【新唐人2014年01月28日訊】1月25號,大陸官方媒體引述新疆烏魯木齊市公安局官方微博的消息,羅列了上週三被抓的維族學者伊力哈木的諸多罪名。但這些罪名被伊力哈木妻子一概否定。同時,海內外已有超過1600人聯署簽名,要求北京當局釋放伊力哈木。下面請看報導。
大陸官媒紛紛援引新疆烏魯木齊市公安局的官方微博消息說:「中央民族大學」教師伊力哈木•土赫提與所謂境外「東突」勢力勾結,利用課堂煽動「推翻政府」,形成了分裂國家的犯罪團夥。
官方還指稱:伊力哈木創辦「維吾爾在線」網站,組織人員充當網站管理員、和通訊員、信息員,藉機製造事端,煽動民族仇恨,鼓吹「新疆獨立」。
官方羅列的這一系列罪名顯然讓伊力哈木的妻子古再努爾無法接受,她氣憤的表示:「他們實在太過份了!」
伊力哈木妻子古再努爾:「真的不明白他們說甚麼呢。因為我老公沒有他們微博發的那樣情況。他就是個大學老師在學校有課,沒有他們說的那個東突、甚麼新疆獨立、甚麼甚麼活動。」
古再努爾談到,警方至今沒有告知家人,伊力哈木被關在甚麼地方。她自己的行動也一直處於警察的嚴密監視之中。不管是上街買菜、接送孩子,都被警察跟蹤。甚至她兩個年幼的孩子出去玩,警察也要隨身跟蹤,對孩子們影響非常不好。
據報導,現年45歲的伊力哈木是北京「中央民族大學」的經濟學副教授。2006年,他創辦了「維吾爾在線」網站,成為外界了解新疆問題真實狀況的重要窗口。伊力哈木批評北京當局:推行民族歧視、對宗教信仰和正常社會活動進行限制,加劇了新疆民族間矛盾。
伊力哈木被大陸民間公認為是一位溫和的學者。他反對新疆獨立與任何暴力行為,還積極推動維、漢兩族之間的友好溝通,並寄希望於當局調整錯誤的新疆政策。但即使這樣,伊力哈木仍然被當局視為危險人物,多次被拘留、軟禁和騷擾。
近來,新疆地區局勢緊張、衝突不斷。北京當局對新疆的維穩力度也不斷升級。
1月15號下午,警察將伊力哈木從北京家中帶走,併進行了大規模抄家。
北京社會活動家胡佳:「我覺得如果當局這次抓伊力哈木並把他真正投入牢獄的話,那麼它實際上就是在繼續點燃當地人反抗的火焰,或者說是火上澆油。」
北京社會活動家胡佳表示,像伊力哈木這樣持溫和主張的人,都遭到當局的打壓,這會讓維族人覺得越來越沒有生存空間、沒有出路。
胡佳:「如果說伊力哈木與新公民運動的那些人一樣,走入了司法程序,一步步的被共產黨放入牢獄,那麼整個過程中,我們也要為他呼籲,這不是維吾爾一個民族的問題。」
胡佳強調,伊力哈木是維、漢兩族溝通的幾乎唯一的重要橋樑,但現在共產黨把這個橋給拆了。
1月17號,北京民族問題專家及民間環保人士王力雄,發起「無罪釋放伊力哈木」的聯署行動,截至26號晚間,已經有來自數十個國家的1645人聯署簽名,呼籲中共當局釋放伊力哈木。
另據《德國之聲》報導,古再努爾已正式聘請北京律師李方平,擔任伊力哈木的辯護律師。
歐盟駐中國大使艾德和(Markus Ederer)也敦促北京,澄清伊力哈木被抓一事,並告知他被關押的地點。艾德和還對北京不斷「收緊人權」的做法表示關注。
美國國務院發言人帕薩基(Jen Psaki)則在一份聲明中表示,美國對於伊力哈木遭到扣押「深表關注」,並敦促北京當局公布他的下落。

Chinese Regime Undermines Uyghur-Han Relations by Arresting Scholar Ilham Tohti.
