On March 2 and 3, 2021, the “Vulgar Wiki” case, which was triggered by the leak of Xi Minze’s personal information, attracted much attention. Niu Tengyu (small picture), who was accused of being the main offender and sentenced to 14 years in prison, had his lawyers, including Bao Longjun and Wang Yu, rush to the Guangdong Maoming court to submit formalities and request access to the file.

Niu Tengyu, the main culprit in the “Vulgar Wiki” case who insists he was framed by the police, told his lawyer that he was abused by public security officials, including being stripped naked, photographed and humiliated, and having his private parts burned. In addition, a group of overseas people concerned about the incident signed a letter to Xi Jinping‘s daughter Xi Mingze, hoping that she, as a victim of personal information leakage, should defend her rights through the law, rather than relying on police power to fabricate an unjust case.
The “Vulgar Wiki” case has entered the appeal process, and the main offender, Niu Tengyu’s defense lawyer Bao Longjun, traveled south to Guangdong’s Maoming on Tuesday (March 2) to meet with him again at the detention center.
During the meeting, Niu disclosed further details of his torture. Bao Longjun relayed Niu Tengyu’s horrific experience to the station on Thursday (March 4). He said the police used a lighter to burn Niu Tengyu’s private parts and injected him with saline. During the period, nine nude photos were taken and posted in a photo album called “vulgar Niu Teng Yu”.
The company said: Teng Yu, he was in prison in Foshan, especially in late 2019, early January 2020 a few days, he was hung up by a Chen naked insult, but also took a lighter to burn his private parts, but also playfully took him nine photos, meaning “vulgar cattle Teng Yu”, take this to insult cattle Teng Yu. The Chen said he was in his 30s and had a daughter, I think he also has children, you make a child (Niu Tengyu), is very bad behavior.
Bao Longjun submitted his representation to the Guangdong Maoming Intermediate Court on Tuesday and Wednesday (March 2 and 3) for two consecutive days, and requested to read the file. But the second trial judge Zhang Shuming still did not show up, and the court only provided more than 40 volumes of the total 79 volumes of the Niu Tengyu case. Bao Longjun said they will continue to request access to all the case files and believe they can find more details, including the names of those who tortured Niu Tengyu, and will sue the relevant departments or individuals for their illegal actions.
Niu Tengyu’s mother denounced the police as inhumane, and she fainted after learning details of her son’s torture.
The mother of Niu Teng Yu said: I fainted at once when I saw this, I originally knew only hanged Teng Yu, I would never have dreamed that he would be so insulting to our Teng Yu, they actually do such nasty, rogue things to a 20-year-old child, I thought at that Time, this must be a case of injustice! Why else would they torture a child so much? If the allegations were true, would it need to torture him so much and take him to a small dark room? That’s a shame.
In addition, the “Overseas Youth Concerned about 24 Victims of Injustice” sent a joint letter to Xi Jinping’s daughter Xi Mingze on Thursday, asking if Xi had any knowledge of the “vulgar Wiki” case that resulted from the leak of her personal information.
The letter said they had learned that police had tortured 24 of the accused youths throughout the case and had induced and threatened witnesses to testify falsely, so they continued to track the truth of the case.
They also expressed in the letter that they believe Xi Mingze, who is highly educated and civilized, will also be filled with righteous indignation when he learns the truth. They called on Xi Mingze, as a victim of personal information leakage, to use the law to defend his rights; not to resort to police power to solve the problem. I hope Xi Mingze and his father Xi Jinping will learn the truth of the case and bring justice to the 24 convicted persons.
One of the co-signers, Australian student Wu Le Bao, told the station that he hoped Xi Mingze would read the letter and speak up for the 24 victims from his conscience and legal facts.
These young people were persecuted, tortured and sentenced because of Xi Mingze’s privacy leak, Wu Le Bao said. It is possible for Xi Mingze to read this letter, and I hope she will stand up for the persecution these young people have suffered from her conscience, from the facts, and from the law. As the daughter of the highest leader, Xi Mingze can go through the normal legal procedures when her rights are violated.
Mr. L, the overseas editor-in-chief of Chinawiki, who has publicly admitted responsibility for the leak of Xi’s personal information, also said that whether Xi Mingze could see the open letter or not, it had at least served the purpose of revealing to the outside world once again the extreme injustice of the case.
Mr. L said: This open letter is very right, Maoming police did not catch any “main criminals”, they only caught those who are completely unrelated to the “vulgar wiki”, taking these unrelated people to take the blame, showing their incompetence in handling the case. I think this letter is not for Xi Mingze himself to see, but to analyze this matter to show that this procedure is extremely unjust from any angle and in any way.
In May 2019, after an overseas website exposed the personal information of Xi Jinping’s daughter Xi Mingze and brother-in-law Deng Jiagui, the Guangdong Maoming Internet Police, one of the units handling the case, arrested and prosecuted 24 members of the “Vulgar Wiki” in mainland China. Among them was 20-year-old Niu Tengyu, who was charged with being the main culprit and sentenced to 14 years and a fine of 130,000 yuan.
