周鸿祎： 新机可同时运行两个微信

2015年08月25日01:02

原标题：周鸿祎： 新机可同时运行两个微信


　　据透露，即将发布的360奇酷手机内置一项特殊功能：一部手机同时运行两个微信。据悉，这项功能由360公司周鸿祎提出并亲自督办，要求必须在360 OS和奇酷手机中实现。目前该功能截图已经曝光，曝光图中除了标准的微信外，出现一个蓝色的微信图标，但名称已被隐去。

　　目前，在安卓、iOS平台上微信都只允许一部手机登录一个微信，但很多人都有同时使用两个微信的需求，一个微信用于工作，在职场进行日常交流；另一个用于个人生活，属于比较私密的范畴。为实现这个目的，一些人不得不同时携带两部手机，累赘而又费钱。周鸿祎的“一部手机同时运行两个微信”功能，是360 OS内置的一项功能，两个微信可以同时接受发送消息，刷朋友圈，互不干扰。

　　据悉，这项功能由周鸿祎提出，并要求立即实现，最终通过360 OS的“空间隔离”技术实现，将两个微信分别运行在两个独立的隔离空间中。

Chinese Rights Websites Hit by Suspected Hacker Attack, Great Firewall Blockade
2015-08-18 

http://www.rfa.org/english/news/china/rights-websites-hit-by-suspected-hacker-attack-great-firewall-blockade-08182015111603.html

A rights and citizen journalism website based in the southwestern Chinese province of Sichuan said its operations have been paralyzed by a hacker attack on Tuesday, while a second site said its domain name is once more blocked on China's tightly controlled Internet.

Activist Huang Qi, who founded the Tianwang website, said the home page and articles were unaffected by the attack by unknown hackers.

"But we can't get into the interface for contributors to post copy, which means that we have no way to post articles to the website," Huang said.

He said the group had taken to posting articles on social media platforms Google+ and Facebook, which are blocked to the majority of users inside China, and the group's blog.

"We have been unable to post articles since around 10 a.m.," Huang said. "The registration page is also broken. I think it's been attacked."

Tianwang, which started out as a resource for relatives of those killed or injured in the military crackdown on the 1989 pro-democracy movement, soon changed its focus to cover ordinary Chinese who seek to defend their rights in the face of official abuses of power.

It often posts the stories that rarely find expression in China's tightly controlled, state-run media, and that are often deleted from social media sites soon after they appear.

Currently, at least four of its citizen journalists are in detention amid an ever-widening crackdown on freedom of expression and nongovernmental groups in the country, the Paris-based press freedom group Reporters Sans Frontieres (RSF) said in a recent report.

"Tianwang has a lot of articles, many of them about folk heroes like retired military officers and farmers who have lost their land," Huang said.

"Tianwang has a lot of news about farmers standing up for their rights, and also about ordinary citizens who get detained, including details of their trials and issues like torture and mistreatment in prison," he said.

"I think that is the reason it has been attacked."

Huang said the cyberattack was likely the 20th since the beginning of the year.

"It causes a lot of problems for our work," he said.

Rights website shut down

Meanwhile, rights website Watchdog Net for Citizens and Public Opinion was shut down in recent days, founder Li Xinde told RFA.

"Our registration number has been canceled [for the Chinese hosted site], and our ... domain name from our server in the United States has been blocked," Li said.

"Everyone knows our website's main theme is anti-corruption, and another big theme is rights activism."

Li said it wasn't hard to imagine the motivation for falling foul of the complex system of blocks, filters and human censorship known collectively as the Great Firewall.

"When we are overseeing government, there is nowhere we won't go; it doesn't matter who you are [as an official]; if you are corrupt, we will expose you," he said.

"So of course we are going to cause a reaction among some people, to stir up feelings among some people in power," Li said, adding that the site has already changed domain names 50-60 times this year.

The attacks on the rights websites come as Beijing rolls out a slew of draconian new laws aimed at further clamping down on freedom of expression online.

China's parliament, the National People's Congress (NPC), last month set out proposals to extend Beijing's already tight grip on the Chinese Internet in a draft cybersecurity law.

The draft law aims to "ensure network security, [and] safeguard the sovereignty of cyberspace and national security," according to the NPC’s official website, and will ensure Chinese Internet users aren’t allowed to "disturb the social order, [and] harm the public interest."

