【新唐人2013年09月16日讯】中国知名投资人王功权最近被北京警方带走,以“涉嫌扰乱公共场所秩序”为名刑事拘留。中共当局的这一系列打压言论自由的行动,招来海内外各界谴责抗议不断。王功权被抓后,大陆一些媒体的官方微博更罕见的转载相关文章,用隐晦的方式来声援王功权。下面请看报导。
9月13号,北京市公安局出动20多名警察对大陆知名商人王功权进行抄家,拿走一部电脑、两个镜框和若干公民徽章。当晚,王功权被警方刑事拘留,罪名是“涉嫌扰乱公共场所秩序”。
现年52岁的王功权是大陆知名企业家、风险投资家,曾任万通集团总裁,是鼎晖创业投资基金合伙人及创始人。近年来王功权关注中国民间公民社会的成长,是法律学者许志永等人创办的“公盟”成员,与人权活跃人士交往频繁。
王功权被刑事拘留之后,北京万圣书园总经理刘苏里、传知行社会经济研究所创办人郭玉闪和笑蜀立即发起联署“关于王功权先生被刑拘的紧急声明”,谴责当局对王功权的指控与抓捕。
中国东南大学法学教授张赞宁:“他是一个很理性的人。从来不可能有过激的行为,‘扰乱公共社会秩序’更不可能,肯定是‘欲加之罪。’”
《大纪元新闻网》报导,王功权被刑拘的消息也引起大陆媒体的关注。多家大陆媒体通过官方微博发声,转载此前关于王功权的相关报导,用隐晦的方式表达对王功权的声援。
《财新网》官方微博发文说,王功权是一位成功商人,但他更看重“公民”身份。该微博还重温文章,描述王功权夜探北京“黑监狱”和参与“钱云会事件”等维权活动。
《中国经营报》微博列出王功权做企业家的5项原则,其中第一项就是:不加入执政党政治组织。
《中国企业家杂志》官方微博则直言,王功权不愿意做犬儒,而是热心公益,关注弱势群体。
近几个月来,大陆当局加紧了对许志永倡议的“中国新公民运动”的打压,并严控舆论,很多相关人士被传唤抓捕。最近,中共最高法院和检察院更是宣称:网上信息被点击五千次,或者被转发五百次,发布者就可能面临“诽谤罪”的刑事指控。这一所谓法律解释让海内外一片哗然。
中国社会问题研究人士张健:“都是来告诫中国的知识精英、这些名人们,一定要跟共产党高度保持一致。如果说你过分的踩了这条线,触犯了共产党给你划的底线的话,那么你所有的一切、你所拥有的,它很可能就剥夺。”
此前,王功权在新浪微博上的粉丝已经超过130万,但是当局注销了他的账号,并将“王功权”列为敏感词。
大陆资深媒体人、前《新华社》记者高瑜:“目标都是很明确的,只要你有言论,你是支持宪政的,对于这些人都是非常重的警告。”
此外在上一周,杭州警方怀疑前浙江大学教师、法律工作者庄道鹤参与新公民运动,而传唤他8小时。另一位网络活跃人士吴斌,因在微博发表言论被警方以“散布传播谣言”行政拘留。
北京维权律师江天勇:“幻想当局主动放弃权力,没有可能。只有靠公民自己、民众成长,有博弈的资本,才能去谈变化。”
《法国国际广播电台》引用网络消息说,就在几天前,王功权还曾经为女儿举行婚礼,潘石屹等万通高层悉数到场。潘石屹将婚礼图片发到网上,并写道:“功权嫁女,多保重!”微博大V任志强也发文声援:“功权你在哪?”

China’s Media Cryptically Supported Wang Gongquan on Micro-Blogs While He is Under Criminal Detention
Wang Gongquan, a well-known investor in China,
was arrested by Beijing police and charged with disturbing public order.
The party’s series of crackdown activities on
freedom of speech caused a wide range of protests domestically and internationally.
After Wang was arrested, quite a few media outlets
in China cryptically supported him by reprinting the past positive reports in their official micro-blogs.
