A Chain of crime behind mystery death of a Chinese actor/singer Yu Menglong ( Alan Yu )

[firefly1002]

I am starting this thread to discuss the mysterious and highly controversial death of Chinese actor and singer Yu Menglong (also known as Alan Yu), which occurred in September 2025. While the official police report ruled the death an "accidental fall after drinking" and stated there was "no criminal suspicion," there are significant questions being raised by his family and the public that remain unanswered.

Key Inconsistencies & Concerns:

• Rapid Case Closure: Authorities reportedly ruled out criminal suspicion just 13 hours after the incident, a timeframe many argue is insufficient for a full forensic investigation.
• Official Reports vs. Family Allegations: While official media echoes the accidental fall narrative, there are reports that family members and supporters have alleged the death was not accidental.
• Alleged Evidence of Distress: Multiple video and audio recordings that surfaced online—before being swiftly removed by censors—allegedly capture a man crying for help and stating he was being threatened.
• Digital Erasure: Since his death, there has been a massive crackdown on social media; over 100,000 posts have been deleted, and his fan communities have been shut down.

Wider Investigation Theories:There is a growing international movement, including a global petition with over 700,000 signatures, calling for a transparent and independent investigation. Some international observers have raised concerns about whether his death is linked to a larger network involving high-level financial crimes or other unethical practices.

Specifically, questions have been raised regarding:

• The involvement of individuals allegedly present at the scene who have not been publicly cleared by a detailed report.
• The systematic silencing of the victim’s family and legal representatives.

I am hoping to connect with other sleuths who have been following the documentation surrounding this case to help piece together the timeline and verify the sources of these allegations. Also choose not to stay silent, sign the petition for this gentle, talented and charitable man.

Much of the information about this case is in Chinese, and the censorship regarding this case is also off the rails. I will translate and offer as much info as I can - Yu deserves justice.

The official narrative per police is that he drunkenly jumped from the 5th floor of his apartment complex. I found that odd immediately because you could potentially survive from that height (I had a friend jump 6 stories and broke her back but she lived and is doing better now).

An insider [reported] that Yu Menglong was having a meal with 5 – 6 good friends at a friend’s house on September 9...