On January 25, official Mainland Chinese media cited an Urumqi Public Security Bureau Weibo account.The news listed a number of charges that have
been brought against Uyghur scholar Ilham Tohti.Ilham Tohti was arrested last Wednesday. His wife Guzaili Nu’er refutes the charges.A petition asking the Beijing authorities to release him has been signed by more than 1,600 people from China and overseas.
Let ‘s see our report.
Mainland state-controlled media cited news from an official Weibo account, belonging to Urumqi Public Security Bureau.
It reported that, Ilham Tohti, an Associate Professor at the Central University for Nationalities, has been collaborating with so-called overseas “East Turkistan".
It alleged that Tohti instigated students to “overturn the government” during classes,and formed a criminal team to split the country.
The report also alleged that Tohti created a website called “Uyghur Online".
He recruited people to act as web administrators,correspondents and messengers, to incite ethnic hatred, and advocate independence of Xinjiang.
Ilham ‘s wife Guzaili Nu’er refuted this series of official charges, responding angrily: “They are going too far!"
Guzaili Nu’er: “I don ‘t understand what they are saying about my husband.
He is absolutely not as he is described on the Weibo account. He is a college teacher working in the university.He conducts no such activities related toEast Turkistan or Xinjiang independence."
Guzaili Nu’er confirmed that until now, the police had not yet informed Ilham ‘s family about where he is detained.
She is also rigidly monitored by the police.
When she goes for her daily food shopping, or picking up and dropping off her kids at school, she ‘s tracked by police.Even when her two young children go out to play,the police also closely track and monitor them.
This seriously impacts the them in a negative way.
According to the report, 45-year-old Ilham Tohti is an Associated Professor majoring in economics at the Central University of Nationalities, in Beijing.
In 2006, he created the website “Uyghur Online."
This is a key online portal to allow the world to understand the real situation in Xinjiang.He criticized Beijing authorities for their implementation of ethnic discrimination policies.The regime restricts religious activities and normal social activities, which has intensified ethnic conflicts in Xinjiang.
Ilham is well recognized as a mild scholar by mainland people.
He objects to Xinjiang independence or any violent actions, actively promoting peaceful negotiations between Uyghur and Han ethnics.
Ilham hopes the authorities will make adjustments to oppressive Xinjiang policies.Despite his stance, he is still regarded by the Chinese authorities as a dangerous figure.He has been detained, arrested and place under house arrest many times.
In recent years, the situation in Xinjiang has seen escalating tensions and conflicts. The Beijing regime has repeatedly stepped up it ‘s use of force in Xinjiang, to try to oppress any activities.
On the afternoon of January 15, the police detained Ilham, and ransacked his home.
Hu Jia, Beijing social activist: “If the authorities arrest Ilham, and give him a jail sentence, this will only ignite further conflict, and add fuel to the fire".
Hu Jia questions when even a person like Ilham Tohti is suppressed by the authorities, with his recognized peaceful opinions.
This will only make the Uyghur people increasingly feel that they have no space for survival.That they are backed into a corner.
Hu Jia: “If Ilham is treated like those from the New Citizen
Movement, he will be also punished by legal procedures.Finally, he will be sentenced with imprisonment.During the whole process, we will appeal for him.
This is not an issue that is only pertinent to one ethnic group, or only to Uyghurs."
Hu Jia emphasizes that Ilham is almost the only important channel bridging the Uyghur and Han ethnic groups.
The Chinese Communist Party are destroying that bridge.
On January 17, Wang Lixiong, Beijing ethnic research expertand environment activist, launched a petition calling to “release of Ilham Tohti without any charges".
Up until the evening of January 26, 1,645 people
from more than 10 countries have signed the petition.
They are appealing to the Chinese regime to release Ilham.
According to a report by Deutsche Welle, Guzaili Nu’er has formally engaged Beijing lawyer Li Fangping, to take her husbands case.
Markus Ederer, European Union Ambassador to China, urged Beijing to clarify the reasons for detaining Ilham.Mr Ederer also called for the release of information on Ilham ‘s whereabouts.He is concerned that the actions of Beijing are “narrowing human rights."
Jen Psaki, spokesperson for the US State Department, commented in a statement.
The US are “deeply concerned" that Ilham has been detained, and urge the Beijing Authorities to release information on his whereabouts.
