The “Vicious Wiki Case”, which was triggered by the leak of information about Xi Jinping‘s Family, is said to be an unjust case concocted by the public prosecutor and the law in Maoming, Guangdong. Today (Feb. 20), the Parents of the young man sentenced to death told reporters that the court of second instance did not want to hold a trial and wanted to dismiss the case in writing. Lawyers have been prevented from meeting with their clients, and the judge is avoiding them.
As a result of the exposure of the personal information of Xi Jinping’s daughter Xi Mingze and her brother-in-law Deng Jiagui on an overseas website, members and technicians of the mainland’s “Vulgar Wiki” website were targeted by the Chinese Communist Party police and 24 young people were sentenced to prison. The mother of Niu Tengyu, a website operator who was designated as the “main culprit” and sentenced to 14 years in prison, told this reporter today that the lawyer representing another young man who was sentenced to a second trial went to meet with his client in Maoming, Guangdong province, but was obstructed and the judge avoided seeing him.
“One of the children’s lawyers went there first, and they made it difficult for him, not allowing him to see the children, and it took an hour of maneuvering to get in. After coming out he went to the judge, said we also have new evidence, that is, let him open a court or something, the judge are not seen, avoiding not seen.”
The mother of Niu Teng Yu revealed that the court of second instance did not want to hold a trial, “I got the news, there still want to dismiss in writing, or do not want to hold a trial, because they are harboring evil intentions, if the trial again, he is afraid of the outside world know.”
“You want to be open and honest, just say that my son is indeed guilty, what are you afraid of not daring to hold a trial?” She questioned.
Niu Tengyu’s mother said that in the first trial, the court just secretly sketchy trial. “The last court session, secretly, even our families do not know. He held the trial secretly, and also did not allow lawyers to defend, the day before the trial, all the lawyers in Maoming concentrated to the Justice Bureau threatened, just do not let them speak. The original plan, for example, three days to finish the trial, a day and a half to finish, why shortened? There is no defense process.”
Xiao Yanrui, founder of the “Vicious Wiki” website and now living in Japan, also disclosed that when Niu Tengyu’s earliest attorneys withdrew from the case, they told their parents that they (21 attorneys) were dragged to the Maoming judicial bureau the day before the first trial began on Nov. 2 last year and were warned not to speak out. Justice bureau officials said the case involved top Communist Party leaders.
“On the day of the trial, there were indeed many lawyers who were also afraid to speak up. Tian Haibo’s lawyer made a plea of not guilty and didn’t bother him at that Time, but now suddenly started to bother him. Because the overseas media has been reporting on the case.” Xiao Yanrui said.
In addition, Niu Tengyu’s lawyer, Huang Hanzhong, was recently interviewed by Beijing‘s Chaoyang District Judicial Bureau, which asked him to withdraw from representing the case and asked him not to give any interviews to the overseas media for the case.
Niu Tengyu’s mother also told our reporter that the parents of Chen Lokan, another young man sentenced in the case, had just hired a lawyer, “and before they could sign a contract, the lawyer was threatened over there.” “It’s just an ordinary citizen’s child, do you need to be scared like this? If you’re not in the wrong, why don’t you let us find a lawyer?”
Niu Tengyu’s mother said her son’s lawyer, Bao Longjun, will soon travel south to Maoming, Guangdong, to ask the court to hear the case, “He is expected to go with two or three children’s lawyers a piece.”
It is reported that Xi’s family’s personal information has been posted on the overseas websites “Red Bank Foundation” and “Chinawiki”. The police in Maoming, Guangdong Province, arrested the people involved in the “Vulgar Wiki” website as scapegoats, and received a commendation from the Ministry of Public Security of the Communist Party of China for this.
A few days ago, the founders of “Vulgar Wiki” and “Chinawiki” spoke out publicly, saying that the exposure of Xi Jinping’s family’s personal information had nothing to do with Niu Tengyu or the other convicted persons. The person who uploaded the information about Xi’s family also previously reached out to the media to testify.
The parents of the 10 young people who were sentenced recently published an open letter in the Rights Defense Network, saying that the 24 young people who were sentenced have become “cannon fodder” and “sacrificial lambs” for the Maoming police to claim credit for; the flawed evidence and reasoning in the Maoming court’s decision, and the shocking The flawed evidence and reasoning in the Maoming court’s decision, as well as the shocking verdict, will be a great shame in the history of Chinese law.