Meanwhile, tough new regulations requiring online publishers to attend "chats" with officials and police if they post content deemed false or inappropriate suggest a strong-armed role for China's new Internet regulator, the Cyberspace Administration.

The agency last month set out a serious of violations of rules on web content that could prompt a summons to "drink tea," a technique traditionally employed by the state security police to warn, interrogate and intimidate rights activists and dissidents.

Sites deemed to have published banned content—which might include "false information, pornography and rumors" will be obliged to send a representative to such meetings from June 1, according to official media.

在美国当兵快速变公民 募兵员玩起微信招华人(图)

新闻来源: 世界日报 于 2015-08-24 15:06:57 大字阅读 敬请注意:新闻取自各大新闻媒体,观点内容不代表本网立场!

　　三年前新移民当兵即可快速成为美国公民的特别募兵计画MAVNI（Military Accessions Vital to the National Interest）停止一段时间后，今年初再次重新启动。此次招募者更加积极主动，将目光投向华人社区，甚至开启微信服务，唿吁居住满两年的中国留学生快速加入。

　　位于艾尔蒙地的美国陆军徵兵处，大门口玻璃上中文简体字告示，「好消息：F1签证，来美两年以上……如果你加入美国陆军，在军训毕业之前，将会成为美国公民……公平、公正、公开，没有种族歧视」。

　　圣地牙哥加大数学统计科系毕业的留学生叶同学表示，理科生找工作并不难，起薪也不会太低，但唯一的问题是身分。公司虽然大方表示愿意支持工作签证H1B，但他今年4月却没有抽中，他认为即使明年再抽，机会依然不大。他6月去巴沙迪那徵兵处报名，徵兵专员还鼓励他，「有大学文凭可以升职做军官」。现在他耐心等待考试通知，期待明年1月军训，农历新年后就能入籍。

　　正在读法学院的留学生Julie认为，近几年法学院学生爆棚，毕业后工作前景堪忧，「尤其我是外国人」。她也下决心，今年春天已在徵兵处报名，一个月前刚接到背景调查，还让她做好军训准备。她表示，当兵入籍机会难得，法学院可暂时休学，但入籍的机会丢了可就再也难找到了。

　　徵兵专员Richard Quintero表示，他和办公室另外一位同仁都在手机上安装了微信App，目的就是要在华人社区中找寻有志向当兵的人，尤其是精通中英双语的中国留学生。他说，今年初MAVNI项目重新启动后，许多华人非常感兴趣，源源不断的涌入办公室，积极向他们打听入籍详情。后来，他们干脆把徵兵说明翻译成中文，贴在大门口。

　　半年多来，他已经招募了大约30多位华人，其中不少人已经顺利通过前期测试。Quintero则透过微信和他们保持联系，确保一切进展顺利。其中一位年轻女生现在已经开始在军营训练，她告诉Quintero，「训练不辛苦」，有信心能坚持下来。Quintero则说，大多数人都很坚强，至今还没有听说有人在军训中挺不过去，半途而废的，「除非身体受伤」。

　　此次特别募兵计画MAVNI招收18至34岁，至少高中毕业的男女。除英文外，还需精通44种策略性语言（strategic languages）中任何一种，包括中文、韩文、印尼、马来、老挝、缅甸、泰文等亚洲语言。持学生F签证、工作H签证、访问学者J签证、跨国公司L签证等，在美国合法居住且超过两年的外国人可报名，但旅游和商务类的B签证不符合条件。对外国人而言，参加此项目最大的诱惑莫过于：报名者接受十个星期训练（Basic Training）后即可跳过绿卡步骤，快速入籍美国公民。

　　Quintero坦言，听中国留学生抱怨现在OPT和工作签证前景都不太好。他笑言，工作签证中籤率只有三分之一，但「MAVNI是100％」。

政府强拆十字架 信徒捍卫十字架 重举十字架

请看博讯热点：宗教迫害
(博讯北京时间2015年8月24日 首发 - 支持此文作者/记者)
   
   
     近年来，全国各地，尤其是浙江当局大规模强拆十字架，面对这一情形，各基督教会信徒一方面誓死保卫十字架；另一方面政府一边强拆十字架，信徒一边重举十字架。以下就是各地信徒坚定信仰，重举十字架的消息通报。


