How Much Does A Mink Coat Cost?

An attempt was made to steal a mink coat in the shop, and was seized by the clerk and sent to the traffic police.

The price of mink coat has become the key evidence for finalizing the case. The price bureau has identified more than 10 thousand yuan, but the price provided by the stolen shop is less than 5000 yuan. Which is right and wrong?

Guo Yanping, a female prosecutor of Jianghan Procuratorate, investigated in depth the false testimony and successfully prosecuted the suspect.

Yesterday, the offender Qiu Mou was sentenced to 1 years by the court.

In November 25th last year, Qiu and others were in the face of the white horse mall in Hankou. They took a Persian Lisa's black sable coat into the satchel carried by the shop assistant when they were not prepared, and were arrested by the clerk when they wanted to leave the scene.

After being appraised by the price department, the mink coat is worth more than 1 yuan, and then the police pferred the case to the procuratorial organ on suspicion of theft (attempted).

Since then, Qiu's family has been constantly crying out and providing witnesses' testimony and recording materials, which proves that Qiu's behavior is not "stealing", but rather mistakenly put it in the bag.

The family also provided the purchase certificate of the injured shopkeeper, which proved that the value of the mink coat was between 2900 yuan and 4800 yuan, rather than the 10500 yuan appraised by the price department.

Guo Yanping, prosecutor, held that the testimony and audio-visual materials provided by his family were collected on their own and could not be used for legal evidence.

But how should the price of the mink coat be accepted?

According to the relevant provisions of the criminal law, the starting point of theft (attempted) should be more than 10 thousand yuan, less than 10 thousand yuan, and no criminal penalty can be imposed.

Cautiously, the prosecution once again reviewed the price of mink garments to the price department.

After being rejected for some reason, Guo Yanping found a breakthrough from the files. The victim had a statement about the purchase channel and the number of the coat.

Guo used the Internet to find a fur factory in Guangzhou to produce leather clothing.

After going to Guangzhou to verify, the mink coat is priced at 10500 yuan.

Accordingly, prosecutors prosecuted Qiu's theft case.
