【新唐人2014年01月07日讯】《南方周末》新年献词事件一周年,广州当局如临大敌,除抓捕在家聚会的维权人士,以及前往《南周》大楼外参加纪念活动的维权人士外,甚至扣押被抓人士的代理律师。据网友“公民小彪”在推特发出的消息,截至1月6号凌晨零点30分,被警方控制的相关人士已达10多人。
5号,“南方报业集团”门前,警察、便衣密布。据了解,数十名维权人士计划当天在广州南方报业集团大楼外举行纪念活动。
大陆民主人士、高级工程师徐琳告诉《新唐人》,他一抵达《南周》大楼,就被抓了。他表示,当局的极力打压凸显了他们内心的慌乱。
大陆民主人士、高级工程师徐琳:“中国民间追求民主的呼声越来越高,街头活动,包括网路上的声音越来越强盛,他们政权不稳定,越慌张。另外也可能他们自己的内斗,搞的有点神经质。像李东生被抓,周永康也传说被控制,他们内部有点乱,这种乱可能表现在基层工作上,造成一些不理性,最后的猖狂。”
据了解,4号曾参与“南周事件”街头抗议的维权人士肖青山、张圣雨和马胜芬到梁颂基家中聚会,结果4人被警方破门而入带走。
广东耀辉律师事务所执业律师隋牧青:“当局为什么抓他们,肯定就是怕他们到街上去纪念《南周》一周年,这个当然合法,没有任何违法的问题。中国(中共 )的逻辑都是这样,他们维稳历来都是这样,在他们眼里没有法律。”
广东维权律师刘士辉告诉《自由亚洲电台》,5号上午,他在石围塘派出所见到了梁颂基,梁被控“扰乱社会秩序罪”。6号刘士辉前往广州大东派出所,要求了解肖青山、张圣雨等3人的关押地点,结果却被警察扣押。
徐琳:“刘士辉去了解被抓的那些人的情况,他有他们的委托书,代理他们有关的事宜,但是公安局态度很不好,后来也把他扣留了。没有理由,他们根本就不讲道理嘛!”
此外,包括广东民主人士范一平在内的多位维权人士,遭到“被喝茶”的待遇,范一平透露,他已经连续两天“被喝茶”,而且还“被旅游”。
广东民主人士范一平:“不断有人被请去喝茶,而且被明显的警告:6、7、8、9(四天)不得参加《南周》的任何活动。昨天喝完茶以后,给我做了一个决定,7、8、9三天让我去旅游,我非常愤怒,实际上就是对我实行强制性软禁。”
据了解,中共当局对声援“南周事件”人士的打压从来不曾放松,早前因声援“南周事件”被当局起诉的维权人士郭飞雄、刘远东,日前已移交司法。
前《南方周末》评论员、《炎黄春秋》编委笑蜀,日前呼吁各界关注郭飞雄等人。笑蜀表示,郭飞雄去年8月8号在广州遭秘密逮捕,他的家人一个月后才收到通知书。而且,去年12月15号,郭飞雄在律师不知情的情况下遭广州检察院起诉,郭飞雄面临的情况最危险。
更令活动人士不满的是,“南方报业集团”管理层去年11月曾作出一份文件,指控当初的声援民众“妨碍人员和车辆进出”,甚至控诉民众聚集造成部分会议与活动被迫取消。
对此,范一平指出,“南方报业集团”是为了配合公安机关对郭飞雄等人的打压,才出具证明文件。
范一平:“当时门口根本没有人进行围堵,全部都是在两旁的人行道上面,7号那天,小门旁边,有很多人献花,占门口很小的一个地方,这是一个。第二个,《南周》事件的时候,在《南周》门口现场,每天都有成百警察在那边,如果要说堵的话,那警察早就爆过了。”
《南周》社内至少有20名现任或前任员工,公开炮轰报社提出的证词“可耻”,并反驳说,民众当时的声援集会并没有影响工作。
据了解,《南方周末》今年的新年献辞,提早一周上交预先审读,献辞以报社三十而立为主轴,丝毫没有提及去年的献辞之争,也没有涉及当年的新闻制度。这份献辞的最后,回归到中共当局正在宣传的深化改革,有民众质疑,不知是“南方报业”管理层有意配合,或是遭到当局的严控打压。

CCP Suppresses Anniversary of “Southern Week Event”
During the first anniversary of the “Southern Weekend New
Year message event”, the Guangzhou authorities
strengthened its defense. In addition to arresting activists at home and outside the “Southern Weekend” building who participated in the
commemoration, the authorities even detained the lawyers of the activists who
had been arrested.
