Is it illegal for Jiangsu men to go home as mercenaries abroad and be sentenced?

Tan of Jiangsu was sentenced for the crime of illegal possession of guns and the crime of crossing the border, not for being employed abroad. Whether it is illegal for China citizens to be mercenaries abroad depends on the situation and cannot be generalized.

First of all, the case: that guy is cool, and U-bar was caught with a gun! A young man named Tan from Jiangsu went to U Bar to play, and the waiter accidentally bumped into something hard around his waist. Then the young man took out a pistol from his waist and showed it to the waiter: real guy, is it cool? Cool! The waiter quickly told the supervisor about it. The supervisor came up to the young man and said, "Brother, it is not appropriate for you to take this thing to a public place. Give it to me for safekeeping and return it to you when you leave. " Tell me about the guy's discretion, hand over the gun, and the supervisor quietly called the police! I like this safety-conscious supervisor first. It is wise to eliminate potential safety hazards before the police arrive. If that young man resists arrest with a gun, the consequences will be unimaginable! I wonder if the police gave this supervisor a reward? )

When the police arrived, they easily took the young man down and found two magazines and 18 bullets from him. Honey, that's terrible! After the trial, Tan confessed that in recent years, he crossed the China-Myanmar border many times and was punished by the border police many times, but he never changed his original intention. He also worked as an armed mercenary in Myanmar for a period of time, and secretly brought back an imitation Bei Leita pistol and 18 bullets to China.

Liyang city court first sentenced the defendant to talk about a crime of illegal possession of guns and sentenced him to one year and six months in prison; He was convicted of illegal border crossing and sentenced to nine months in prison and fined RMB 4,000. Combined punishment for several crimes, he decided to execute two years' imprisonment and fined RMB 4,000. The seized guns and bullets shall be confiscated according to law and executed by the original seizure organ.

2. Is it illegal to be a mercenary abroad? We can only know a little about the story of mercenaries in film and television works, and it feels far away from us. It was not until Shaanxi youth Bai wrote a series of articles on his experience as a mercenary in Iraq that we carefully examined this difficult, exciting and mysterious career. Bai Jiu got back a million dollars in his life, and now his successful entrepreneurial experience really envies and yearns for some young people. Therefore, some young people want to know whether it is illegal for China people to be mercenaries abroad.

1. What occupations do mercenaries include?

The so-called mercenaries can be divided into narrow sense and broad sense. In a narrow sense, such as French mercenaries, they were born for war and survived in the face of organized armed forces. People in China seldom do this kind of work. To be a mercenary in a foreign country, you must be proficient in at least one foreign language. If you can't even speak English, how can you communicate with others? If you can master a foreign language, it is not difficult to find a stable job, so why lick your blood!

Mercenaries in a broad sense include "soldiers" and "security guards" with guns. There are many international security companies that provide security services for enterprises or gangs. The difference between them and domestic security companies is that international security companies can undertake cross-border business and have certain security equipment, such as guns, tanks and planes. Our domestic enterprises do business abroad, and sometimes they will recruit security personnel from China, or they can directly hire international security companies. Most people in China are engaged in mercenary occupation. Shaanxi young man Bai is a "security guard" with a gun.

2. Can China people go abroad as mercenaries?

There is no explicit prohibition or permission in our country, which needs us to understand according to the spirit of the law. Under normal circumstances, as long as it does not harm national interests, does not participate in terrorist activities, and does not violate our laws, it will not be punished. First of all, China people are not allowed to fight mercenaries. Being employed in any country is equivalent to being loyal to any country. If you are employed by a hostile country in our country, it also constitutes treason. One or two China people go to help others fight, which is harmless and can't create international influence. If we had organized a battalion of China people to go to war, the diplomatic note would have arrived long ago.

Secondly, security personnel generally do not violate the laws of the host country by taking actions to protect the interests of employers in security work. If it violates the laws and regulations of the host country and hurts innocent people, there is no need to use domestic laws to say things, and foreign governments will not let it go. If it does not violate foreign laws and regulations, it will generally not violate domestic laws and regulations. Just like "self-defense" stipulated by domestic laws, in order to prevent casualties caused by illegal invasion, it will not bear the responsibilities stipulated by law. Finally, let's learn about criminal law.

Article 7 Criminal Law This Law shall apply to China citizens who commit crimes stipulated in this Law outside the territory of People's Republic of China (PRC). However, if the maximum penalty prescribed in this law is fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, it may not be investigated.

This criminal law stipulates the principle of personal jurisdiction. China people in foreign countries are bound not only by the laws of the host country, but also by the domestic laws. Doesn't mean anyone with a broken AK can kill people everywhere. If you break the law abroad and flee back to China, domestic laws can tell him something even if you don't extradite him.

Conclusion: We can only treat the story of mercenaries as a story, and don't take it seriously. Now that our country is rich and strong, there is no need to work hard for a few dollars. When the motherland needs us, it is not too late to kill the enemy bravely!