   
    一、温州龙湾五溪教会重举十架。2014年，该会十架被政府强拆，教会三次重举十架，均被拆下。为防十架重立，政府派人二十四小时蹲守。8月22日早上六点半，教会决心重举十架，不顾该会陶崇银弟兄被带走；通往教堂的道路封锁的情况下，毅然决定照常重立十架。当局自知理亏，再加上教会的同心与决心，若再纠缠下来没完没了，于是泄了气，做出通融决定。既放了人，同时撤走蹲守人员，拆除为蹲守使用的帐篷。教界高度评价五溪教会的信心壮举，并赞赏龙湾当局做出通融的处理。教界相信：五溪教会重举十架是温州教会护教的标杆性起点，在最大程度上体现了教会守护十架信仰的决心，以及进入新历史的护教转折点。守护十架信仰的得胜秘诀与圣徒的合而为一，以及坚韧不拔的信心密不可分，这是积极扭转得胜势态的关键点。这一天，天空作美，一道彩虹，划破天际，悬挂在五溪上空，久久不愿离去。我们惊叹上帝向爱祂、敬畏祂的人所施的慈爱是何等的深广。让我们高唱得胜的赞歌：十架永远坚立，胜过一切攻击，阴间暴風吹袭，世界侵扰不息，十架仍然坚立。十架历久常存，传扬十架凯讯。哈利路亞，归十架，哈利路亚，永得胜。
   
    二、8月24日，浙江丽水花场教会第三次重举十架。让人惊喜的是，重举十架由三位高中级的主日学生完成。在他们做出重举十架决定时，遇到教内压力。有人担心政府报复，使自己的利益受损，便向这三位学生施压，叫他们自己拆下来，但“三勇士”义无反顾。“因为神赐给我们，不是胆怯的心，乃是刚强、仁爱、谨守的心(提后一7)。”
   
    三、教界相信：九月中旬前是教会集体重举十架的恰当时机。众教牧郑重呼吁浙江所有的教牧同工刚强壮胆，别理睬政府的口头威胁，或以基督徒私有财产为要挟，也无需顾忌教堂手续是否齐全，同心合意克服心理障碍，尽快达成重举十架的共识，即使教堂被毁坏，也不妥协，必须增强高举十架的决心。时间统一选在9月14“圣十架日”前集体完成重立的伟大壮举。重立期间，宜结合培灵守夜聚会，搭乘这圣灵的浪潮，守护十架同时，经历生命的大复兴，一举多得，双向大丰收。哈利路亚。
   
    四、经不完全统计，浙江各地均有教会重举十架。我们恳请众教会“不要怕，只要信”，放胆宣扬十架凯讯。浙江泰顺后洋十架再次荣耀高举；泰顺罗阳镇春阳教会重举十架；泰顺四溪镇横坑教会荣耀重举十架。温州平阳水头牧区李山教会重立十架······我们呼吁浙江当局自我抑制，立即停止干扰基督徒的信仰生活。
   
    五、温州龙湾当局在“五溪危机”中告退后(参第一条短讯)，再度冒昧挑衅教会，试图向永中等教会施压。地方官员抱怨当地教会拒绝配合统战，对一位教牧说：“五进”、“五化”是一定会进教堂的，龙湾河滨教会已配合开展，你们为什么不配合？当地教会明确拒绝。教界提醒龙湾当局，进一步干扰教会的图谋是不会得逞的，教会认清这种“温水煮青蛙”的慢性安乐死，是深具危害性的，教会绝不会屈服。对于配合统战的个别教会，像龙湾河滨这类信仰团体，将逐步被众教会所分辨被孤立，政府人员无需为此感到吃惊。这就是我们的立场。请龙湾民宗局领导周清圆局长自重，压迫基督教和升官不都是成正比的。
   
    六、温州乐清柳市堂拟配合政府开展“同心同行、共进和谐。”教界提醒柳市堂领袖及教牧成员“补课”分辨，认清“爱国会”的本质，放弃与政府之间可能存在的互换关系，因为妥协换取的表面和谐所要付出的代价远比争取自由的代价要大，耶稣说：丧失生命的比得生命。教会在终末所要面对的不是任何组织政党，而是公义的上帝，轻慢与糊涂换来的是永远的耻辱。柳市堂作为大型教会，是乐清当局统战的重点，极易被诱导利用作为“政教合一”的虚假和谐的宣传窗口。柳市堂需要聆听众圣的呼吁提醒，抵御圣经之外狡猾的诱导及恶意的慢性渗透。柳市教会急需与几位假牧师划清界限。如果柳市堂继续主动配合统战，在温州起到负面消极的影响，继续与这些假牧师混杂往来，温州教会就当毫无迟延的联合起来与该堂划清界限，停止圣工合作，停止相互往来。教界也呼吁当局停止干扰宗教的不良意图。
   