On September 13, more than 20 Beijing police searched
Wang Gongquan’s house and confiscated his computer,
two photo frames, and a few citizen metals.
On the same night, Wang Gongquan was arrested
on charges of disturbing public order.
Wang Gongquan, 52-years old, is a well-known
entrepreneur and a venture capitalist.
He is the former chief executive officer of
Wan Tong Groups and also a partner and founder of CDH venture investment fund.
In recent years, Wang Gongquan has been concerned
with the growth of China’s citizen societies,
and kept a close relationship with active
human right activists.
He is a member the Union of Citizens, which was
founded by legislation scholar Xu Zhiyong.
After Wang Gongquan’s criminal detention, Liu Suli,
CEO of Bejing Wangsheng Book Garden, Guo Yunshan,
founder of Transition Institute, and Xiao Shu, publicized
an emergency declaration reprimanding the charge against Mr. Wang.
Zhang Zanning, law professor from Northeastern
University in China: “Wang is a very rational person and
it’s absolutely impossible for him to conduct
anything extreme.
The charge of ‘disturbing public order’ against him
is very ridiculous.
If the authorities are out to condemn Mr. Wang,
they can always trump up a charge.”
As reported by www.epochtimes.com, the news
of Mr.Wang’s detention also brought attention from domestic media in China.
Quite a few media in China voiced support for Mr. Wang
by reprinting the past positive reports about him
in their official micro-blogs, supporting Mr. Wang
in an indirect way.
The article from caixin.com says that
Wang is a very successful business man,
but Wang values his identity as a citizen even more.
The micro-blog reviewed the article about how Wang
visited “illegal prisons” in Beijing during
the night hours and participated in the human rights
activity regarding the Qian Yunhui Case.
The China Business micro-blog listed the five principles
that Wang Gongquan follows as a business man.
The first one is that Mr. Wang would never join
an organization of the ruling party (the Chinese Communist Party, or CCP).
The China Entrepreneur micro-blog stated that Wang
Gongquan is not willing to be subservient to the party.
He makes earnest efforts to promote public welfare
and is concerned about the interests of groups in disadvantage in China.
In recent months, the authorities have escalated
the suppression of the New Citizens Movement in China promoted by Xu Zhiyong.
The crackdown on public opinions is even more severe.
A lot of activists have been summoned or arrested.
Recently, the party’s Supreme Court and procuratorate
even declared that the publisher for any online information
being clicked on 5,000 times or being forwarded 500 times
will possibly face the charge of crime of defamation.
This interpretation of the law has caused uproar
domestically and internationally.
Zhang Jian, researcher of China’s issues: “This law is to warn
China’s intellectual elites and celebrities to follow the party’s steps closely.
If you surpass the line, the bottom line that the party
has drawn for you, everything you own will be deprived from you.”
Wang Gongquan used to have more than 1,300 thousand
fans in his sina micro-blog account.
However, the authorities suspended his account and
listed “Wang Gongquan” as a sensitive word.
Gao Yu, medium professional and former reporter of
Xinhua News Agency: “The party’s intention is very clear.
If you support constitutionalism, what happened
to Wang Gongquan is the lesson you should learn.”
In addition, last week Hangzhong police suspected
that Zhuang Daohe, professor of Zhejiang University
and scholar of legislation, had participated
in the “New Citizen Movement.”
Zhaung was interrogated for 8 hours.
Another online activist Wu Bin was detained on
charges of spreading rumors.
Beijing Lawyer Jiang Tianyong: ”It’s absolutely impossible
that the party would take the initiative to give up its power.
Only the growing power of citizens can build up the capital
needed to play the game with the party, and can we imagine a possible change to the situation.”
As reported by Radio France International,
a couple of days ago,
Wang Gongquan held his daughter’s wedding and
Pan Shiyi and other executives of Wan Tong Groups came to congratulate him.
Later, Pan Shiyi posted the wedding pictures online
and wrote, “Gongquan married her daughter off, and please take care.”
Ren Zhiqiang, VIP user of micro-blog, also posted lines
saying “where are you, Gongquan?”
