【新唐人2014年09月27日讯】中国维族学者伊力哈木，日前被中共当局以分裂国家罪，判处无期徒刑。随后，中共党媒发表庭审纪实，报导伊力哈木在乌鲁木齐法院受审的情况。25号，伊力哈木的辩护律师指出，这份庭审纪实存在很多不实和隐瞒，而且，法院在伊力哈木上诉期间，允许媒体曝光案卷证据，这是严重违法。
《新华网》24号发表文章，题为《伊力哈木•土赫提分裂国家案庭审纪实》，列出了所谓伊力哈木的五大犯罪活动。
文章还说，公诉机关证明，乌鲁木齐市司法机关对此案具有管辖权，侦查、起诉、审判活动合法，并当庭出示证人证词、课堂讲课视频、电子证物勘验报告，以及被告人供述等32组210多份证据。
25号，伊力哈木的辩护律师刘晓原在推特上表示，视频竟然还把一些案卷证据材料，包括讲课视频给曝光了。为此，他致电乌鲁木齐市中院刑一庭帕副庭长，并严肃指出，允许媒体曝光案卷证据属于严重违法，因为判决没有生效，伊力哈木已提起上诉。
广东维权律师隋牧青：“它虽然是个官媒，其实它这种发布并不合适，因为在这个庭审定罪还没有（的情况下），它有为法庭这种判决背书的意味。一般来说，这在一个正常的法治国家是不允许的。”
刘晓原还在微博上指出，这个纪实是一个选择性报导，侧重公诉人指控伊力哈木的证据，没有写到审判员多次打断被告人发言，没有写证人不出庭作证等等。他说：“在两天的庭审中，有三架摄像机全程拍摄，能否请法院公开全部录像呢？”
另一位辩护律师李方平，也在微信中指出，这个所谓纪实有多处窜改，尤其所谓鼓吹暴力那部分。
辩护律师李方平：“我觉得还是一面之词，不能完整的真实反映纪实的全貌，我觉得，如果需要的话，可以公开嘛，文字、记录，他们可以全文公开，这样还能相对客观一点。”
据了解，伊力哈木已签署长达15页的上诉状，并委托李方平提出上诉。李方平还对外发表了伊力哈木在被判无期徒刑后的感言。伊力哈木说：“我是为我们的民族呐喊，更是为中国未来呐喊。看到判决书的内容，我反而认为自己应该肩负更大的责任。”
伊力哈木还透露，他一直担心自己承受不了严酷的环境，担心自己会出卖良心、事业、朋友和家人。但是，他挺过去了。
在感言中，他仍对未来表示乐观，他说：“我依然期待阳光、期待未来。我坚信中国会更好、维吾尔人的宪法权利必将得到尊重。”
广东维权律师隋牧青：“就我们所了解的伊力哈木，是新疆的人士当中非常温和的，他并没有主张分裂。据李方平律师讲，评审当中，要求公诉人举出，你说有鼓动分裂，煽动分裂等等，有没有证据啊？这个公诉人说，他是表面上假装不主张分裂，但实际上他是主张分裂。这个根本不是法律，法律是以行为来认定，现在你揣测人家，就给人家定罪，这个完全是欲加之罪。”
纽约大学法学院著名法学教授孔杰荣(Jerome Cohen) 24号表示，当他听说，伊力哈木被中共当局以“分裂国家罪”判处无期徒刑时，他的反应是，当局这种做法“很不光彩，骇人听闻！”
长期关注中国人权的美国民主党参议员布朗，对《美国之音》表示，伊力哈木没有煽动分裂，他是在推动人权。中共当局对伊力哈木的判决，不利于美中关系。
世界维吾尔大会主席热比娅女士，25号接受《美国之音》专访时指出，如果中共当局继续折磨、滥杀维吾尔人，维吾尔人可能被迫以苏格兰方式，寻求民族自决。

Broadcast of Ilham Tohti Court Record Breaks Law
Chinese Uyghur scholar Ilham Tohti was sentenced by the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to life in prison for separatism.