    七、香港循道卫理联合教会安素堂举行十架专题研讨会。胡志伟牧师将分享：“为了福音，我们保护十字架”。崇基神学院邢福增院长将在会中分享：“拆十风暴对中国政教格局影响”。 [博讯首发,转载请注明出处]- 支持此文作者/记者(博讯 boxun.com)

The Worldwide Females Call for Liberation of a Chinese Girl Who Was Imprisoned for Requesting for Visiting his Imprisoned Father
Set Xiaohui Free—An Innocent Daughter

三自教会创建人吴耀宗之子吴宗素：中共拆十字架就像是塔利班炸毁巴米扬大佛
2015-08-19

近一年来，浙江温州地区政府强行拆毁基督教堂顶上的十字架，而这些教堂几乎全部属于政府支持创建的“三自教会”的教产。中国“三自教会”的创办人吴耀宗之子吴宗素指出：拆毁十字架只有反文明的政权才会干，中共就像是炸毁阿富汗巴米扬大佛的塔利班。

吴宗素的父亲吴耀宗，为1949年中共建政后“中国基督教三自爱国运动委员会”的发起人，并长期担任“三自教会”的主席。居住在美国旧金山湾区的吴宗素今年85岁，他曾撰写文章揭露中共如何利用他的父亲创建和控制“三自教会”。

吴宗素近日参加旧金山湾区举行的一场“抗议强拆十字架研讨会”，并发言。他表示：对中共大肆拆毁十字架，他既是意料之外，又在意料之中。

吴宗素说：“为什么意料之外呢？中国已经跟文革的时候不一样了，有很大的变化，这种逆流而上是很不明智的。现在中共已经是四面楚歌，问题很多，它为什么还要把几千万善良的基督徒赶到对立面？这是非常愚蠢的。但我想它没有办法不这样做，因为中国的基督徒已经有几千万，快要超过共产党的人数，他们是非常紧张的。特别是人民群众已经没有一个支持的力量：马列主义没有了，《联共（布）党史》没有了，《毛选》没有了，‘四个坚持’没有了，‘三个代表’没有了，‘和谐社会’没有了，习近平现在已经没有一个思想意识能够支持人民群众。基督教看起来是一盘散沙，很多宗派，但是有一个共同的十字架、共同的《圣经》，这个十字架和《圣经》联系了全国的基督徒，还有国外的基督徒，十字架是我们信仰的象征，是认同基督教价值的表现，所以现在共产党要拆十字架。共产党居然在自己问题多多、内外交困时，还要蛮干，这是意料不到的。”

吴宗素又表示，中共拆十字架，也是意料之中的事。他说：“意料之中就是共产党是无神论者，带有反宗教的基因。1949年以来，共产党的领导，对宗教有的宽、有的严，但有个共同特点，就是从来没有认同基督教，从来不认为是可以与基督教共存的。《宪法》里讲仰自由，讲得很好听，写得也很好看，但是这个政权专制独裁，从来就是控制、消灭基督教。”

吴宗素指出：中共拆十字架与2001年塔利班炸毁巴米扬大佛，是现代世界发生的两起最野蛮的行为。他说：“拆十字架、破坏教堂，是文明国家不会干的、也不敢干的，只有反文明、反人民的政权才敢蛮干。这种蛮干就像是阿富汗的塔利班。我表明我坚决反对强拆十字架，也坚决支持教徒的正义斗争。”

吴宗素在发言中还表示：其实，“三自教会”就像是中共统战部的一个分部，教会的秘书长都是共产党员，有的会长也具有共产党员的身份。尽管这样，“三自教会”教堂的十字架仍逃不脱被拆毁的劫难。

The Worldwide Females Call for Liberation of a Chinese Girl Who Was Imprisoned for Requesting for Visiting his Imprisoned Father
Set Xiaohui Free—An Innocent Daughter

#Call for Signature Members#
http://freeonlinesurveys.com/s/c4ln61yo54pdb5c660575
May 4, 2015

We are females from different countries. We are shocked to learn BianXiaohui, a 25 year old Chinese girl, was sentenced to three years and six months in prison by Hebei Chang'an Court for requiring for visiting his imprisoned father. It is incredible and unacceptable.

