根据Ryan Bourke的报道:
一名澳大利亚国立大学(ANU)的学生因在2019年在校内住宿地方袭击女友而被判处三个月零13天的缓刑监禁和2000美元的罚款。
检方表示,当时21岁的学生Denghu Ji在女友发现他在中国还有一个女友后,对她进行了掐脖子的行为。
堪培拉地方法院听到,事件发生在受害人发现Ji有第二个恋情后,她试图告知另一名女友的情况。被告意识到发生了什么后,据称他进入了女友的房间,删除了她手机上的信息,并拨打了他在中国的另一名女友的电话,试图挽救两人的关系。
检方称,在这通电话中,Ji据称同时对受害人进行了两分钟的掐脖子行为,受害人告诉法庭,她可以听到他的另一位伴侣通过电话告诉他停下来。
虽然被告于周四被判刑,但据信这起事件发生在2019年10月的ANU学生宿舍中。
在她的影响陈述中,受害人表示在袭击期间她以为自己“接近死亡”。她还表达了对Ji持续的恐惧,称“只有在公共场所捂住脸时我才感到安全”,“我害怕他遇见我并认出我”。
在辩护中,Ji的辩护团队称他“对女性感到社交焦虑,在感情关系方面不成熟,并且在犯罪时仍在适应没有父母支持的生活”。
根据一份心理报告,Ji称这些指控是虚假的,并没有像描述的那样严重。

Ji是一名来自中国的国际学生,最初在因疫情多次延迟的审判中表示不认罪。他声称自己出于害怕该女子可能会伤害自己或自杀而采取了自卫行动。
在数年坚称无罪后,Ji在2022年7月的听证会结束时被判犯罪。他在2023年3月对首都地区最高法院的上诉被驳回,并于周四被判处三个月零13天的刑期,但刑期被缓刑。
Ji目前持有过渡签证,并已在拘留中度过了17天,并将在ACT Corrective Services的监管下监视12个月。
附加刑期外,Ji还被处以2000美元的罚款。

CW: Domestic Violence
An ANU student has received a suspended sentence of three months and 13 days in jail and a $2000 fine for assaulting his girlfriend at his residential accommodation in 2019.
According to prosecutors, a then 21-year-old student Denghu Ji choked the victim after she discovered he had a second girlfriend in China.
The Canberra Magistrates Court heard that the incident occurred after the victim discovered Ji’s second relationship, and tried to alert the other girlfriend of the situation. When the accused realized what was happening, he allegedly entered his girlfriend’s room, deleted the messages off her phone, and called his other girlfriend in China in an attempt to salvage the relationship.
It was during this phone call that prosecutors alleged Ji simultaneously choked the victim for two minutes, with the victim telling the court that she could hear his other partner telling him to stop through the phone.
While the accused was only sentenced on Thursday, the incident is believed to have taken place at an ANU student accommodation in October 2019.
In her impact statement, the victim said she thought she was “close to death” during the attack. She also expressed her ongoing fear of Ji, stating, “I only feel safe when I cover my face in a public place,” and “I’m afraid if he meets me and recognises me.”
In his defence, Ji’s legal team argued that he “suffered social anxiety around women, was immature in the context of relationships and was still adjusting to life without parental support at the time of the offence.”
According to a psychological report, he stated the allegations were false and not as serious as described.
Ji, an international student from China, initially pleaded not guilty in a trial that was delayed multiple times due to the pandemic. He claimed he acted in self-defence out of fear that the woman might harm him or herself.
After maintaining his innocence for several years, Ji was found guilty of the offences at the conclusion of a hearing in July 2022. His appeal to the ACT Supreme Court was dismissed in March 2023, and on Thursday he received a sentence of three months and 13 days. However, the sentence was suspended by the magistrate.
Ji, who is currently on a bridging visa has already spent 17 days in custody and will remain under ACT Corrective Services supervision for a total of 12 months.
In addition to his jail sentence, Ji was also handed a $2,000 fine.
