【新唐人2013年07月13日讯】最近大陆媒体，长篇报导中国精神病患者的人数和处境，相对的“被精神病”事件也频频被曝光。一直以来，精神病院可以说是中共公安部门的一个分支机构，许多维权人士、上访人士被以精神病的名义，关押在精神病院遭受折磨与迫害，时有所闻。那么，媒体所报导的中国精神病人超过1亿人，这个数字背后又是代表什么意思呢？
住在哈尔滨的赵桂荣，她的丈夫邢世库，因为向国家信访局反映他在国有企业改制前后，自身应得的职工待遇被厂长王凯民侵占等问题，而被当局强行绑架关进哈尔滨市第一专科精神病医院，后来又转移到道外区精神病院关押，到现在已经第七年了。这是个典型的、发生在现今中国大陆的被精神病事例。
大陆黑龙江省居民赵桂荣:“信访部的官员他就是叫我们拿钱去赎人，因为当时我们把房子押了，赎都没赎出来，因为他们是流动的，好多都像我爱人一样访民好多人和我一样，中国不是我自己，比我惨的和一样惨的有的是。”
赵桂荣的朋友马波，也陪着她一起去精神病院探访她丈夫，马波说，一个正常人被关进精神病院，迟早会出事。
大陆黑龙江省居民马波：“他(邢世库)是在北京上访期间给抓过去的，很正常的（人），他跑了好几次都给被抓回来了，承包的医院的院长说他也没有什么专科文品，专门治疗精神病这块的他也没有，他也说得很明确、谁送来、谁拿钱、谁说话。”
反腐维权联盟成员刘纯宝、马波、小胖，两次陪同赵桂荣到精神病院要人，但医院的院长说，谁拿钱送进来的谁说了算。
中国没有专门的精神健康法律，造成了中国的精神病人被乱收治的局面，医生僭越法官的权力，医院无须事先见过当事人，无须事先进行医学诊断，收治时无须听取本人的意见。仅凭送治人单方面提供的描述，医院就可以把人强行收治起来。这种收治方式与被收押没有什么不同。
于是，当局将上访者投入精神病院﹗那么在这种环境下，有可能每一个人都会变成精神病人。
日前官方的资料显示，中国各类精神疾病患者有1亿人以上，其中重症精神病患者超过1600万。在这庞大的精神病患背后，有多少访民是被精神病呢﹖
7月5号，广西藤县第三人民医院有42名精神病人集体逃脱。据报导，这些所谓的病人挟持医院的巡查护理员，并抢走护理员的锁匙、手机及现金、然后打开病区的大门逃出。
虽然这42名精神病人逃走后又被全部追回，但是“病人为何能强行出走？”、“医院是如何管理的？”、“是否有人被精神病？”民众急于了解这些疑点。
大陆《财经网》的副主编罗昌平就在微博提出质疑，他问，一群重症疯子何以策划逃跑？他们如何说服超过八成的疯子，并绕过正常的医护人员？其中有无被精神病？这里隐藏了多少悲剧与罪恶？
有网友说，这说明司法如不独立，就算取消劳教照样有办法送你进精神病院被精神病。
大陆权利运动组织发起人胡军：“精神病这一块，一直是中共打压异议人士，打压这个访民和法轮功群体成员，但这一直都没有被大家关注，但是现在这件事情肯定要突出了，有更多的访民被抓了被失踪了，是不是都关精神病院，但是劳教所这块撤了的话，但撤了那人员应该怎么处理？”
对于最近北京一家较大规模的劳教所正在低调释放被劳教人员，大陆权利运动组织发起人胡军表示，是不是当局把劳教制度废了，把这些人又重新关进精神病院，通过另外一种换汤不换药的手法，来对中国的百姓进行迫害呢﹖这是大家值得关注的问题。

Where are China’s Over 100 Million Mental Patients from?
Mainland Chinese media recently published a lengthy report
on the number of China’s mental patients and their situation.