Bian Xiaohui was a fresh graduate. Her father was sentenced to 12 years in prison for impeding law enforcement with evil organisations in 2012. Instead of detesting or alienating herself from her father, Bian Xiaohui and her mother visited her father month to month. However, the legal rights to visit her imprisoned father has been obstructed and rejected by the prison authorities and her mother therefore fell sick. In order to strive to meet with her father, she sent her mother back for recuperation and she herself continued to request for visiting her father. She even tried to accuse the prison authorities but the case was not accepted. Helplessly, she then held a banner with “I WANT TO SEE MY FATHER”in front of the prison and handed out cards of her story to passersby on March 3, 2014.

Unfortunately, she was arrested before long. BianXiaohui, therefore, was sentenced to three years and six months in prison by district court in Shijiazhuang, Hebei on April 15, 2015 for committing the same crime as her father. Chen Yinghua, who was fighting for Bian Xiaohui has also been sentenced.

Visiting the imprisoned relatives is the legal rights to all people not only in China but also around the world. It is affection of relatives, which will help the ones who are punished to return to the society. However, the authorities rejected their requests for seeing their relatives, which shall be exposed, charged with and rectified instead of being shielded or encouraged. And the ones who disclosed or sued shall not be retaliated.

As a female, I am greatly impressed by her deep love for her father. We are all daughters and have our own parents too. It is all very natural for a daughter to be grateful to the father and be concerned about him,for he has raised his child up. We feel appreciated by their deep affection, for the daughter never abandoned her father. Instead, she insisted on visiting her father month to month though her father has been imposed a heavy sentence. We become outraged at the prison authorities for impeding and rejecting Bian Xiaohui to visit her father. The ones who have expressed their supports for her accusing and protesting against the prison authorities should be honoured and praised both in the ancient and modern times.

However, the affectionate girl has been convicted by the court in China. The conviction of the court not only showed its support for the illegality of the prison authorities but also showed contempt for the affection between family members. It is impossible for a daughter to accept such a verdict.
Therefore, we urge Shijiazhuang intermediate court to immediately acquit Bian Xiaohui so as to protect her rights for exposing and accusing of the prison authorities for their illegal acts.

We call for the Chinese government to give commendation to Bian Xiaohuiso as to show respect and encouragement to human affection!

I A Letter from the Executive Director of Beijing Yirenping (where Bian Xiaohui works) to Shijiazhuang Intermediate People’s Court on the Case of Bian Xiaohui

May 3, 2015
Shijiazhuang Intermediate People’s Court:

I am the Executive Director of  Beijing Yirenping Center, an anti-discrimination advocacy organization. Recently, I am shocked to learn that Bian XiaoHui, an employee in our Center, was sentenced to three years and six months in prison by Shijiazhuang Chang’an people's court for breaking the law enforcement by way of heresy. Judging from our close relationships with Bian XiaoHui, we suppose she is a person with integrity and kindness, and she has a bright and cheerful disposition as well as great passion for life. It's impossible for her to break law enforcement by way of heresy. It is said that her lawyer has officially lodged an appeal. In order to have the case heard with justice and equity, we suppose it's necessary to introduce Xiaohui to you so as to enable you to know more about her. The details are as follows:

(1) Her Performance and Personality
Xiaohui is an earnest and studious girl who works with diligence and responsibility and has never made any careless mistakes. At the same time,being integrity, optimistic, reasonable and willing to learn new things and read books, she can get along very well with colleagues and has impressed us with a lot of wonderful memories. Bian Xiaohui, good at playing Guzheng, has great passion for traditional culture and has a traditional concept of Chinese family. Since XiaoHui was detained, colleagues are all very worried about her, the kind and lovely girl and hoped she could be acquitted in an early time.

(2) Her Commendable Filial Piety
Xiaohui’s hometown is in Tangshan, Hebei. She works in Beijing, but she still go back to his hometown to visit her father with mother each month when his father was imposed a heavy sentence. She is a good girl with great filial piety.Colleagues are deeply moved by her filial piety which deserves our respect.While Xiaohui was deprived of her legal right to visit her father, she strived for it by exposing their illegal acts and accusing the prison authorities, which was praised as the modern Ti Ying (a dutiful girl who rescued his father from corporal punishment for grievance). People are deeply impressed by her filial piety, and she is a great daughter like Dong Yong (a famous dutiful son) in the ancient time.

