Comment: The rough translation of this page makes it hard to understand what this is about. Is there a corresponding page on zhWiki that this got translated from? We tend not to cover anything but the most noteworthy criminal cases per WP:NOTNEWS. I am also a bit hesitant here because about half the sources are Chinese state media, which are not a reliable source, and the tone reflects that.

The Zhao Fuqiang case (the original theme is "赵富强案" in Chinese), also known as the Xiaohonglou Case in Hanyupinyin and the Little Red House case (小红楼案) in Shanghai[2], refers to a series of triad-related incidents in the Taipu (泰浦) District of Shanghai, China, spanning from the 2000s to the 2020s.
Zhao Fuqiang (born March 4, 1973), a shareholder of Shanghai Wanji (万际) Culture and Media Co., Ltd..[3][4], previously held the operational rights to the Safe Shanghai (《平安上海》) program on the Shanghai Rule of Law Channel. Originating from rural Taixing in Jiangsu Province, he began offering housing rental services upon moving to Shanghai's Taipu District in the 1990s. Zhao is accused of monopolizing housing resources through fraudulent means and employing violence to collect rent during lease negotiations. The verdict reveals that from October 2017 to March 2019, he used violence and coercion, resulting in the rape of five women a total of 13 times[5]
Zhao Fuqiang facilitated a network involving several female sex workers, bank officials, and employees of state-owned enterprises in the rented office building, including Lu Yan (卢焱), secretary of the political and legal committee of the Yangpu District CPC Committee.[5][6][7]. In 2014, Zhao purchased a six-story building located at 632 Xuchang (许昌) Road in Yangpu District, naming it Chuangfu Building (创富大厦)[3], which translates to "Creative and Rich." This building is approximately 200 meters from the Yangpu District Government and the Yangpu District Women's Federation, also known as Xiao Honglou[5]
Filing and investigation
[edit]In November 2018, a woman lodged an official complaint with the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Supervisory Commission of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai, accusing Zhao Fuqiang of raping and harming women, as well as bribing officials with money and favors. In January 2019, she reported the rape case to the Yangpu Public Security Sub-Bureau.[5][8]
In the first half of 2019, Lu Yan, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of the Yangpu District Committee, learned from Cen Hongquan(岑宏权), the Yangpu Sub-Bureau Deputy Director that Zhao Fuqiang was under investigation by the Bureau. Lu Yan subsequently informed Zhao Fuqiang about the ongoing investigation. On the morning of May 15, 2019, Lu Yan informed Zhao Fuqiang in his office that authorities were preparing to immediately arrest him, advising him to leave Shanghai as soon as possible. That night, Zhao Fuqiang fled back to his hometown in Taixing, Jiangsu by three women. Around 1:00 PM on May 16, the police arrested Zhao Fuqiang and others in Taixing.[5]
Due to the involvement of numerous officials and occurring during the special campaign to eradicate organized crime and eliminate corruption, this series of cases was not only investigated by the public security authorities but also overseen by the Central Anti-Corruption and Anti-Crime Office (also known as the "National Anti-Corruption Office").[9][10] On July 29, 2019, Wu Yuliang, the head of the 16th supervision team of the Central Anti-Corruption and Anti-Crime Office, provided feedback on the supervision situation to Shanghai, emphasizing a focus on resolved and ongoing cases related to organized crime and corruption. The directive included a thorough investigation into the network of relationships and protective umbrellas behind these cases. On the same evening, Lu Yan, a member of the Standing Committee of the Yangpu District Committee and the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, underwent disciplinary review and supervision investigation by the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Supervisory Commission of Shanghai.[5]
Litigation and trial
[edit]On June 30, 2020, the second Branch of the Shanghai Municipal people's Procuratorate initiated a public prosecution against a series of cases.
At the end of September 2020, the Shanghai No. 2 Intermediate people's Court pronounced sentences on a series of cases, among which 38 people, including Zhao Fuqiang, were sentenced on September 22.[11]
After the judgment of the first instance, 19 defendants, including Zhao Fuqiang, filed an appeal. The case was submitted to the higher authorities, and the Shanghai higher people's Court tried the appeal case. On December 8, 2020, the Shanghai higher people's Court conducted a second trial.[12] The trial process claimed that the trial was held in private "because of privacy concerns".
On December 30, 2020, the Shanghai higher people's Court delivered a final judgment.[1]
Judgment result
[edit]On September 22, 2020, the Shanghai Municipal No. 2 Intermediate people's Court sentenced Zhao Fuqiang to death with a two-year suspended sentence and sentenced 37 other defendants to prison terms ranging from two years and six months to 20 years. On December 30, 2020, the Shanghai higher people's Court finally upheld the original judgment.[1]
In the Zhao Fuqiang case, at least 13 state functionaries and cadres of state-owned enterprises were involved in the case, such as:
- Lu Yan, member of the standing Committee of the Yangpu District CPC Committee and secretary of the political and legal Commission, was sentenced to 17 years' imprisonment in the first instance.
- Ren Yongfei (任湧飞), president of Yangpu District Court, was sentenced to 7 years and 6 months in prison;
- Hu Chenghao (胡程浩), the former director of Pingliang Road (平凉路) Police Station, and Sun Zhendong (孙震东), deputy director, were sentenced to 4 years and 1 year and 6 months in prison respectively for harboring Zhao Fuqiang's underworld organization and condoning the organization's illegal and criminal activities;
- Cen Hongquan, deputy director of the Yangpu Branch of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau, once disclosed the case filing status to Lu Yan and was investigated in 2019.[13] His follow-up is unknown.