Meanwhile, cases of mentally fit people being forcibly
placed in mental facilities have been often revealed.
Mental facility has always been a branch organization of
the Chinese Communist party’s Public Security Bureau.
Many rights activists and petitioners are placed
in mental facilities, and face torture and persecution.
Then, one may wonder: What’s the story behind the
100 million mental patients in China reported by the media?
Zhao Guirong from Harbin told NTD that her husband
Xing Shiku went to the National Petition Office to report on
his factory director for taking his work benefits.
He was then taken and forcibly placed in Harbin First Hospital’s
Mental Department after he reported the issues.
Xing was later transferred to Daowai District Mental Hospital,
and he’s been there for 7 years.
That is a typical case in modern China that
a person with a healthy mental condition
is forcibly placed into mental institutions.
Zhao Guirong, resident of Heilongjiang province:
“An official at the petition office asked us to post bail for [my husband].
We mortgaged our house, but still couldn’t get him out.
There are so many petitioners like my husband.
Many of them are like myself,
and many are even more miserable than me.”
Zhao Guirong’s friend Ma Bo accompanied Zhao
to visit her husband in the mental hospital once.
Ma Bo says that a normal person would have a problem
sooner or later while being detained there in the hospital.
Ma Bo, resident in Helongjiang province:
“He (Xing Shiku) was arrested in Beijing while petitioning.
He’s a very normal person.
He tried to escape many times, but was caught every time.
The hospital said that they didn’t have a mental department.
Whoever is sent to there must pay to negotiate.”
Anti-corruption and Activists Alliance members Liu Chunbao,
Ma Bo, and Xiao Pang accompanied Zhao Guirong twice
to the mental hospital to ask for her husband Xing’s release.
But the hospital director said that
he would listen to whoever brings money.
China doesn’t have specific mental health laws, which leads
to people being arbitrarily treated as mental patients.
Doctors and hospitals don’t need to ask for patients’ opinion,
nor do they need to have medical diagnosis before treatment.
Simply according to the description of whoever sends
the patient, the hospital will receive the patient, it would be the same as detaining someone.
Thus, local authorities place petitioners in mental hospitals.
In that environment, anyone could be labeled mentally ill.
Current official data says that there are over 100 million
people with various types of mental illnesses in China,
among them, over 1.6 million have severe mental illness.
How many petitioners among those mental patients
are “forced to be mentally ill”?
A group of 42 mental patients together escaped
the Third Hospital of Tengxian in Guangxi province on July 5.
According to the report, those so-called mental patients
captured care workers and snatched keys, cell phones,
and cash and then escaped.
Although the 42 mental patients were all caught again later,
people are eager to know: “Why did the patients run away?”,
“How does the hospital manage the mental patients?”,
and “Was anyone labeled mentally ill, and forcibly put there?”
Luo Changping, associate editor of financial website Caijing.com,
questions: “How could a group of lunatics plan an escape?”
“How could they convince so many other patients to join in,
and then, even get past the care workers?”
“Are there normal people being forcibly detained?”
“How many tragedies and crimes are being hidden here?”
A netizen says that as long as the judiciary isn’t independent,
even if the labor camp system is abolished, you can still be
labeled mentally ill, and placed in a mental hospital.
Hu Jun, founder of Human Rights Campaign in China:
“China’s mental hospitals have always been used for
suppressing dissidents, petitioners,
and Falun Gong practitioners.
But it hasn’t been paid attention to.
But now this thing must be highlighted.
More and more petitioners are arrested and end up missing.
Were they placed in mental hospitals?
If labor camps are abolished, what do they do to those people?”
Regarding a large labor camp in Beijing releasing inmates
in a low-key way, Hu Jun says that
whether the authorities abolish the labor reeducation
system, or just move those detained into mental hospitals.
Regardless of what method is used, aren’t they all superficial
changes to methods used to persecute the Chinese people?
This is a matter of great concern.
