoxuan comes forward, Selena's safety will definitely not be a problem."
"By the way, I heard he has a sworn brother who seems to be the Director of the Lands Department..."
Raymond: "Uncle Fatty, your information is behind."
"He has been transferred to the Municipal Bureau as director."
"He is also my former police academy classmate, Chief Inspector Wong of the Central and Western District Police Station, and his brother-in-law."
"Given my relationship with Director Huang, I think I can get him to talk to Director Gu."
"As long as Director Gu comes forward, do you think Ye Haoxuan can refuse?"
Uncle Fatty: "That's a good feeling."
"I heard that Director Gu treats his sworn brother very well."
"As long as Director Gu is willing to come forward, can Ye Haoxuan not give him face?"
Raymond nodded and said, "There's no time to lose. I'd better call now."
......
More than half an hour later.
"I don't understand, why are you the only one who can be released on bail?"
Zhu Tao's lawyer and Selena said as they walked into the Mong Kok Police Station.
He is a lawyer, so he naturally understands the interests involved.
This time, Zhu Tao and others were arrested. Given the seriousness of the case, no one can be released on bail, no matter who it is.
However, the police informed him that Selena could be released on bail.
He had to have some doubts about this.
He snorted coldly and glanced at Selena who had been silent the whole time. "You are really lucky."
The policewoman brought them in and took them to the serious crime unit. She said to a policeman:
"They're here to see the Director."
The police nodded and said, "Please wait a moment."
As he spoke, he picked up the phone and called the director's office.
The lawyer pointed at Selena and said, "After you meet with the director, you can leave."
Just then, Chen Jiaju walked in.
After the police finished the call, they put down the phone and said to the lawyer:
"You can go in."
Chen Jiaju glanced at Selena, opened the door and walked in.
Selena snorted coldly and followed him.
Raymond pointed to the stool in front of him and said, "Please take a seat."
After Selena and the lawyer sat down, Raymond looked at Selena and said:
"Miss Fang, you can leave now."
Selena's face lit up with joy, and just as she was about to stand up, the prosecutor came over with an A4 paper.
"Wait a moment. Before you leave here, please accept this court summons."
"You'll appear in court when the time comes."
As he said that, he handed the A4 paper in his hand to Selena.
As soon as Selena took it, it was taken away by Zhu Tao's lawyer.
She raised her head, looked at the prosecutor, and asked:
"What are you accusing me of?"
The prosecutor laughed and said:
"We haven't sued you. Your status has now changed from a suspect to a prosecution witness."
Zhu Tao's lawyer frowned and stood up, "Oh, sorry..."
Then, pointing at Selena, he said, "My client doesn't intend to do that."
Prosecutor's lawyer: "We are not seeking the client's consent now."
"Under the law, she has no right to refuse."
Zhu Tao's lawyer naturally understood this.
He sat down with a helpless look on his face.
The police do have the right to do so.
Uncle Fatty, who had been standing there silently, looked at Chen Jiaju who was standing behind Selena and said:
"Officer Chen, from now on, you will stay with Ms. Fang 24 hours a day to protect her safety."
“Until he appears in court.”
Chen Jiaju: “Ah?”
"Ask me to protect her?"
When arresting Zhu Tao, Chen Jiaju and Selena had a misunderstanding.
Neither of them had any affection for each other.
Especially Selena, she can even be said to hate Chan Ka Kui.
Raymond had already persuaded Ye Haoxuan to protect Selena.
Selena is a great beauty, so Ye Haoxuan is of course happy.
Even if it doesn't cost money, it's fine.
He is not worried that cooperating with the police will arouse suspicion from the community.
After all, he runs a security company.
As long as there is money to be made, it doesn’t matter who the partner is.
However, to be on the safe side, Raymond wanted Chen Jiaju and Ye Haoxuan to protect Selena together.
It would be good for the two of them to take care of each other.
Of course, he also consulted Ye Haoxuan.
Ye Haoxuan didn't object, as he had a good impression of Chen Jiaju anyway.
Uncle Fatty: “Isn’t it good?”
"However, we have already invited the boss of Ye Security Company."
"You are a member of the police force, working with him. In other words, the two of you are protecting Miss Fang together."
Chen Jiaju: "No?"
"They even call a security company to protect witnesses. Do they think we, the police, have no one left?"
Of course, Chen Jiaju had heard of Ye Haoxuan's name.
He didn't have a good impression of Ye Haoxuan, even though they had never met.
Because he felt that he was a soldier and Ye Haoxuan was a thief.
Uncle Fatty: "Are you questioning your boss?"
Chen Jiaju hurriedly stood at attention and shouted:
"Don't dare!"
Uncle Fatty: "If you don't dare, just follow our instructions."
Chan Ka Kui: “YES SIR!”
Selena stood up, "I don't want his protection!"
She had never seen Ye Haoxuan, nor had she heard of Ye Haoxuan, but she had a very bad impression of Chen Jiaju.
The prosecutor said in a deep voice:
"As long as he doesn't harass you, you can't refuse."
Selena sat down angrily.
then.
Looking at Zhu Tao's lawyer, the latter nodded, indicating that he agreed with the prosecutor's words.
Uncle Fatty: "Officer Chen!"
Chan Ka Kui: “YES SIR!”
Uncle Fatty: "You have to listen carefully. A police officer protecting witnesses must understand that prosecution witnesses may be threatened, interfered with, and harmed at any time..."
"or attempt to intimidate, disturb or harm..."
"or intentionally intended to intimidate, disturb or injure..."
"So you and the head of the security company will be responsible for protecting Miss Fang's safety."
"It must not only be safe, but also not hinder or infringe upon her personal freedom."
"do you understand?"
Chen Jiaju shouted, "I understand."
then.
He whispered to Uncle Fatty who had already approached him:
"Can we find someone else to go?"
Uncle Fatty: "While you are responsible for witness protection, the government will provide you with an additional allowance."
"Thirty-two dollars and eighty cents a day..."
"This number was decided long ago."
“It hasn’t been adjusted yet.”
"It's not enough to put some on yourself."
"That's all."
Raymond looked at Selena and said:
"Miss Fang, we have a few words to say. We would like to talk to you alone."
Zhu Tao's lawyer stood up and said;
"I object to my client being cross-examined without a lawyer."
Prosecutor's lawyer: "We are not questioning her."
"I just wanted to remind her to listen to matters of personal interest. You don't need to be too nervous."
The police still have rights.
As a lawyer, he naturally knew this.
Helplessly, he sat down and whispered to Selena:
"You can refuse and ignore them."
