【新唐人2014年04月26日訊】中共中央第五巡視組進駐天津期間，「北方信託」原董事長劉惠文19號自殺身亡。21號，「天津私募基金詐騙案」受害者近3千人，聚集天津信訪局，反映「私募災情」，遭警方鎮壓。有評論分析，劉惠文自殺，可能和中共國務院副總理張高麗有關。而張高麗擔任天津市委書記期間，曾號召大陸民眾甚至海外投資客到天津去投資，現在眾多私募基金被打入非法集資並查封，投資者數百上千億資金拿不回來，受害人認為，張高麗應負全部責任。

中央第五巡視組從3月28號起，在天津市展開兩個月的巡視工作。近3千名來自中國各地的「天津私募基金詐騙案」受害者，21號一大早來到天津信訪局。而警方將人強行拉上大巴，有人被非法拘禁。

據上訪民眾表示，中央巡視組入駐天津，但電話打不進去，當局沒有人真正解決民眾的問題。

天津私募詐騙案受害者白女士: 「這三千人，鎮壓了，打傷了，而且又把好多人，大巴拉走。我們是集資，它給打成了非法集資，其實是政府參與，我們這案子，我們上訪了五年多，我們的問題報到天津市，他們也回覆收到了，但是問題就是不解決，天津市拖著，現在我們就是懷疑有更大的背景，怕牽扯到他們，所以這個案子只能壓著。」

現任中共中央政治局常委張高麗，從2007年3月到2012年年底，擔任天津市委書記。5年裡，天津當局出臺系列的財稅優惠政策，大力推廣私募基金。市、區兩級領導也積極配合廣招。據天津工商局的資料顯示，截至2011年底，登記註冊的私募股權基金公司爆增到2396戶，註冊資本達4409多億元。

天津私募詐騙案受害者張女士:「我們這個案子是跟區政府合作的，但是後來根本不是那麼回事，錢去哪了，現在就是疑問，找他的財產甚麼的，然後都說沒有，咱們找吧，找了那麼多年了，但是到現在還在踢皮球，他們當中是不是有甚麼暗箱操作?」

2010年年底到2011年10月期間，天津各級政府要求廣大投資人響應「先行先試、借用管還」等號召，到天津去投資。在政府信用的擔保之下，投資者義無反顧的投入了私募致富的美夢中。

而當天津眾多私募基金被打入非法集資並查封之後，各地受害者不斷向天津市政府上訪請願，要求天津市政府給出解釋。

天津人大代表獨立參選人王中祥:「它給這個事件定性為非法集資，讓很多的受害者非常的不滿，因為非法集資意謂著你本身的投資就是非法的，所以你的資產得不到合法的保障。明明是政府在正面鼓動，推動的這個事情，這麼嚴重的性質的問題，你政府不承擔責任，實在說不過去，張高麗就應該承擔政治和法律責任。」

截至目前，天津私募公司已經被查封數十家，其中涉及的金額高達數百億甚至更多，受害人數十萬，是中國最大的私募金融詐騙案之一。

有報導說，張高麗爲「十八大入常」，打造政績，因此天津私募醜聞遭到封鎖，官媒更是集體失聲。去年新年，大批受害人在市政府抗議，高喊「張高麗還錢」。

天津私募詐騙案受害者曾女士:「這個錢都是借親朋好友的，投的錢，傾其所有吧，兒子因為這個錢投進去，結不了婚，房子賣了，錢投進去，想賺點錢，改善一下生活，結果一進去，連房子都沒了，倆口離婚的，家破人亡，買房買不起的，也有死的。」

此外，張高麗主政天津時期還大搞地産投資。今年1月初，天津地方債審計顯示，天津政府直接負債達2246億元，是去年全年財政收入2078億元的1.28倍。今年2月，國務院副總理汪洋在主持國務院部委主要負責人會議上說，「天津市已欠下五萬多億債務，實際上已經破産，今天要追究也晚了。」

Tianjin Private Fund Scam Exposes the Black Curtain of Zhang Gaoli

During the period of the Fifth Inspection Team of

the Central Committee

of the Chinese Communist Party(CCP)

visiting Tianjin, the Ex-Chairman of the Board of

“Northern Trust" Liu Huiwen killed himself on April 19th.

Then on April 21st, 3,000 victims of the

“Tianjin Private Fund Scam" gathered

at Tianjin Municipal Bureau for Letters and Appeals,

appealing against “the disaster of private fund"

and have been oppressed by the police.

The comments suggested that the suicide

of Liu Huiwen might be related to Zhang Gaoli,

the Deputy Premier of CCP’s State Council.

