【新唐人2012年11月06日訊】香港《爭鳴》雜誌報導,中共「十七屆七中全會」就司法體制改革當中的熱點──勞教制度的存廢,進行了不公開討論,主張廢除勞教的溫家寳再次遭到「政法委和維穩派」勢力的阻撓。爲何雙方在十八大前要再次就這一制度針鋒相對呢?請看分析。
《爭鳴》的文章引用來自北京的可靠消息說:溫家寶希望在胡溫新政結束以前,徹底廢除勞教制度。但中央政法委和維穩派系則主張,從縮短勞教期限入手來改革,但保留勞教制度。
文章說,廢除勞教制度不僅牽涉到勞教體系的幾萬名司法警察和武警的飯碗,而且必將涉及到中共「防範和處理邪教」領導機構,也就是原名「610」辦公室的合法性。
時事評論員張傑連:「『610』之所以能夠把這麽多人關押進來,主要的一點就是在利用這個不經法律審判,就可以任意給人定罪,就是先把人關起來進行迫害這麽一個手段。所以江系人馬一旦失去這個打人的棍子的話,他的迫害在司法這條綫上就斷掉了。」
文章分析:目前中國勞教體制關押的19萬人中,真正按勞教制度本意該關押的人,僅佔31%。此外,法輪功修煉者佔37%,超過7萬人;上訪維權人士佔15%,接近3萬人;其它「非登記」的宗教團體參與者佔9%,有1萬7,000人。這些異議人士和不同信仰者的刑期,如果都是經過法院審理而判決的話,會讓中共在人權方面的劣行大面積暴露。
民間自由學者以及體制內的大部份知識份子主張廢除勞教制度,而民衆對廢除勞教制度的呼聲更高。但政法委的一些高官則再次堅持保留勞教制度。此前在「北戴河會議」時,面對溫家寳強烈呼籲廢除勞教制度,周永康就「警告」說,勞教制度是鎮壓國內「敵對勢力」的制度保證,如果全面廢除,共產黨將面臨下臺的危險。
山東維權律師李向陽:「在中國,政法委的設立徹底的把中國公、檢、法的框架打亂了,在這種情況下,假如廢除勞教制度的話,他們就會失去用權力來作威作福的這麼一個工具。他們的權力不就小了嗎?他們作威作福的能量不就小了嗎?所以說,他們就是堅決的要保留這個制度。」
目前中共勞教制度主要的依據,是1982年修定的《勞動教養試行辦法》。但這一「試行」的辦法一試就是30年,一直遭到學者和法律界人士抨擊,認爲它實際是「黨大於法」的產物。
山東維權律師李向陽:「中國的勞教制度,首先說是違反憲法的。從本質上說,就是因為中國是『人治』,權大於法,就在這種國情下,出現這個勞教制度。這是中國沒有法治的一個最明顯的標致。」
備受抨擊的勞改制度能否被廢除,開始從「人治」向「法治」轉變,被認爲是未來習近平政治是否具有道德性的重要標誌。
張傑連:「圍繞著勞教制度的存廢,互相之間的鬥爭,發自民間的呼聲一直都有,最近一段時間越來越激烈了。所以我相信,這個應該是作為是真改革還是假改革,真的是要廢除黑手段,真正的走上法律民主道路,實際上它可以成爲一個『試金石』。」
李向陽:「習近平這一屆,假如說,他們要想讓社會向公平、公正合理化推進的話,廢除勞教制度勢在必行的。習近平這一屆他們上去之後,還是死抱著勞教制度不放的話,就說明習近平他們這一屆領導人還是不改變共產黨邪惡的本質,繼續向反人民這個路子走下去。」
《爭鳴》的文章還提到,雖然勞教制度存廢是內部討論,但很可能對將來政策產生影響,有可能引發一場黨內政治鬥爭。而堅持不廢又不公開勞教人員的構成,也可以引發大規模的社會抗議,乃至成為中國版「阿拉伯之春」的誘發點。

Hong Kong media: Wen proposed abolishing Labor Reeducation
System and claimed “610 office” illegal.
