The longest murder case in Zhejiang was solved. Why did the police open the coffin for autopsy? Because the police want to identify the real murderer by opening the coffin and autopsy, the purpose of opening the coffin and autopsy is to extract the DNA of the murderer to identify the real identity of the body.

It took 4 1 year to solve the case, which shows how cunning the murderer is. This is also the longest murder case uncovered by Zhejiang public security organs so far. This case can be traced back to Ming 'ao Township 1979 in Yongjia Mountain Area, Wenzhou, where villagers made a living by planting chestnuts. One day, Shao in the village and Shao Xiaomou in the same village had a fierce quarrel over a chestnut tree. Although village cadres have intervened many times, both sides refused to give in, and the contradiction between them became more and more serious. On March 28th, Shao couldn't hold back his anger and prepared to cut down Shao Xiaomou's chestnut tree. Shao Xiaomou arrived immediately after hearing the news. Because the words were too excited, the two began to scuffle. During the scuffle, Shao stabbed Shao with a sharp knife for cutting trees. Due to serious injuries, Shao died because of ineffective rescue. Shao fled immediately after killing. Due to the limited investigation conditions of 1979 police station, Zhejiang police failed to arrest many times.

In recent years, Zhejiang police have attached great importance to the detection of accumulated murders, but it has been 4 1 year since the incident of Chestnut Tree, and all the witnesses at that time have passed away. Moreover, the household registration information of 1979 at that time was not as perfect as it is now. After so many years, the killer's appearance has changed. At that time, Shao's wife had remarried, and Shao fled and changed her name. Therefore, Zhejiang police are at a loss and don't know where to start. Zhejiang police can only look for clues about the murderer from a large number of interviews.

During the visit, the police found that Shao often showed off to the villagers in the same village before fleeing. He has a great big brother named Pan, so the police began to check Pan's network. When investigating Pan, the police found a major breakthrough. Pan's fellow villagers happened to find that Pan secretly dragged a body into the village at night and buried it 10 years ago. After hearing the news, the Zhejiang task force immediately sent people to look for this buried place. Under the questioning of the police, Pan's son truthfully explained the burial place of the murderer. The task force rushed to the burial site overnight, extracted the DNA of the body for inspection, and finally confirmed that the body was the murderer of that year.
