Case Background and Legal Disputes

Artist Wang Dalu is suspected of spending millions to find a group of Shanbing to forge medical certificates to evade military service. The prosecutors and police expanded their investigation and found that many other artists were involved. This morning (14th), they held search warrants and divided into multiple groups to bring the designated targets back for investigation. The artists involved include singer Chen Lingjiu, Xiaoxia Chen Datian, artist Da Gen, Lollipop William and boy group Super 7 member Li Quan, but their agency responded that they are still investigating the matter and seem to be completely unaware.

A criminal lawyer at Fidelity Law Firm stated that using fake medical records to evade military service could constitute a criminal offense of forgery and obstruction of military service, which together carry a maximum penalty of up to five years imprisonment. Although these suspects are currently out on bail, if the individual is under 36 years old and the Military Service Bureau determines that they have indeed deserted, they can be conscripted into the military at any time.

Opinion of Fidelity Law Firm

Lawyers at Fidelity Law Firm advise that in similar cases, one should not only look at the news headlines, but also return to the evidence, legal requirements, procedural stages, and the client's actual objectives. If the case has entered the court, district prosecutor's office, investigation bureau, or negotiation process, the earlier the information is gathered, the more room for maneuver it will retain.

What should be confirmed first when encountering similar cases?

• First, organize the event timeline, notices, contracts, chat logs, photos, videos, and payment information.
• Confirm the current stage of the process: it may be just a consultation, you may have been interviewed, you may have received a summons, you may have entered into court proceedings, or you may need to file a lawsuit to seek compensation.
• Assess whether there are immediate risks such as statute of limitations, evidence preservation, detention, imprisonment, settlement negotiations, or media exposure.
