胡石明、胡锦林、水贝组织他人偷越国（边）境案，江西省高级人民法院 (People’s Procuratorate of Nanchang City Jiangxi Province v. Hu Shiming, Hu Jinlin, Shui Bei)

The defendants Hu Shiming, Hu Jinlin and Shui Bei were charged of crime of organizing sneak across the border for trading three Cambodian women to China. One of the defendants, Shui Bei was introduced and married to defendant Hu Jinlin after she entered China under tourist visa. Shui Bei’s families got to know her good living condition and wished to married someone in China. Therefore, Hu Shiming and Hu Jinlin paid for the visa fee of three sisters of Shui Bei, got them in through Guangzhou custom, and advertised them for marriage. Soon after that, Hu Shiming and Hu Jinlin introduced the three to local persons at the will of both sides and took approximately RMB 240,000 in return. Shui Bei was the interpreter during the transaction. The trial court finds that according to Article 318 Section 1 of the Criminal Law of PRC, the defendants organized several foreign women to do things inconsistent with the approved visa, making up the reason to apply for visa, for the purpose of profit-making, which constituted the crime of organizing sneaking across the border. Hu Shiming appealed and alleged that according to Article 6 Section 4 of Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate on Certain Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Handling of the Criminal Cases of Obstructing Border (Frontier) Control, crossing the border with certificates taken by faking reasons for crossing the border, hiding identity, illegally using others’ ID cards etc, shall be regarded as the act of sneaking across the border. All three requirements need to be satisfied, instead of selectively satisfied. The Supreme Court finds that according to the rationale of law interpretation, the three requirements are selective. Therefore the decision is affirmed.

人口拐卖

被告胡石明、胡锦林、水贝因组织将三名柬埔寨妇女偷越国境而被控拐卖妇女罪。被告之一水贝在持旅游签证入境中国后经人介绍与被告胡锦林结婚。之后，水贝家人及亲友了解到水贝在中国的生活要比柬埔寨好。水贝的表姐等三个亲友，愿意到中国来嫁人。由水贝的父母在柬埔寨办理她们的护照、签证及购买入境机票等，胡石明、胡锦林支付费用并将几人带入广州海关。之后胡石明、胡锦林将几人经双方同意介绍给中国男子，并收取共约二十四万人民币。其中，水贝担任翻译。基层人民法院认为，根据中华人民共和国刑法第三百一十八条第一款，被告以介绍境外妇女嫁给中国男人而牟利为目的，多次组织人数众多的外籍妇女以虚假的出入境事由骗取出入境证件，偷越中华人民共和国国（边）境，其行为均已构成组织他人偷越国（边）境罪。胡石明上诉称，根据根据最高人民法院、最高人民检察院《关于办理妨害国（边）境管理刑事案件应用法律若干问题的解释》第六条第（四）项规定，“使用以虚假的出入境事由、隐瞒真实身份、冒用他人身份证件等方式骗取的出入境证件出入国（边）境的”应当认定为刑法第六章第三节规定的偷越国（边）境行为，一审将必须同时具备的三个行为理解为选择性的三个行为，错误理解司法解释。高级人民法院认为，这三个行为应为选择性的。因此维持原判。
