【新唐人2014年04月09日讯】四川“汉龙集团”董事局主席刘汉“特大涉黑案”，目前正在休庭阶段，日前，大陆媒体对刘汉案“大揭底”，再抛出五名省部级涉案高官。
被视为中共前政法委书记周永康在四川的“马仔”——四川富商刘汉，3月底因“涉黑”受审。
大陆各大媒体日前报导，刘汉、刘维兄弟及其他34人，自1993年以来，无视国家法律，参加黑社会组织，犯案几十起，杀死9人，涉嫌21项罪名，却能横行当地十多年，财富暴增，都是因为有政法官员当靠山，连枪支配件和子弹都由政法机关直接提供。
报导还强调，刘汉案背后的“保护伞”，无论是什么人，有什么样的身份，都将随着案情的进一步审理而公之于众，并受到严厉制裁。
但是在3月31号，刘汉案在湖北咸宁市中级法院开庭审理时，在庭审笔录中，并没有触及刘汉案背后的官员，也没有提及与周永康之子周滨交集的部分。
大陆一些媒体对法庭这种“剥离层层官商网路”之后，再谈刘汉特大涉黑案的做法，表示不满。
4月7号，大陆《财经网》发表评论指出，2012年12月初，四川省委原副书记李春城被“双规”时，刘汉就对自身命运产生了“不祥预感”，开始处置自己的部分资产，4个月后，他被警方控制。
之前，中共官媒《新华社》曾暗示，在四川省内外，很多人都知道刘汉是“有大背景、大靠山”的人物，甚至能够左右当地人事安排。“他结交的官员级别已非普通富豪所能比，为拉拢腐蚀官员，不惜重金铺路”，他的“关系网辐射到成都、乃至北京”。
针对这些问题，《财经》杂志在最新一期的封面故事推出《刘汉朋友圈》，文中披露，刘汉的朋友圈不仅有周永康、李春城、郭永祥、李崇禧，还包括赌场江湖黑道人物，以及5名现任或者退居二线的省部级官员等白道人物。
时政评论员周晓辉指出，与刘汉存在利益交换的这五名高官，与江系都存在着一定的牵连。
北京时政观察人士华颇分析，抛出这5名高官，体现了中共内部的斗争激烈，一派人希望把周永康案尽快抛出，以安定人心。
北京时政观察人士华颇：“从现在来讲，周永康的案件办理的并不顺利，因为他涉及的人员众多，案件也非常的复杂，而且薄熙来给这些大老虎们作了一个榜样，开了一个先例，就是在庭上据理力争，俱不认罪，所以恐怕周永康是不是现在俯首帖耳认罪，肯定划一个大大的问号。”
自去年12月，周永康被调查的消息广泛传播，直到3月2号，中共政协新闻发言人吕新华以一句“你懂的”，点破周永康被调查的迷局。
3月3号，中共政协常委葛剑雄公开对香港媒体表示，前常委中，“有一个或者不只一个”出事，但中央还没公开，他不能说。
大陆各大媒体也曾经发表“中纪委打虎路线图”一文。舆论认为，这一动作是中共高层为了进一步处理周永康，以至江泽民的一种舆论铺垫。
7号，《美国之音》报导说，周永康案再起波澜，他的家人接连对外发声，替他“鸣冤”，周永康俱不认罪，导致中共“欲办铁案，却欠东风”的局面。
有分析认为，目前“刘汉涉黑案”牵出的人越来越多，并且多与江系有瓜葛，可以视作是习近平在快速清剿江系周永康人马的同时，将目标指向江系“更大的老虎”，而且已经到了收网阶段。
前美国乔治梅森大学客座教授章天亮：“现在刘汉他的案件涉及的人数更多，范围更广，而且时间更长，社会影响也更恶劣，所以从这个地方来去判周永康，就是除了贪腐之外，加上刑事案件可以把这个案子做得更实一点。”
至于周永康其他方面的案子，包括政变，还有迫害法轮功的反人类罪等，华颇认为，中共肯定不会抛出，因为用这些罪名审判周永康，等于审判中共自己。

Probe in Liu Han Case Connects to Five Provincial Officials
The legal case involving the mafia-style gang of Liu Han,
former Chairman of Sichuan Hanlong Group, has adjourned.
