according to media reports, on the afternoon of september 27, in response to xiaoling's death, the "henan kezhen development service co., ltd. incident" joint investigation team established by the relevant departments of zhongmu county stated that the investigation team was deeply saddened by xiaoling's unfortunate death. and regret. at present, the investigation team of this incident is doing its best to comfort the family members and deal with the aftermath, and is conducting a comprehensive investigation into henan kezhen development services co., ltd. the instructor involved in the case, wu, was criminally detained on september 3, and was submitted to the zhongmou county people's procuratorate for approval on september 24. the person in charge of the company, ma, has been subject to criminal compulsory measures in accordance with the law.

fu jian, a well-known criminal defense lawyer and director of henan zejin law firm, believes that with xiaoling's death, the case may turn into a criminal case involving negligence causing death or intentional injury causing death. if the investigation confirms xiaoling's death, if it is directly related to the instructor's corporal punishment, the instructor may face more serious criminal charges. at the same time, the procuratorate and the court will characterize the instructor's behavior based on evidence and legal provisions and make corresponding legal judgments. due to the unfortunate death of xiaoling after the case was sent to the procuratorate, wu's charges have changed significantly. the procuratorate will usually return the case to the public security agency, but it may not return the case and directly change the charges.

according to previous media reports, because xiaoling was tired of studying, mr. wang sent her to the kezhen quality development camp on june 27, hoping that she would learn chinese studies and receive psychological education. during the training, mr. wang repeatedly proposed to go to school to see his daughter, but was rejected by the school. mr. wang’s wife also proposed to make a video call to the child, but the school also refused. mr. wang and his wife can only learn about their daughter's condition through the photos sent by the teacher. in the photos, their daughter has always been in good health.

on august 27, mr. wang suddenly learned that his daughter was sent to the hospital, and he immediately drove from beijing to the hospital overnight. when he arrived at the hospital, he found that his daughter was covered in injuries, and then he learned that his daughter had written three letters asking for help to him, but they had been intercepted by the school. after that, xiaoling was in a coma. mr. wang said in an interview with the media that when xiaoling was exhausted, the instructors from the development camp dragged her out in the sun and tied her hair to a pillar.

on september 4, zhongmou county issued a notice stating that when wang was participating in physical training at henan kezhen development service co., ltd., the instructor wu subjected him to corporal punishment such as forcing him to stand and dragging him, causing wang to suffer minor physical injuries. wang is now in the hospital and his condition is stable. at present, wu has been subject to criminal compulsory measures in accordance with the law, and the case is being further processed. henan kezhen development service co., ltd. has been shut down and is being banned in accordance with the law.
