52 reports of "expired food" made "informers" planted

Xiaotangshan

　　Recently, a reporter from Beiqing Community News learned from the Xiaotangshan Market Supervision and Administration Office (hereinafter referred to as the Market Supervision and Administration Office) that the "citizen hotline" frequently received telephone reports saying that expired food was purchased in the Xiaotangshan Township area.

However, when the staff of the Market Supervision Office arrived at the scene, they did not find any expired food sold. After reporting the corresponding results to the whistleblower, they not only had no doubts, but expressed satisfaction with the results.

　　It is understood that since June this year, 52 similar cases have occurred in the Xiaotangshan area. This has puzzled the staff of the market supervision office. Why do so many "expired food" suddenly appear in the jurisdiction?

Why are the reporters the same?

Do they still express satisfaction if the "expired food" of the business has not been found?

　　Small businesses were caught "short" and spent money to make things easier

　　It turned out that these "help" calls came from a group of "professional claimants," who disclosed the information to the merchants in advance before the arrival of the staff of the market supervision office, so that the merchants could collect the expired food.

After the staff of the market supervision office leave, these "professional claimants" will ask the merchants for "economic compensation" of several thousand yuan. If the merchants do not give them, they will use their own evidence to intimidate each other.

　　According to the staff of the Market Supervision Institute, these "professional claimants" would go to relatively remote merchants such as rural canteens to check whether there are expired products in the store before calling the hotline to report, and then collect evidence by shooting videos on their phones.

In addition, there are also extortions in which the "claimant" brought expired food into the store.

　　"We went to the store to investigate through the work order and did not find that the merchant was selling expired food." The staff of the Market Supervision Office told reporters, "Before leaving, we will publicize the law and inform the merchants that the sale of expired products will be fined at least 50,000 yuan. , Ask them to check the goods sold on the shelves regularly.” And these “professional claimants” caught the merchant’s fear of large fines and convinced them to lose money to make up for the “short-term”.

　　However, some merchants are keenly aware that the situation is not right and will find the market supervision office for consultation in time.

Some businesses also believe that this is a "collusion" between the "professional claimant" and the staff of the market supervision institute.

On July 24, the Market Supervision Agency took the initiative to report the case and reminded the merchants in the jurisdiction to pay attention to such problems. Once discovered, keep the documents and report the case in time.

　　52 well-received work orders kept strange, attracting attention

　　"The work of'Do it as soon as you receive a complaint' has statistics on the satisfaction rate. We did not find any behavior of selling expired food in the inspection of merchants, so we gave feedback to the whistleblower, but the whistleblower was satisfied with the results." The staff told reporters that since June this year, there have been 52 similar work orders, and all of them have been satisfactorily praised.

The illogical reporting behavior and the rapid increase of similar cases in a short period of time alerted the staff of the Market Supervision Institute and quickly adopted three measures: intensify the investigation and handling of food cases, and achieve “do it before litigation”; Propaganda of safety laws and regulations, improve operators’ awareness of law-abiding, emphasizing that only law-abiding operations are the best protection for themselves; for merchants whose expired foods were falsely accused by “claimants”, patiently ease their emotions and guide them to collect evidence and report directly to the public security organs .

At the same time, the Xiaotangshan police station followed up to obtain evidence, and arrested after determining the illegal facts.

　　Police arrested "breaking news" gang

　　On the afternoon of November 12, the staff of the Market Supervision Office interviewed Liang who had repeatedly reported the sale of "expired food".

The police from Xiaotangshan police station who had entered the scene a long time ago arrested him in due course, and his accomplices Wei and Yang were also arrested by police officers who were outside.

At the same time, a large amount of self-prepared "expired food" in his car was seized.

In addition, the market supervision office and the police station worked together to successfully detain three other “professional claimants” who had been extorted in the name of buying fake liquor.

　　"The legal awareness of the merchants in the rural commissary is weak and it is easy to be targeted by criminals." The staff of the Market Supervision Office told reporters, "Next, we will increase the law popularization so that all businesses in the jurisdiction can know the law and understand the law better. Law and abiding by the law." Wen / Beiqing Community Newspaper Li Zhi
