Introduce the specific content of the Dover tragedy.

The investigation into the deaths of 58 China stowaways in Dover, England, seems to have been assisted by the China authorities. The police in Britain, the Netherlands and China have been trying to find out the identity of the deceased for two days and investigate the snakehead organization that organized illegal immigrants to Britain and caused this tragedy.

Answering a reporter's question on this issue at a regular press conference on the 20th, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhu Bangzao said that the China government was shocked by this incident, and that the China authorities were willing to cooperate with the governments of relevant countries to severely crack down on transnational illegal immigrants trafficking. However, Zhu Bangzao said on the same day that the British side had not officially confirmed the identity of the deceased to the Chinese side. Zhu Bangzao also confirmed that the Chinese Embassy in Britain is keeping in touch with the British side, closely tracking and understanding the situation.

Agence France-Presse quoted British police as saying on the 20th that the bodies of 58 illegal immigrants have been sent to British hospitals for autopsy, and the photos of each body, the fingerprints of the deceased and ADN will be sent to Beijing for identification in the near future.

Out of caution, the British side has not officially confirmed the nationality and identity of the 58 deceased, but the British police have basically confirmed that these illegal immigrants came from China. A police spokesman said that the police believed that 58 dead and two survivors were illegal immigrants from Chinese mainland, and preliminary investigation confirmed that these people came from Fujian Province in southern China.

According to British media reports, some China families who have settled in Britain have hired immigration lawyers to help investigate this incident. They are worried that there are relatives among the dead. It is reported that the China government took the initiative to cooperate with the British authorities to investigate this incident, in order to find out how such a huge smuggling and collective death happened.

At present, many media have reported that the Dutch police arrested a suspect suspected of this case in Rotterdam. Aryan van der Spert, 24, is the owner of the "car of death" carrying 60 illegal immigrants, but the Dutch procuratorate has not confirmed or denied this news.

After preliminary investigation and autopsy, the British side has confirmed that 58 dead people died of suffocation in a completely closed truck. Gorgin, the police chief of Kent, England, announced on the 20th: "The preliminary investigation results confirmed that these victims died of suffocation." According to him, from the scene, the deceased experienced a very painful death process. The preliminary testimony of two survivors also confirmed this discovery. Police officer Mai Gorgin speculated that the relatives of the deceased may be in Chinese mainland or England. To this end, the police have called on relatives or acquaintances who know the deceased to contact the police as soon as possible.

According to a report from London in Le Monde on the 20th, after an emergency debate on the Dover tragedy, the British House of Commons is considering granting amnesty to some illegal immigrants from China who have settled in Britain, so as to encourage insiders to testify in court and cooperate with the police in solving the case. British Home Secretary Straw wrote a military order in Parliament to crack down on criminal organizations that trafficked illegal immigrants, which led to the tragedy in Dover. He has handed over the investigation of the case to the Kent Police Department.

It is reported that Britain sent 60 investigators to investigate the case. The police tried the frozen truck driver who transported illegal immigrants for manslaughter.

According to Kent Police Chief Mai Gorgin, this case has been classified as homicide, which is a serious criminal case. A spokesman for the Home Office of the United Kingdom also said that it was an organized case of trafficking in illegal immigrants when the company to which the vehicle belongs was established three or four days before the departure and the driver paid cash during the transition.
