A fire broke out in the back kitchen of a restaurant. The owner abandoned his customers and ran away and was detained. Isn’t running away to protect himself? Why was he detained?

Because according to Article 68 of the Fire Protection Law, if a fire breaks out in a densely populated place, the staff of the place should fulfill their obligation to guide the people present to evacuate. Otherwise, they will be detained for not less than 5 days but not more than 10 days. In Yinchuan, Ningxia, after a restaurant caught fire, the restaurant owner and the chef left the customers behind and fled the fire. Eventually, three customers in the restaurant were trapped in the fire. In the end, both men were placed under administrative detention. Moreover, we can see that the boss and the chef just left the customers and ran away, and because of their reasons, three customers were trapped in the fire scene. This is no longer self-protection. According to the Fire Law, the boss and the chef failed to fulfill their corresponding obligations in their restaurant. The fire was caused by the chef's own mistakes. How could it end without incident when someone else's rights were harmed? , if this incident caused the three trapped unrelated people to be injured or lost their lives, how would this case progress? Some people may say that this is too harsh. In the face of disaster, everyone is for themselves. This is human nature. No matter who they are, they will panic as long as they find that a fire disaster is inevitable. If you find that the fire cannot be controlled, you will quickly flee the scene. This is also human instinct. How can the chef and the boss be detained? But because of their instinct, they just ran away and left all the remaining diners behind. If someone was injured or killed, wouldn't it be too late to arrest the boss and the chef? Since ancient times, China has always advocated prevention before it happens. When a person has a tendency to commit a crime, he should stop it immediately. Only in this way can the crime be avoided, bad consequences will not happen, and innocent people will not lose their lives. I only felt regretful after the incident. Stop bad things and bad ideas when they sprout and prevent them from developing. This is the so-called prevention. Moreover, this time the boss was rejected for 5 days and the chef was rejected for 10 days. This is just to educate them so that they can do better in the future. Be more prepared when facing emergencies in life and take responsibility for the lives of their diners.