(3) She has never advertised any religious issues
As far as we know, Xiaohui’s father is imprisoned for religious problems, but she has no interest in religion at all. We never heard her advertised any religious issues, let alone that she will break the law by way of heresy. On the contrary, we have heard her talk about the jail for refusing her to visit her father for no reason, which is actually impeding the implementation of the law.

The words above are our evaluation and impression on Bian Xiaohui. We are willing to provide further testimony for the trial of the case.

Sincerely
Lu Jun
Legal Representative of Beijing Yirenping Center

Why this is important

Bian Xiaohui was a fresh graduate. Her father was sentenced to 12 years in prison for impeding law enforcement with evil organisations in 2012. Instead of detesting or alienating herself from her father, Bian Xiaohui and her mother visited her father month to month. However, the legal rights to visit her imprisoned father has been obstructed and rejected by the prison authorities and her mother therefore fell sick. In order to strive to meet with her father, she sent her mother back for recuperation and she herself continued to request for visiting her father. She even tried to accuse the prison authorities but the case was not accepted. Helplessly, she then held a banner with “I WANT TO SEE MY FATHER”in front of the prison and handed out cards of her story to passersby on March 3, 2014.

Unfortunately, she was arrested before long. BianXiaohui, therefore, was sentenced to three years and six months in prison by district court in Shijiazhuang, Hebei on April 15, 2015 for committing the same crime as her father.

Visiting the imprisoned relatives is the legal rights to all people not only in China but also around the world. It is affection of relatives, which will help the ones who are punished to return to the society. However, the authorities rejected their requests for seeing their relatives, which shall be exposed, charged with and rectified instead of being shielded or encouraged. And the ones who disclosed or sued shall not be retaliated.

However, the affectionate girl has been convicted by the court in China.The conviction of the court not only showed its support for the illegality of the prison authorities but also showed contempt for the affection between family members. It is impossible for a daughter to accept such a verdict.

Therefore, we urge Shijiazhuang intermediate court to immediately acquit Bian Xiaohui so as to protect her rights for exposing and accusing of the prison authorities for their illegal acts.

We call for the Chinese government to give commendation to Bian Xiaohuiso as to show respect and encouragement to human affection!

The denial of visits was in violation of Chinese law (see further details below about the circumstances of Ms. Bian’s arrest). Bian Xiaohui was forcibly seized from her home after she publicly demonstrated several times in the streets near the prison, insisting to see her father. After a yearlong pretrial detention, she was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison.

IV. Describe the circumstances of the arrest.

According to Bian Xiaohui, before she was taken away around 5 p.m. on March 12, 2014, more than a dozen police officers and national security guards barged into her home. They yelled at her and forcefully seized her without a warrant. Prior to this—on March 4, 7, and 12—Bian had held a banner in public near Shijiazhuang Prison, where her father is incarcerated, that said, “I want to see my father.” When people asked about her situation, she told them she has not been allowed to see her father for a couple of months and that she worried about his conditions in prison.

Under Chinese law, Bian and her mother should have been allowed at least one visit a month to see Bian Lichao, but their request to visit him had not been granted every month; prison authorities denied some monthly meetings in 2013, including in November and December. The last time Ms. Bian was granted visitation was on January 20, 2015, despite the fact that she and her mother tried to meet Bian Lichao every month up until the time that Ms. Bian was detained.

At Ms. Bian’s last prison visit with her father, he informed her of mistreatment he suffered, including deprivation of proper medical treatment for heart disease, and said that prison authorities were trying to coerce him into cooperating with them in unlawful (but unspecified) activities. Bian Lichao told his daughter that family visits had been previously denied due to his resistance to cooperate with the authorities. Both father and daughter agreed that he should not comply with them in engaging in any unlawful activities, a stance that we believe contributed to the eventual deprivation of visitation rights.

