Recently, Shanghai Putuo police successfully arrested a fugitive who had been on the run for 31 years in Heze City, Shandong, and had gone under the alias "Wang Ming". On the evening of January 22, 1991, a case of intentional homicide occurred in a residential area of Caoyangxin Village, Putuo District. Due to the worsening of family conflicts, the criminal suspect Wang killed his 67-year-old mother-in-law and seriously injured his 70-year-old father-in-law and stepson Xiao Lu. After
received the report, the Putuo police immediately set up a task force led by the Criminal Investigation Team to investigate. Since several hours have passed since the time of reporting the crime, Wang has already fled in fear of the crime and disappeared. To this end, the special investigation team carried out a comprehensive investigation around Wang's social relations, and found that he was married from Anhui to Shanghai, and he had almost no relatives or friends in Shanghai. The task force was limited by many factors such as the working conditions and investigation techniques of the year, and the investigation work of the case was at a stalemate for a while. The turnaround appeared 31 years later. At the end of July 2022, the police in Putuo obtained an important clue. The Criminal Investigation Team of the Municipal Bureau, through the latest criminal science and technology, found that Wang Ming (pseudonym), a woman living in Heze, Shandong, was related to the crime. The biological evidence that Wang left at the scene is highly consistent, and the comprehensive comparison of age, height and other characteristics are very similar.
So, the task force conducted a visit and investigation around the experience of the suspicious woman Wang, and found that Wang had married from Anhui to Heze, Shandong in 1991. This time point coincides with the time when Wang murdered and absconded in Shanghai 31 years ago. "1991", "Anhui" and "Woman surnamed Wang", many keywords focus on one person, and combined with multiple evidences, it is very likely that Wang Ming is Wang who has been absconding for many years.
On August 17th, on the basis of a lot of previous work, the task force captured "Wang Ming" in a community in Heze, Shandong. After
arrived at the case, facing the police's detailed evidence, "Wang Ming" confessed to the crime of intentionally killing his mother-in-law 31 years ago. Wang Ming is Wang who murdered and absconded in Shanghai. He and the victim's son met in Anhui in 1987 and went to Shanghai to marry and live. After marriage, there were family conflicts with relatives such as in-laws and sisters.
On January 22, 1991, Wang had a quarrel with his mother-in-law over trivial matters. Because of long-term grievances, Wang committed a murder case on impulse. After committing the crime, Wang fled Shanghai immediately and met a man on the way. After concealing his name, Wang accompanied the man to his hometown in Shandong to live together until now. After 31 years, Wang, who thought he could spend the rest of his life as "Wang Ming", is currently under criminal detention by Putuo police on suspicion of intentional homicide, and the case is in the process of further investigation.