Then, the CCP media published articles revealing
the so-called court record of Tohti’s trial in Urumqi.
On Sept. 25, Tohti’s lawyer announced that the “court record"
deviates from or hides the facts in many details.
Also, the court had seriously violated the law as it allowed media
to publicly report evidence when Tohti still intends to appeal.
The Xinhua News Agency published an article on Sept 24,
entitled “Court Record of Ilham Tohti’s Separatism Case".
The article lists “five major crimes" of Tohti.
It said, prosecution organs verify that Urumqi’s judiciary
has the authority in handling Tohti’s case,
and claimed that the investigation, prosecution and trial
had followed legal procedures.
According to Xinhua, 32 groups of over 210 pieces of evidence
were exhibited in the court trial,
including testimonies, video footage of Tohti’s class,
examination reports of electronic evidence
and statements of the accused.
On Sept. 25, Tohti’s lawyer Liu Xiaoyuan said on twitter that
Xinhua had even issued video footage of evidence from the trial,
including videotapes of Tohti’s class.
Liu said he had protested to the deputy chief judge
that Xinhua’s report had seriously violated law as the sentence
has yet to take effect and Tohti still intends to appeal.
Sui Muqing, Guangdong rights lawyer:
“Although Xinhua is the CCP’s official news agency,
it is still improper for it to report those details.
When a sentence has not taken effect,
doing that is equivalent to voicing support for the sentence.
Normally this is not allowed in a state ruled by the law."
On twitter, Liu Xiaoyuan also said Xinhua’s report is clearly selective,
as it focused on reporting evidence against Tohti,
but never mentioned how the judge interrupted Tohti’s statements
several times, or the fact that some witnesses did not appear in court.
Liu said, “Three cameras had recorded the whole process of the trial",
“Would the court please broadcast all videos to the public?"
Li Fangping, another of Tohti’s lawyers, also said in WeChat that
Xinhua’s so-called “court record" had manipulated many facts,
especially those about espousing violence.
Li Fangping:"I think the report is a one-sided story and
cannot comprehensively reflect the trial process.
If necessary, they can make all written or video records
open to the public.
At least this is better than what they did right now."
Sources said Tohti had entrusted Li Fangping to appeal with
a signed 15-page petition for documentation.
Li also revealed Tohti’s words after being sentenced to life in prison.
Tohti said “I am voicing for my ethnic group, and for China’s future.
I felt I should take more responsibility when I learned the sentence."
According to Tohti, he had worried that he might betray his conscience,
career, friends and family after being put into a severe environment,
but he had survived that.
Tohti still shows his optimism, saying
“I am still looking forward to sunshine and a bright future,
I believe that China will be better and Uygur rights will be respected."
Sui Fuqing:"To my knowledge, Tohti is very moderate
among Xinjiang people. He never stands for separatism.
Li Fangping said he had demanded evidence during the trial
showing Tohti had advocated separatism.
The prosecutor replied that Tohti pretended to oppose separatism
but he indeed supported it. This is not law.
Law judges human behavior according to their acts.
But this sentence is made simply based on conjectures.
They are purely making excuses just to convict Tohti."
Jerome Cohen, a famous professor of law at New York University,
commented on the issue on Sept. 24.
Cohen said, when he heard that Tohti was sentenced by the CCP
to life in prison on separatism charges,
what came to his mind was that the CCP had done something
“very disgraceful and horrifying".
US Senator Sherrod Brown has paid long-term attention
to the CCP’s human rights issues. Brown told VOA that
Tohti was not a separatist and what he did was to boost human rights.
The CCP’s sentence on Tohti has negative impacts on its relation with US.
Ms. Rebiya, President of the World Uyghur Congress,
was interviewed by VOA on Sept. 25.
Rebiya said, if the CCP continues its torture and killing
of innocent Uyghur people, they may be forced to seek autonomy
like what Scottish people had done.