 

V. Indicate reasons why you consider the arrest and/or detention to be arbitrary

It is strongly believed that Ms. Bian’s detention and subsequent prison term have been retaliation for her trying to expose her father’s mistreatment and other unlawful behavior on the part of local authorities, as well as her demands to visit him. Through her public demonstrations and online activities, Bian exposed that authorities were in violation of Article 48 of China’s Prison Law, which stipulates that prisoners be allowed to meet with family and guardians. In addition, according to Article 45 of Measures for the Administration of Convicts Retained at Jails for Execution of Sentences, detainees are allowed visitation by family up to two times a month, a right that Ms. Bian and her mother were not allowed to exercise. Her initial detention is believed to be a pretext to stop Bian from informing the public about her situation and her father’s case, especially after she posted videos of police officers harassing her when she publicly demanded to visit her father and shared information about mistreatment that he has suffered. Police took her into custody around the time of major legislative meetings of the Chinese Communist Party in Beijing—a typically “sensitive” political period in early March when the country’s authorities are on high alert to “maintain stability.”

Authorities blatantly violated laws and deprived human rights throughout Ms. Bian’s case, from the period of initial detention through her trial. When she was first seized, police did not provide a detention notice. This violates Article 83 of China’s Criminal Procedure Law (CPL), which stipulates that public security bureau officers must produce a detention warrant when detaining an individual. In addition, the charge against her, “using a cult to undermine implementation of the law,” is fabricated, and is a trumped-up allegation often used to arbitrarily retaliate against individuals in China who have any involvement in religious or spiritual practice. In fact, however, Bian had not participated in any religious or spiritual activities, and nor did she did mention religious or spiritual beliefs when talking to passersby during her public demonstrations.

In addition, Ms. Bian was deprived of her right to access legal counsel. After nearly two months of incommunicado detention, Bian was only allowed to see her lawyers in early May 2014. Bian told them the violations she had suffered, including torture and other forms of mistreatment. According to Bian, authorities denied visits by her lawyers because she refused to wear prison uniform and shackles. Moreover, she was forced to sleep on the floor for 25 days, from March 19 to April 14, 2014, while forced to use laundry detergent to wash her hair and freezing cold water to wash her body. Prison authorities also force-fed Bian after she staged a hunger strike for a week in protest against the deprived right to legal counsel, despite the fact that she had expressed willingness to eat.

Myriad legal and procedural violations occurred throughout Ms. Bian’s trial, with local authorities obstructing her right to a fair and open trial. Her first-instance trial was held on August 21, 2014, at the Qiaodong District People’s Court in Shijiazhuang, but authorities prevented family members and others (including representatives from the Canadian Embassy) from attending, despite their having received prior permission to observe. Such behavior violates China’s CPL, which stipulates that first-instance trials shall be heard in public (Articles 11 and 152 of the 1996 CPL; Article 183 of the 2013 CPL). Her lawyers protested the barring of Bian’s family members from the courtroom, and proceedings were temporarily suspended. Most of the people allowed to attend the proceedings were government personnel and people who were paid to observe, according to one individual in attendance. The lack of judicial independence is also evident in testimonies against Bian, as most “evidence” presented in court reportedly was provided by Shijiazhuang Prison personnel and police officers.

On December 12, 2014, the first-instance trial resumed, at the Chang’an District People’s Court in Shijiazhuang. However, only one of her lawyers was allowed to attend while family members and others were again denied entry. Police harassed Bian’s supporters outside the courthouse and blocked them from entering. On April 10, 2015, the court convicted and sentenced Biao Xiaohui to 3.5 years in prison in a closed trial; one of Bian’s lawyers was only informed of the verdict several days later.

The circumstances of Bian’s detention and ongoing imprisonment satisfy both Category II (i.e., when the deprivation of liberty results from the exercise of the rights or freedoms guaranteed by articles 7, 13, 14, 18, 19, 20, and 21 of the UDHR and Category III (i.e., when the total or partial non-observance of the international norms relating to the right to a fair trial, spelled out in the UDHR and in the relevant international instruments accepted by the States concerned, is of such gravity as to give the deprivation of liberty an arbitrary character).

 

VI. Indicate internal steps, including domestic remedies, taken especially with the legal and administrative authorities, particularly for the purpose of establishing the detention and, as appropriate, their results or the reasons why such steps or remedies were ineffective or why they were not taken.

Friends of Bian Xiaohui tried to file a compliant against her unlawful arrest, but it was rejected. To amass public support, her family members, friends, and lawyers posted her case background and updates online. Ms. Bian’s case has received coverage in the media, and foreign diplomats were informed of her case. In particular, representatives from the Canadian Embassy received permission to observe Bian’s trial, but they were denied entry on two separate days of hearings. Recently, a group of people started an online campaign (in both Chinese and English) calling for her release.
