"在距奥运会召开不到60天之际,中国当局接连不断地打压维权活跃人士,完全是在自毁形象,与当局所宣称的建立'和谐社会'的目标背道而驰",中国人权执行主任谭竞嫦表示:"在四川抗震救灾中,黄琦多次前往灾区发送救援物资,了解情况,帮助灾区民众,正是表现出一个关心社会的人所应具有的公民意识;在当前抗震救灾难的紧要关头,中国当局应当欢迎并且动员一切社会力量,同心协力,解决灾区民众的各种迫切需求。"
国内消息来源表示,6月10日晚,黄琦以及天网人权事务中心义工蒲飞、前乐山师范学院教师左小环被几名不明身份的人强行塞入一辆汽车失踪后,中国天网人权事务中心的法律顾问徐律师,于6月12日下午到成都晋阳派出所报警。警方表示,黄琦己经被拘捕,有关手续将会发给黄琦家人,至于拘捕的理由,警方拒绝回答。
黄琦的母亲浦文清,今年74岁,是一名退休心血管医生。她表示:几天来,家人没有接到警方的任何通知。她希望当局明白,黄琦是在为四川灾民做善事,盼望儿子早日获得自由与家人团聚。
消息来源表示,目前警方正在陆续传唤与黄琦接触过的朋友及寻求帮助的上访民众。6月11日下午,警方传唤了中国泛蓝联盟成员黄晓敏,追问天网网站公布有关他的消息一事。还有一位长年上访人士李婷惠也被传唤,原因是天网网站曾多次报道过她的上访消息。
黄琦是目前国内十分活跃的维权人士,于1998年10月成立了成都天网寻人咨询服务事务所,并于1999年6月4日开启了"天网寻人"网站(6-4TIANWANG.COM)。该网站曾因帮助寻找到许多失散的亲人而获得媒体的广泛报道,2000年6月3日,黄琦被当局逮捕。2003年5月9日,成都市中级人民法院以"煽动颠覆国家政权罪"判处黄琦有期徒刑5年。2005年,黄琦出狱后,开办"六四天网"网站,继续关注大陆的维权活动,发布各种维权信息,为弱势群体提供各种帮助。2006年12月31日,"六四天网"改名为"中国天网人权事务中心"。
中国人权督促成都当局立即无条件释放黄琦,停止非法骚扰维权人士,用实际行动向国际社会展现中国政府建设一个法制和和谐社会的郑重承诺。
Human Rights in China Condemns the Detention of Huang Qi by Police in Chengdu
June 14, 2008
Human Rights in China (HRIC) has received information that police in Chengdu confirm the detention of Huang Qi, a leading Internet human rights activist, who was reported taken away in a car by unidentified individuals on June 10, 2008. With less than 60 days left before the opening of the Olympic Games, the Chinese authorities' ongoing crackdown on rights defenders and activists, further undermines their image and the official goal of building a harmonious society.
— Sharon Hom,
Executive Director of HRIC
Sources told HRIC that, on June 12, the legal counsel of Huang's Internet company went to the police to check Huang's status and learned that Huang was detained and that the legal procedure notice would be sent to his family soon. The police refused to disclose the grounds for his detention. At the same time, the police reportedly summoned Huang Qi's friends, as well as petitioners who had sought help from Huang Qi's Tianwang Human Rights Center (http://www.64tianwang.com).
"With less than 60 days left before the opening of the Olympic Games, the Chinese authorities' ongoing crackdown on rights defenders and activists, further undermines their image and the official goal of building a harmonious society," said Sharon Hom, Executive Director of Human Rights in China. "In the midst of a national disaster, Huang Qi acted as a concerned citizen. He sought to understand the situation and traveled to the disaster areas on numerous occasions to provide aid to the disaster victims. In this critical time following the tragic Sichuan earthquake, the authorities should be welcoming the mobilization of the whole society to act together to address the urgent needs of the victims."
Sources inside China said that on the evening of June 10, Huang Qi, Pu Fei, a volunteer for Tianwang, and Zuo Xiaohuan, a former teacher at Leshan Teachers College were missing after they were forced into a car by unidentified individuals. In the afternoon of June 12, Lawyer Xu, Tianwang's legal counsel, went to the Jinyang Police Station of Chengdu to file a missing persons report. The police reportedly told Xu that Huang Qi has been detained, and that the related legal procedure notice would be sent to his family. However, the police refused to disclose the grounds for Huang's detention.
Huang Qi's 74-year old mother, Pu Wenqing, a retired cardiovascular doctor, said that the family had not received any notice from the police over the past few days. Huang's mother also expressed concern that the authorities will understand that Huang Qi has only acted for the good of victims in Sichuan Province, and allow her son to be reunited with his family soon.
Sources said that the police are questioning friends who had contact with Huang and petitioners who Huang had helped. On the afternoon of June 11, the police questioned Huang Xiaomin, a member of the Chinese Pan-Blue Alliance, about a related Tianwang news report. Another long-time petitioner, Li Tinghui was also summoned because Tianwang had repeatedly reported news of her grievances.
Huang Qi is an active rights defender in China. he established an Internet service company in October 1998 to help search for missing people, and launched a website called Tianwang Xunren (6-4tianwang.com) on June 4, 1999. Huang Qi's work and this website were widely reported by media for their work on helping find many missing people to unite family members. Huang Qi was arrested on June 3, 2000, and sentenced to five years imprisonment on May 9, 2003 by the Chengdu Intermediate People's Court for the crime of inciting subversion of state power. After he was released from prison in 2005, Huang Qi launched a website called June Fourth Tianwang to continue domestic rights activities, publish rights protection information, and provide assistance to vulnerable groups. On December 31, 2006, the website June Fourth Tianwang was renamed the Tianwang Human Rights Center (http://www.64tianwang.com).
Human Rights in China urges the Chengdu authorities to immediately release Huang Qi without conditions and cease their unlawful harassment of rights defenders, and demonstrate to the international community by their actions a serious commitment to build a rule of law and a harmonious society.
