Chapter 220 - Recovery And Revenge - Part 15
Friday, continued …
Thirty minutes after leaving the hospital, Officer Mu and Alsiter Nang arrived to further consult with the investigators, given the information they had from Hou Yi and Anna.
As they sat down, the senior investigator asked "What did you find out."
"My client being smart …"
"Mr Nang, to not try and be clever with us. We have simply allowed you to shadow the investigation as we want to ensure that there are no questions that everything has not been done properly, particularly from your client's perspective. The prosecutors are indicating them may hand the prosecution of charges against Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin to you, but that does not mean you have control of the investigation."
"Sorry, but you will think that she you hear what Mrs Hou did."
"What is he meaning Officer Mu?"
"Madam Hou, and a friend an Amanda Mei …"
"How is this Amanda Mei."
"Miss Mei, is a lawyer employed by Hou Enterprises and a friend of Madam Hou. Her father is the Vice-CEO of XF International, and she is, as far as I understand dating CEO Yao of XF International. I believe, if her father had his way, Miss Mei would already be married to CEO Yao. I understand from CEO Hou that Miss Mei is highly competent at her job, and is being considered internally for a Senior Supervisor's position that has become vacant at Hou Enterprises."
"Oh, I did not realise." Responded the senior investigator, having thought initially that this other person was someone insignificant.
Officer Mu continued "Madam Hou and Miss Mei, apparently took two separate photographs that were posted on social media. Miss Mei's post was about visiting her friend who had been injured by poice in hospital and Madam Hou's post about having the visit. Both wanted to seek justice. They shared each other's posts, and through Miss Mei's social network, the posts started to get out."
"Madam Lu, over a series of posts responded to it. Taking her posts together, you can see that she indicates that at a minimum she was involved in having the police assault Madam Hou, as well as engaging in slander. Madam Hou, when we were visiting her this morning, provided me with a signed authorisation to talk to people, and a signed Freedom of Information Request."
"I am getting the idea that there is something that you have not told us about Officer Mu?"
"You are right. When I first had contact with CEO and Madam Hou, incidentally on the day that they had gotten their marriage certificate, she had been assaulted at the Key Plaza Hotel, by Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin. Due to Hou Enterprises stake in the Key Plaza Hotel's parent company CEO Hou used this to secure the company's archival footage of the incident, which confirms the assault."
"This footage differs significantly from that apparently copied from the Security Office at the Key Plaza Hotel, which after investigations seems to have been altered. CEO Hou also provided copies of the CCTV from Fengs Jewelers that showed Madam Lu trying to blackmail the staff to obtain the ring set that CEO and Madam Hou had just purchased for their wedding rings at no cost."
"This prompted me to make inquiries in Australia as to events involving Madam Hou and Lu Jinhu who is her ex-partner. The Press release last week from CEO and Madam Hou was referring to Lu Jinhu when speaking about Madam Hou's experiences without naming him."
"The Investigations led me to a police officer in Victoria who was called to a car accident where Madam Hou and Lu Jinhu were the innocent victims. Madam Hou was the only person involved who, it was judged by the police, needed transportation to the hospital. Lu Jinhu hurt her physically and emotionally, and manipulated her into remain on scene while he, who had no injury was taken to hospital."
"He also told me, that there was at least two or three other incidents involving Madam Hou being physically targeted by Lu Jnihu. Madam Hou has just signed a Freedom of Information request, which should be enough to get the police files about the incidents, rather than having to wait for the chief national prosecutor to go through the formal channels with his Australian equivalent. If it is as what I believe, it will be enough for Lu Jinhu, combined with the Key Plaza Hotel and the Theatre incidents …"
"To charge his with sustained domestic abuse of a former partner."
