comprehensive“Skynet Operation No. 1”“Jimu News”The tomb robbery incident occurred on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival in 2022. The leader of the tomb robbery group, Chen Nan, recruited 5 members and carried tools to the mountains near Aohan Banner to rob ancient tombs. However, due to sudden heavy rain, the work was interrupted after only 2 days.

One month later, Chen Nan reconvened more members to participate in the tomb robbery. This time they drove two cars respectively, and carried out a clear division of labor. For example, some people were responsible for the surrounding transportation and food delivery, some were digging at the entrance of the cave, and the other three took turns digging at the bottom of the cave. In addition, they will stop work during the day and wait until night to enter the ancient tombs to rob.

However, during the digging process, rainwater flowed into the cave, hindering the progress of the tomb robbery. So they bought gasoline pumping equipment to try to drain the stagnant water. However, this turned out to be a fatal mistake, because the gasoline pumping equipment produced a large amount of carbon monoxide gas in the process, which accumulated in the hole and could not be discharged.As a result, three members of the group unfortunately died of poisoning, and the tomb robbery was exposed. Qian Nan and other members of the group also voluntarily surrendered to the public security organs

The court ruled that Qian Nan and other six people, together with others, privately excavated ancient tombs with historical and scientific value, and were suspected of the crime of robbing ancient tombs, and made a judgment in accordance with Article 328 of the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China and relevant laws and regulations. Although the 6 people were dissatisfied with the judgment of the first instance and appealed, the appeal was rejected by the second instance and the original judgment was upheld.

The stolen ancient tomb in this tomb robbery case belongs to the tomb remains of the Liao and Jin Dynasties and is considered to have important historical value. As a place full of historical and cultural heritage, Aohan Banner has more than 4,000 ancient cultural sites and tombs, so it is also known as “Humanistic Aohan”. The tomb site stolen this time is a newly discovered cultural relic site, which is of great significance to the study of the history and funeral culture of the Liao and Jin Dynasties.