According to Twitter news by “citizen Xiao Biao”, on Jan. 6, related activists who had been controlled by the police, had reached up to ten people. On Jan. 5, In front of the “Southern Newspaper Group”, there were lots of police, some of whom wore plainclothes.
It is understood, dozens of activists held a commemoration activity outside the building of the “Southern Newspaper Group” that same day.
Xu Lin, a democrat and senior engineer, told “NTDTV”, he was arrested after he arrived at the building of the “Southern Newspaper Group”. Xu said that the authorities tried to suppress, which highlights the state of their inner panic.
Xu Lin : “The population who calls out for democracy now is on the increase in China. Street activities abound, including a more powerful voice on the network, all of these are indications, showing us that the CCP is an unstable regime. The CCP is becoming more desperate by the day. We know Li Dongsheng was arrested & Zhou Yongkang was manipulated. “The interior of the regime seems to be falling in to chaos. Even at the grassroots, people appear irrational.
This could be their final flurry.”
It is understood, Jan. 4, activists who were involved in “Southern Week Event” street protests, including Xiao Qingshan, Zhang Shengyu and Ma Tengfen, held gatherings at Liang Songji’s family. As a result, these four people were taken away by the police, who had broken into their house.
Sui Muqing, the practicing lawyer at Guangdong Yaohui Law Firm: “Why did the authorities grab them? The authorities are afraid they’ll take to the streets to commemorate the ‘South Week’ anniversary. This is certainly legitimate & there should be no problem. It is the CCP’s twisted logic. The maintenance of stability has always been this way. In their eyes, there is no law.”
Liu Shihui, the human rights lawyer, told “Radio Free Asia” that, “in the morning of Jan.5, he saw Liang Songji at the police station in Shiwei Tang.
Liang Songji was charged with the crime, “disturbing social order.”
On Jan. 6, Liu Shihui went to Guangzhou East police station, asking the whereabouts of Xiao Qingshan and Zhang Yu, & where they were being detained.
However, he was later detained himself by the police.
Xu Lin: “Liu Shihui wanted to obtain related information concerning those involved in the case. “He is power of attorney for these people. Yet the attitude of the police is not good. They decided to detain Liu Shihui. There is no reason for it. They have no valid reason to behave this way !”
In addition, a number of activists in Guangdong, including Democrats Fan Yiping, experienced the unusual “being tea” treatment. Fan Yiping revealed, he had two consecutive days with “being tea”, also with “being tourism ?”
Fan Yiping: “I was constantly being invited to have tea with clear warnings, do not participate in any activity of the ‘Southern Weekend’ during Jan. 6 – Jan.9. After drinking tea yesterday, I was required to travel for three days,
from Jan. 7 to Jan.9. I am very angry. In fact, it is a mandatory house arrest they placed me under.”
It is understood, the CCP authorities never relax their grip on suppressing activists who support “Southern Weekend Event”. Guo Feixiong and Liu Yuandong, who were both indicted by the authorities earlier due to “southern Week Event”,
have been transferred to the administration of justice.
Xiaoshu, the former “Southern Weekend” commentator and editorial of “Yanhuang Chunqiu”, has called public attention on Guo Feixiong and other people. Xiaoshu said that, Guo Feixiong was secretly arrested on Aug 8 of last year in Guangzhou. It was not until one month later, his family received the receipt of notice.
On Dec.15 last year, Guo Feixiong was under prosecution at the Guangzhou Procuratorate, without the awareness of his lawyer. Guo Feixiong now faces the most dangerous of situations.
Even more dissatisfied with the activists are the management team of the “Southern Newspaper Group”, who made a document in November last year, alleging that the activists had “impeded personnel and vehicles”. The document also allegedly accuses, that the Group had to cancel meetings and events due to the gatherings of people.
In this regard, Fan Yiping pointed out that the “Southern Newspaper Group”, cooperated with public security to repress Guo Feixiong and issued documents.
Fan Yiping: “At that time, there is no one securing the door. All the activists stood on the sidewalks on both sides. On Dec.7, a lot of people placed flowers at the door, taking up a very small amount of space. Then, during the ‘Southern Weekend Event’, there were hundreds of police at the gate of ‘Southern Weekend’. If there is any blocking, you could say the the police had
reached the limit.”
At least 20 current or former employees in the “Southern Weekend”, blasted publicly, that the proposed testimony of the newspaper is “disgraceful”.
They argued that the gatherings at that time did not affect the work.
It is understood, that the New Year Message of “Southern Weekend” this year, was pre-handed for re-reading a week earlier. The message focused on, ‘the thirty years’ history of the newspaper. It did not mention the message disputes and the news system of last year. In the end, the message returned to deepen the reform, the propaganda of the CCP authorities.
Some people questioned they did not know, whether the management team intended to compete, or were strictly controlled by the authorities.