When Zhang Gaoli took the position

of the CCP Head of Tianjin City,

he at once called for mainland people

and even overseas investors to invest in Tianjin.

At present, a lot of Private Funds were punished

as illegal raising of money and sealed up.

The investors cannot get back the

100 billion RMB. The victims thought,

Zhang Gaoli must be fully responsible for the case.

From March 28th, the CCP’s Fifth Inspection Team

started a two month’s inspection mission in Tianjin.

Nearly three thousand victims across China

of the “Tianjin Private Fund Scam Case" gathered

at Tianjin Municipal Bureau of Letters and Appeals.

The police forced them to get on a bus

and some of the appealers were illegally detained.

According to the appealers, when the Inspection Team

came to Tianjin, the reporting telephone

could not be connected. There was no one

from the Authorities to really solve

the concerns of these people.

Ms Bai is a victim of the scam case and she says:

“Some 3,000 victims were oppressed and beaten with injuries.

Many of them were forced to get on a bus and taken away.

We provided the money for the private fund,

but we were framed with a crime called ‘illegal collecting of funds’.

As a matter of fact, the government was involved in the case.

We have appealed the case for five years

and reported to the Tianjin Municipal Government,

and we also received replies.

But the problem is still not yet solved and is deferred.

So now we have no doubt there must be a stronger

and higher level backstage supporter behind,

who might be involved

and hence causes the postponing of the case."

The current Member of the Standing Committee

of the CCP Politburo, Zhang Gaoli had taken the position

of the CCP Head of Tianjin City from March of 2007

to the end of 2012.

During that five years, the Tianjin Government issued

a series of concessional policies on finance and tax

for largely promoting private funds.

The officials of both Municipal and District levels actively

pushed the private fund and raising money.

According to the information of Tianjin Municipal Bureau

of Industry and Commerce Administration,

by the end of 2011, the registered private equity fund

companies dramatically soared to 2396 companies

with registered capital of 440.9 billion RMB.

Scam victim Ms Zhang: “Our case is connected with

a District Government,…But later it is not that thing.

Where is the money? This is the question.

We tried to find its assets, but we were told there are no assets.

Let us try to find it. We have looked

for it so many years. But we were treated like a ball

to be kicked from this department to another.

So is there any inside blackbox manipulation?"

From the end of 2010 to the October of 2011,

all levels of Tianjin Governments called

for all investors to invest in Tianjin

by responding to the policy “Pilot and trial raising funds

and ensuring the return of the raised funds".

Guaranteed by the credit of governments,

investors without hesitation gathered here

for the dream of becoming rich by investing in private equity.

But when a large number of private equity funds in Tianjin

were declared as “illegally raising funds" and seized,

the victims across China persistently appealed to Tianjin

Municipal Government and asked for answers.

Mr Wang Zhongxiang was once an independent candidate

as a representative of the Tianjin People’s Congress.

He says: “such an incident identified

as an illegal raising of money has dissatisfied many victims.

Because illegal raising of money means

the investment itself is illegal,

the assets are not legally protected…

it was definitively promoted and pushed by the government.

If the government don’t take the responsibility

for a problem with such serious assets,

this cannot be explained.

Zhang Gaoli should assume political and legal obligations."

Till now, around several tens of private equity companies

in Tianjin have been seized and sealed up.

Among them, some companies have involved

tens of billion RMB or even more.

The victims reached 100,000 and

it is one of the largest private fund scam cases in China.

It is reported that, in order to

“become a member of the Politburo Standing Committee

of 19th CCP Central Committee"

and produce so-called political achievements,

the scandals of Tianjin private funds have been covered up

and none of the official medias have spoken up on this incident.

Last New Year,

a large number of victims protested

in front of the Municipal Government and

shouted “Return my money, Zhang Gaoli".

Another victim Ms Zeng: “the invested money was collected

from relatives and friends.

I invested all the money I could raise.

My son was unable to get married without money.

I sold a property and invested here to make more money

and improve my standard of living.

But once I put the money in the funds,

then I had no property, was divorced,

and cannot afford another property.

There are even investors dying due to this scam."

In addition, when Zhang Gaoli took power in Tianjin City,

he also widely promoted property development.

At the beginning of January this year,

the direct debt of the Tianjin Government was 224.6 billion RMB.

This is as much as 1.28 of

last year’s financial revenues of 207.8 billion RMB.

In the February of 2014, Wang Yang presided at a conference

with all principal heads of all departments of the State Council

and said the “Tianjin Government owed a debt

of more than 5 trillion RMB and is actually going bankrupt.

If we are going to trace the responsibility, it is too late."
