wang yong said that although the liusan prison was equipped with cameras and signal jammers, with the connivance of the prison guards, he saw with his own eyes that inmates used cash to gamble for a long time and secretly used mobile phones to communicate with the outside world. after he was released from prison, he also received a video chat invitation from the inmates of no. 63 prison.

lawyer interpretation

regarding wang yong’s real-name report,lawyer huang ruijun from zhejiang yuhua law firmanalysts believe that this matter involves multiple legal issues.

if the internal management of the prison is chaotic, and the inmates are gambling and using mobile phones, etc., it is a violation of the relevant provisions of the "prison law of the people's republic of china", and the prison may need to bear corresponding administrative responsibilities or even criminal liability.

if prison guards fail to perform their duties or even condone violations, they may be suspected of dereliction of duty. according to the provisions of article 397 of the criminal law of the people's republic of china, any state functionary who abuses his power or neglects his duties during his official activities, causing serious consequences, will be held criminally responsible.

lawyer huang ruijun believes that if wang yong’s claims of injuries and delayed treatment during his sentence are true, the prison may be liable for corresponding medical damages. according to article 1218 of the civil code of the people's republic of china, medical institutions and their medical staff shall bear tort liability if they cause damage to patients due to their fault during diagnosis and treatment activities.

"according to the provisions of article 110 of the criminal procedure law of the people's republic of china, any unit or individual has the right to report criminal acts. as a whistleblower, wang yong's legitimate rights and interests should be protected by law, and reporting behavior should not undue interference or retaliation." lawyer huang ruijun said, "wang yong has reported the relevant situation and relevant evidence to the disciplinary inspection department of liusan prison, and the case has entered judicial proceedings in accordance with the criminal procedure law of the people's republic of china. it stipulates that judicial organs should handle cases independently and impartially in accordance with the law and ensure a fair trial of the case.”

lawyer yao jianwei from beijing weiheng law firmxiang "fadu law" stated that according to some provisions of the "general provisions" of the "prison law of the people's republic of china", prisons implement the principles of combining punishment and rehabilitation, education and labor for criminals, so as to transform criminals into law-abiding citizens. prisons should supervise criminals in accordance with the law, organize criminals to engage in productive labor based on the needs of reforming criminals, and provide ideological, cultural and technical education to criminals. it can be seen that the primary task of prisoners in prison is to receive education and reform, strive to become law-abiding citizens again as soon as possible, and prepare for returning to normal society in the future.

lawyer yao jianwei said that prisoners living in prison should strictly follow the work and rest schedule set by the prison. obviously, gambling is strictly prohibited, and there are corresponding rules and regulations regarding the time and method of communicating with the outside world.

"gambling requires playing cards and other gambling equipment, and communicating with the outside world requires mobile phones and other communication tools. these illegal items can exist in prisons for a long time. it would be impossible without the long-term connivance of prison guards. this means that these illegal items are directly responsible for the management prison guards who live and communicate with inmates may have violated the provisions of article 397 of the criminal law. if there is a result of "causing serious losses to public property, the interests of the country and the people", it can constitute the crime of dereliction of duty. "lawyer yao jianwei said.

lawyer yao jianwei also mentioned that prison guards often have direct interests in the process of allowing prisoners to use gambling equipment to gamble or use mobile phones to communicate with the outside world in violation of regulations, and they need to pay attention to whether they are suspected of committing bribery crimes.
