最受注目的莫過於因參與起草《零八憲章》而被重判11年的北京作家劉曉波博士，中國政府特別選擇在聖誕節宣判，明顯挑釁國際社會。劉曉波自2008年12月被帶走之後，不斷有外國政府及人權組織呼籲中國政府釋放劉曉波，但中國政府完全置之不理，足見現今中國政府對經濟發展沾沾自喜，甚至認為全世界也得參考「北京模式」。《零八憲章》提出改革的主張，是以中國憲法、《世界人權宣言》及中國已於1998年簽署但仍未獲人大批准的《公民權利和政治權利國際公約》作為依據，反映內地知識分子對普世人權價值的渴求，但正正是因為《零八憲章》點出了中國社會現今面對的根本制度性問題，北京心虛而重判劉曉波，希望殺雞儆猴，這標誌著中國現在的人權狀况是最黑暗的時期，言論自由空間已萎縮到不能再談改革了。 閱讀全文 more
Beijing Human Rights Lawyer Gao Zhisheng Disappeared for One Year,
Demand Chinese Government Disclose Gao Zhisheng’s Whereabouts
Find Gao Zhisheng!
4 February 2010
Beijing human rights lawyer Gao Zhisheng was taken from his home in Shaanbei (northern Shaanxi Province) on 4 February 2009. He has now been disappeared for one year. We call on everyone to continue demanding that the Chinese government disclose Gao Zhisheng’s whereabouts.
A few days after Gao Zhisheng was disappeared, an article entitled “Dark Night, Black Hood, Gangster-Kidnap” was published on the Internet, disclosing details about how he was tortured on 21 September 2007. The shocking content exemplified the Chinese government’s sanguinary persecution of human rights lawyers.
What Gao Zhisheng did was released three letters in 2005 demanding that the Chinese government stop persecuting Falun Gong members and initiated a rights defense hunger strike campaign demanding a halt of the suppression of human rights activists. However, he was then subjected to a series of persecutions. After a secret trial in December 2006, he was sentenced to three years’ imprisonment, suspended for five years, on the charge of “inciting subversion of state power.”
On 14 January this year, there were reports that when Gao Zhisheng’s elder brother Gao Zhiyi went to the Beijing Public Security Bureau to ask about Gao Zhisheng’s whereabouts, the public security officials told him that Gao Zhisheng went missing after he had lost his way on 25 September 2009. Gao Zhisheng was under 24-hour surveillance. How could he lose his way and disappear? When asked about Gao Zhisheng’s whereabouts by foreign journalists at a regular press conference on 21 January 2010, Foreign Ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu said, “The relevant judicial authorities have decided this case, and we should say this person, according to Chinese law, is where he should be.” A Chinese citizen disappeared under tight official surveillance. We are extremely worried about Gao Zhisheng’s safety.
We call on everyone who is concerned about Gao Zhisheng’s fate to continue demanding that the Chinese government disclose Gao Zhisheng’s whereabouts!

先說福州司法局的處罰理據是︰林洪楠於2002年代理福清市市紀委爆炸案，閱卷時私自把“秘密”材料覆印帶走並向家屬及境外網站披露有關資料。原來，這份所謂“秘密”材料，是指福清市委政法委《關於協調吳建喜涉嫌重大責任事故等巨案的會議紀要》。政法委的內部紀要文件當然是秘密資料，但是該紀要已在2002年爆炸案審判時送上法庭公開作為證據審理。而且當時不祇林洪楠律師唯一接觸到這份資料的人。 閱讀全文 more