Chinese media have recently exposed five provincial
and ministerial level officials involved in Liu’s case.
The Sichuan tycoon Liu Han, an ally of former security
tsar Zhou Yongkang, was put on trial at the end of March.
The case was over allegations of gang activity.
Chinese state media reported that Liu Han,
along with his brother Liu Wei, and 34 other
gang members have committed dozens of crimes.
This includes the murder of 9 people.
Their underworld organization was believed to be supported
by official patrons in the Political and Law Commission.
This directly supplied them with arms and bullets.
The report also stressed that whomever constituted
the protective umbrella for these crimes will be brought
into the open, and will be subject to strict sanctions.
In the March 31 court hearing, none of the
officials behind the case were mentioned.
Also ommitted was information about Liu’s business
connections with Zhou Bin, son of Zhou Yongkang.
Some media criticized how the court has
dealt with these mafia-style gang crimes.
The court avoided the gangs business
and party official connections.
On April 7, Caijin.com reported that when Li Chuncheng,
former Deputy Secretary of Sichuan Provincial Committee,
was detained for interrogation during December 2012,
Liu Han had started to redistribute part of his assets.
Liu knew something was not right, and four
months later, he was arrested by police.
Previously, Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
state-controlled Xinhua News Agency hinted
that many people knew Liu Han was influential
with his gang background and official connections.
It was suggested that few other tycoons had his influence.
His connection with corrupt officials, through heavy bribery,
ranged from Sichuan to Beijing, and into the central party.
In the cover story of Caijing Magazine,
it detailed Liu Han’s circle of friends.
They included high ranking officials like Zhou Yongkang,
Li Chuncheng, Guo Yongxiang, and Li Chongxi.
They also included underworld figures in the casino
arena, and five provincial and ministerial level officials.
Commentator Zhou Xiaohui highlights the connections
between these five officials and the Jiang Zemin faction.
Beijing political observer Hua Po analyzes that the exposure
of these five officials reflects intense internal struggles.
It indicates a certain faction of the regime
is anxious to deal with Zhou Yongkang.
Hua Po: “It looks like the case of Zhou Yongkang has been
tough to push through, because of it’s scope and complexity.
Bo Xilai’s case has set an example to these “tigers"
that they should deny all charges and plead not guilty.
It is a big question mark if Zhou would
accept charges brought against him"
It was rumoured that Zhou Yongkang
was to be investigated last December.
The Communist Party’s Consultative Conference (CPPCC)
spokesman Lu Xinhua’s commented about this on March 2.
He said, “you understand", and acknowledged
the investigation of Zhou Yongkang.
On March 3, Ge Jianxiong, a member of the Standing
Committee, told Hong Kong media that one or more
former Standing Committee members had been removed.
He would not reveal further information,
because it’s not yet publicized by the regime.
An article about the roadmap to hit the “tiger"
officials was widely published in state media.
It is believed this is laying the foundation for public opinion
in dealing with Zhou Yongkang, and even Jiang Zemin.
On April 7, Voice of America reported Zhou Yongkang
denied all charges, and his relatives outside of
China also protested that Zhou was facing injustice.
The regime seems unable to get the case moving.
Analysts believe that with more people exposed in
Liu Han’s case, mostly in connection with the Jiang
faction, Xi Jinping seems to be closing the net by dealing
with Zhou Yongkang and Jiang Zemin at the same time.
Zhang Tianliang, former visiting Professor at George Mason
University: “Liu Hans’ case has involved more people.
This criminal case will have a wider
implication and social impact, in time.
It could establish more than just corruption
charges in Zhou Yongkang’s case."
This may include Zhou Yongkang’s involvement
in plotting a military coup to overthrow Xi Jinping.
It may also include his involvement in crimes against
humanity during the persecution of Falun Gong.
However, Hua Po does not believe
the regime would dare to touch this.
Bringing these crimes against humanity to justice
would be equivalent to putting the entire CCP on trial.
