Gu Chen directly called the witness!
And this witness happened to be an employee recently fired by Rui Mao Bank.
The girl said, "Honorable Judge, I was the bank employee who initially handled business for Zhao Jun."
"Rui Mao Bank has performance targets, we have meetings every day where we’re encouraged to find ways to get people to buy insurance and financial products, so we can earn money from it."
"Rui Mao Bank specifically instructed us to target older people for buying insurance and financial products, and then deceive them. The Head of the Legal Department, Zhang Hongxiang, said he would take responsibility, claiming that no one could win a lawsuit against Rui Mao Bank."
"So I intended to offer Zhao Jun financial products from the bank..."
"But Zhao Jun’s wife, Niu Xiajuan, was always recording on her phone, so I didn’t handle the financial products, and eventually, I processed a deposit for Zhao Jun instead."
"Judge, I can prove that Zhao Jun originally processed a deposit."
"I can also prove that Rui Mao Bank prevented withdrawals unless they could prove ’My father is my father,’ ’My husband is my husband,’ otherwise our salaries would be deducted."
"After the incident, Rui Mao Bank shifted all the blame to me and then fired me."
"To keep me quiet, they even gave me five thousand yuan as hush money."
"I have recordings and evidence from many years of work."
"I believe... I should stand up and reveal the truth."
"Additionally, I have the following evidence... because the vice president and managers of Rui Mao Bank often held meetings with us, frequently pushing us to attract customer deposits to boost performance and find ways to trick customers into buying financial products."
"Although I wanted people to buy financial products, I struggled internally. I found that even if customers didn’t buy financial products, the bank would find ways to convert deposits into financial products and insurance."
"The 300,000 in Zhao Yishan’s father’s bank card was also forced to be transferred by our bank’s manager."
"I didn’t want to, but the manager said it was the president’s idea, telling me to transfer it away because Zhao Yishan couldn’t repay the 300,000 loss at the bank, claiming it was legal to take the father’s debts onto the son, and forced me to transfer the money."
"Even the vice president came to talk to me... I had no choice, thankfully I recorded it, I have the evidence, Rui Mao Bank wants to pin everything on me."
"Rui Mao Bank claimed that the missing 300,000 was because Zhao Jun didn’t handle a deposit but opted for financial products and insurance instead."
"So Rui Mao Bank shifted the blame onto me, saying it was due to my negligence and had nothing to do with the bank."
"In reality, they had already planned for me to bear the responsibility...."
"Now Rui Mao Bank will definitely claim that I secretly converted the money into insurance and intended to embezzle these 300,000... Fortunately, I have evidence, otherwise, I wouldn’t know how many years I’d be imprisoned."
The girl presented her evidence one by one.
She was very afraid that Rui Mao Bank would pin all the responsibility on her, and she didn’t know how long she would be imprisoned in that case.
Luckily, the girl had been carefully collecting evidence in her daily routine, and she had been fearful of this day.
Her sole intention at the bank was just to earn her salary.
But working at the bank wasn’t that easy.
She had to meet targets, bring in deposits, and failing to fulfill tasks resulted in scoldings and punishments, and sometimes even taking the blame for Rui Mao Bank...
The girl submitted all the evidence.
Half an hour later.
Judge Wang Zhong: "After thorough examination by the court, the evidence presented by the witness has been verified and meets the necessary legal requirements for admissibility. The court acknowledges the legality, authenticity, and relevance of the evidence."
The online viewers in the live stream were once again in an uproar.
[Damn, Rui Mao Bank is even more disgusting than imagined.]
[They wanted to pocket the 300,000 themselves, so they let a bank employee take the fall, huh?]
[Hahaha, making a low-level employee carry all the blame, classic, bullying the fact that she’s a student who just graduated, right?]
[If Rui Mao Bank truly shirked responsibility, they’d be fine, while this girl wouldn’t know how many years she’d be sentenced to.]
[Luckily she has evidence, otherwise, she’d really be finished.]
[Is this the face of Rui Mao Bank? Lawyer Gu, could you get these old fuddy-duddies from Rui Mao Bank sent in for me?]
At that moment, Gu Chen raised his hand.
Judge Wang Zhong: "Defendant’s lawyer, please speak."
Gu Chen: "Judge, the evidence is clear. Zhao Jun did not handle any insurance or financial business."
"And Zhao Jun’s bank account inexplicably lost 300,000."
"The bank arbitrarily converted Zhao Jun’s 500,000 in the bank account into financial products, and also transferred 300,000 without authorization. Zhao Jun clearly processed a deposit, yet the bank insists it was a financial product."
"Firstly, Rui Mao Bank provided false evidence in court, according to Article 305 of the Criminal Law, which stipulates that in criminal proceedings, if a witness, appraiser, recorder, or translator intentionally provides false testimony, evaluation, records, or translations on important aspects of a case, with the intention of framing others or concealing evidence of a crime, the punishment is imprisonment or detention of up to three years; in severe cases, a term of three to seven years can be imposed."
"In this case, the agent for Rui Mao Bank, Wang Wenxuan, presented false evidence. I request a sentence of three years of imprisonment for Wang Wenxuan."
"Secondly, Rui Mao Bank has mishandled customer funds, and the evidence is indisputable. Though a bank employee misappropriated funds, they did so under the coercion of Rui Mao Bank’s manager, vice president, and president. Subjectively, there’s a clear intention to misappropriate customer funds, and objectively, the act of misappropriation was carried out, with a large sum involved, constituting the crime of misappropriating funds."
"According to Article 401 of the Criminal Law, the punishment is imprisonment or detention of up to three years; for those misappropriating a large sum of funds from their workplace, the term is three to seven years’ imprisonment; particularly enormous sums warrant over seven years’ imprisonment."
"The bank employee was compelled to act and had no intent to misappropriate assets, so they bear no legal responsibility."
"And within the evidence, the president, vice president, and manager of Rui Mao Bank have repeatedly misappropriated client assets over three years, converting client deposits into insurance, fiscal products, etc., totaling above three million yuan."
"I request a ten-year prison sentence for Rui Mao Bank’s president, vice president, and manager, along with compensation for customer losses by Rui Mao Bank."
"Third, repeatedly infringing upon public interests, there’s a request for rectifying the conduct of Rui Mao Bank."
"Judge, that’s the statement from my side."
Police have already approached the plaintiff’s agent from Rui Mao Bank, Wang Wenxuan.
Wang Wenxuan: "??????"
Wang Wenxuan: "Judge, I have something to say! I have something to say!!!"
Wang Wenxuan wanted to speak, wanted to save himself.
He was there just to argue the case as a representative.
But he was the plaintiff.
Now even he was going to be taken away?
