  • UN Declares Wang Bingzhang To Be Arbitrarily Detained in Violation of International Law

    On July 14, 2003, the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention in Geneva, Switzerland today issued its opinion in arbitrary detention case No 10/2003 (People's Republic of China), regarding the continuing detention of Dr. Wang Bingzhang, and the past detentions of Yue Wu, and Zhang Qi. The so-called "Democracy Three" were kidnapped on the Vietnamese border last June and taken by force into China, where they were subsequently detained by the government. The UN working group found in all three cases that the pro-democracy dissidents were detained arbitrarily by the Chinese government and that the detention violated international law. In the case of Dr. Wang, who was sentenced to life in prison, the UN stated that his prison sentence constituted arbitrary detention. Their cases were brought before the United Nations by the Free China Movement in April, [2003]. (In detail...)

The Truth of Dr. Wang Bingzhang's Abduction

In 2002 Dr. Wang Bingzhang, the democratic revolutionist and founder of the Chinese overseas democratic movement, formulated a blueprint to end the one-party dictatorship of the Chinese Communist Party, and to accomplish reunification of China, and to restore the Republic of China.

In order to perfect the last links of his plan, Dr. Wang set out to Southeast China in June 2002 to meet with some collaborating friends from China. Together with him went Yue Wu, a Chinese labor movement activist in exile in Paris after 1989 June 4 Massacre, and Ms. Zhang Qi, Dr. Wang's fiancee. But before they had a chance to meet with the friends, the trio were kidnapped within the Vietnamese borders by PRC's secret police and affiliated persons disguised as "bandits".

At noontime, June 27, 2002, while having lunch in a restaurant in a Sino-Vietnamese border town, Mong Cai, Dr. Wang and his companions found themselves tailed. They left the restaurant immediately for the hotel to check out. In the hotel lobby ten-some self-proclaimed "plainclothesmen" suddenly surrounded and demanded Dr. Wang's party to leave with them. At first Dr. Wang didn't comply and wrestled with them. Later Dr. Wang and Yue Wu speculated incorrectly that these strangers were probably sent by the Vietnamese government to warn them about their political activities and that the worst case would just be expulsion from Vietnam. Then Dr. Wang changed his mind and agreed to go with them.

The groups of strangers forced them into a white minivan. In 20 minutes the minivan reached a desolate riverbank. Dr. Wang's trio was further forced out the minivan and aboard a small boat to be kidnapped across the river to China.

After an ordeal for more than 10 months, Zhang Qi has returned to the U.S., and Yue Wu to Paris. Zhang Qi witnessed that two of the "bandits" spoke Chinese. Right after the trio were abducted to China, Yue Wu at first noted that the "bandits" were comparing Dr. Wang in person with his photo taken several years ago in black sweater. The fact that the "bandits" had a photo of his before hand meant a premeditated and organized kidnapping scheme against Dr. Wang. A leading "bandit" even waved Dr. Wang's photo to show off his leadership position and asked Ms. Zhang Qi, "Isn't it him? Isn't it him?" The "Vietnamese" " bandits" at one point demanded a ransom of $10 million and the phone numbers of their relatives. But they never contacted any of the relatives.

Then another ten-some Chinese came by. A leading figure walked close to Dr. Wang to identify him. Another person behind the first one was filming with a video camera all the way. After completing the identification work, the leading figure ordered the rest to "follow the rules and take them away". The Chinese crew blindfolded the trio, and led away separately in several air-conditioned high-end sedans with quality engines to Guangxi Golden Coast Grand Hotel. Afterwards the trio were kept apart till the end.

Through several rounds of transfer for six days, the trio were finally sent to a deserted temple on July 3 in Fangchen Harbor City, Guangxi Province, even after staying at two hotels earlier, to be "rescued", but in essence arrested by PRC police in quite a show with flash light of many video cameras. The police department said they had received a crime report and gone to "rescue" the kidnap victims. Up to date, neither PRC nor Vietnam has revealed any details or any investigation about the "Vietnamese" " bandits". To them it's a job well done, no need to divulge any information of their terror operation.

After secret detainment for nearly half a year without due process, even according to the standard of PRC legal codes, PRC's Ministry of Public Security for the first time admitted that they arrested Dr. Wang in December, 2002. Previously, PRC's spokeperson had been denying Dr. Wang's arrest.

In February, 2003, the Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court, sentenced Dr. Wang to life imprisonment for crimes made up by PRC's secret police and Dr. Wang never committed. His appeal to the Shenzhen Superior People's Court was rejected.

Dr. Wang did not cross the Sino-Vietnamese border illegally, and instead he was kidnapped in a terror scheme plotted by PRC's secret police. PRC has despicably treaded his human rights. Hereby we call upon the world leaders who have been serious with the plight of Chinese dissidents and activists to speak up loudly to win his freedom, not by just words, but by genuine concerns and deeds.

Wang Bingzhang's Revolutionary Goal

In decades of recent years, you have worked so hard for Chinese democracy and freedom without worrying about your own life at risk. In fact, as I can see, your physical life is so simple. Then, what is on earth your revolutionary ideal?

My revolutionary ideal can be summarized in a few words, i.e., "to terminate Marxism and Leninism so as to follow Dr. Sun Yat-Sen's doctrine of democracy , and to terminate the dictatorship of Chinese Communist Party so as to reestablish a true republic in China."

When depriving people like Wang Bingzhang of their passports, the rogue regime refuses to acknowledge their citizenship. However, it claims that they are Chinese citizens while abducting them from foreign countries, and persecuting and imprisoning them in China.
Lin Baohua  That the communist regime gave the severest punishment ever made to Wang Bingzhang is not a severe punishment to an single individual. It is in defiance of entire Chinese pro-democracy movement.
Cao Changqing  He lost his freedom for all Chinese...To restore the freedom to Wang Bingzhang, Yang Jianli, Liu Di and all detained Chinese, let's stand out and cry out loudly to have the whole world hear our voice. It is not only for them, it is also for our own freedom and conscience!
Gu Yuan  Being a senior Chinese dissident overseas, Wang Bingzhang is now the most important hostage. The rogue regime is about to take advantage of him to make bargain with democratic countries.