Hong Kong’s Chengming magazine reported
during the meeting of 7th Plenary Session of the 17th,
there a closed discussion if Labor Reeducation System (LRS)
should be kept. LRS is the hot topic of the judicial system reform.
Wen Jiabao, who proposed abolishing LRS, is again obstructed
by the group of Politics and Law Committee and the maintaining stability faction.
Why did the two factions play tit for tat on this
before the 18th Congress? Let’s see the analysis.
The Chengming article quoted reliable sources from Beijing,
that Wen Jiabao hoped to abolish LRS completely at the end
of “Hu(Jintao)-Wen(Jiabao)” new policies.
However, Politics and Law Committee and the maintaining
stability faction proposed reform through reducing the time of labor reeducation, but keeping the LRS spirit.
The article said that abolishing LRS is not only involved in
the work of many thousands of judicial and armed police but also involved in the legitimacy of the “610 office”.
The “610 office” later changed its name to Central Leading
Group on Dealing with Heretical Religions.
Zhang Jielian, Current Affairs Commentator: “『610 office’
can detain so many people, taking advantage of the LRS.
This system can first detain and then persecute people
who are sent without trial to labor camps.
So once Jiang (Zemin)’s faction lose this weapon,
their persecution method will be cut off in the judicial areas.
The article analyzed that currently, among 190,000 detainees of
LRS, only 31% should be detained for the real purpose of LRS.
Also 37% detainees are Falun Gong practitioners, over 70,000.
15% are petitioners, about 30,000 of them; 9% are participators
of other non-registered religious groups, about 17,000.
If these dissenters were sentenced through trial in court, the
CCP’s human rights evil violations will be widely exposed.
Independent scholars and most intellectual within the system
support abolishing the LRS.
The publics’ voice to abolish the system are also very high.
However, some high officials of the Politics and
Law Committee insisted on keeping the LRS.
Wen Jiabao also strongly called on the abolishing of the
LRS in “BeiDaiHe” meeting.
However, Zhou Yongkang warned that the LRS is to ensure
the crack down the domestic hostile forces.
If it is abolished completely, the Chinese Communist Party
(CCP) will be at risk of collapse.
Human right attorney in Shandong, Li Xiangyang: “In China,
the Political and Law committee completely disordered the law frame system of public security, procurator and court.
In this situation, if they abolish the LRS,
they will lose the tool by which they can be domineering.
Will their energies of domineering reduce?
They will keep the system firmly in place.”
Now, the main basis of LRS is the trial measure
for reeducation through labor collated in 1982.
However, the trial measures were performed 30 years.
The scholars and legal professionals attacked it thinking
it was the production of “Party’s power is bigger than the law”.
Li Xiangyang: “First,
the Chinese LRS violated the constitution.
In essence, just because the CCP power is bigger than the
Law in China, the LRS came out in this situation.
This is the most significant sign of lawlessness in China.”
Whether abolishing the controversial LRS, from “man rule”
to “law rule”, is an important sign of Xin Jinpin’s policy plan.
Zhang Jielian: “The argument on abolishing the LRS always
exists, including different factions’ struggle and peoples’ voices.
Recently, things have intensified.
I believe it is the touchstone of real reform, by really abolishing
gangster means and going down legal democratic road.”
Li Xiangyang: “for Xi Jinpin’s leaderships, if they hope to keep
social justice and developing reasonably, they must abolish LRS.
If under Xi’s leadership they still want to keep the LRS, it shows
that Xi can’t change the CCP’s evil nature which will continue.”
The article also mentioned, though it was an inside discussion,
it could influence the future policies.
And it could trigger a political fighting inside the Party.
Keeping LRS and not opening up its composition
can lead to large-scale social protest, even becoming the trigger point of a Chinese “Arab Spring”.
