新西兰第一命案
新西兰第一命案是指中国公民肖真因为在新西兰杀人而在中华人民共和国上海市受审的案件,新西兰第一命案也是首起发生在新西兰境内但在新西兰以外审判的命案[1][2][3]。
案发
2010年1月31日凌晨,中国公民肖真坐上奥克兰芒特伊甸的一辆出租车,司机是来自孟买的黑瑞·莫黑尼(Hiren Mohini) [4][5][6]。肖真不肯付15.2新西兰元车费,因而与莫黑尼发生争执,随后肖真掏出刀将莫黑尼杀死。[7]
肖真生于1985年,来自中国上海市,2007年5月起在新西兰奥克兰留学[8]。案发时是奥克兰天空之城的一名厨房工人。 [9][10]
2月4日,肖真搬到一个朋友家居住,第二天以在中国的爷爷病重为由买了单程机票回中国探望。新西兰警方同时与国际刑警组织联系[7]。
审判
2010年6月10日,肖真在上海的家中被逮捕。 [2][11][12]由于中国与新西兰不存在引渡条约,因此肖真在中国接受法庭审判[13]。 新西兰警察已请求中方不要对犯人使用死刑 [14]。
2011年8月2日,上海市第二中级人民法院[15]开庭审理此案[16] ,新西兰警察提供了肖真的杀人证据,肖真对杀人一事供认不讳。[11]肖真表示,自己在上车后被莫黑尼辱骂,于是他要求莫黑尼停车,并且拒绝支付车费。结果两人出现争执,自己于是掏出刀具捅了司机一刀。[2][17] 8月17日,上海市第二中级人民法院判处肖真15年有期徒刑。 [18][19][20]
评论
奥克兰大学副教授比尔·霍奇(Bill Hodge)认为此案标志著“新西兰的司法管辖权受到羞辱”。 [21]

"We have reviewed the case and found that the defendant showed regret during the trial and the lawyer pleaded for a lighter sentence. The court approved that, and the final ruling is that he should serve 15 years, and be deprived of political rights for a further four," said Judge Jiang Zhengyu. Li Liping, Xiao's aunt, said after the verdict that she felt Xiao Zhen deserved the sentence. "Our family failed to bring him up properly," she said, tearfully. "We do not think we will appeal and we think 15 years is correct. We now feel we can look the victim's family in the face".
