【禁聞】黃琦病情加重 出獄後維權信念未變

【新唐人2011年6月13日訊】四川《天網》創辦人黃琦目前已經出獄回到家中。過去三年裡，黃琦因為在獄中得不到治療，身患了多種疾病，但他表示，為弱勢群體維權的信念從來沒有改變。他計劃儘快恢復《天網》的工作。

四川知名維權人士黃琦於6月10號結束三年的刑期回到家中。據《德國之聲》報導，在黃琦出獄之前，獄方把他所有的私人物品全部沒收，一共有五本記事本，另外還包括上訴材料以及貼身衣物等。

黃琦對《德國之聲》表示，他的記者本記載了對民間維權的許多反思，以及未來的想法。黃琦反問獄警，「是不是你們擔心這些物品進入中國人民反法西斯紀念館裡去？」

2008年6月，黃琦因為參與調查四川5.12地震中的「豆腐渣工程」，被中共當局以「非法持有國家機密罪」判刑三年。

據黃琦介紹，目前他的身體狀況很差，因為在獄中得不到治療。2000年時黃琦就被重判過五年，五年的牢獄生活中，有三年他被迫睡在冰冷的水泥地上，所以患上風濕性心臟病，再加上警方曾在獄中對他施暴，致使他頭部受到重傷，形成了腦積水和腦萎縮。而這一次入獄的的三年間，他被強迫中斷治療，而且獄方不允許家人送藥，導致黃琦的多種疾病加劇。

黃琦：「比以前差多了，上一次坐牢留下的腦積水，腦萎縮和心臟病現在有加劇的趨勢。」

《天網》的義工蒲飛也表示，黃琦入獄的三年時間裏，有大約二、三十名義工被迫害，有被判刑的，還有被拘留，勞教的。不過黃琦接受《自由亞洲廣播電臺》採訪時說， 他們還是不會放棄為弱勢群體維權。

黃琦：「我從跟大家的談話中感覺到大家的信心並沒有垮，而且我相信我們很快會開展工作的，我們的宗旨還是與無權，無勢，無名的弱者同行，我們永遠不會逃脫自己對受難民眾的責任。」

中國《權利運動》組織的負責人胡軍則對《德國之聲》說，他認為近幾日中國各地爆發了多起暴力公共事件，中共當局如果對維權人士繼續採取殘酷鎮壓手段，只會激起底層民眾的抗爭﹔胡軍表示，黃琦從監獄中走出來說了一句話「不會逃避對弱者的責任」，這就表明，「維權者不會因為當局的監獄而放棄信念」。

黃琦99年成立《天網》網站，為「六四死難者」以及弱勢群體維權。 2000年6月3號，中共當局以「煽動顛覆國家政權罪」，判處他五年監禁。2008年6月，他因為揭發四川地震豆腐渣工程再次被捕，判刑 3年。黃琦曾經獲得國際人權組織授予的多個獎項，包括「第二屆網際網路自由獎」、「第六屆中國人權青年獎」等。

Activist Released, Determination Unchanged

Sichuan』s Tianwang Human Rights Center』 founder,

Huang Qi was released from prison.

Due to lack of medical treatment in the past 3 years,

Huang was suffering from illnesses in prison.

However, his determination to work for the rights

of vulnerable groups has never changed.

He plans to resume his work at Tianwang』s ASAP.

Renowned rights activist Huang Qi returned home

on June 10, at the end of his 3-year prison term.

As per Deutsche Welle (DW), before his release,

the prison confiscated all his personal belongings,

including 5 notebooks, legal documents and clothes.

Huang told DW that he documented ideas and

reflections of rights protection in his notebooks.

He asked the prison guards, "Aren』t you afraid that

these items will go to peoples』 antifascist museum?”

For investigating collapsed in Sichuan』s earthquake

jerry-built buildings, he was jailed in June 2008,

for "illegal possession of state secrets."

Huang said his current health condition is poor,

as he couldn』t receive medical treatment in prison.

Back in 2000 he was sentenced to 5 years in prison.

For 3 years he had to sleep on a cold cement floor.

As a result he developed a rheumatic heart disease.

Abused by the guards, he had severe head injuries,

which led to hydrocephalus and brain atrophy.

Recently his treatment was interrupted,

authorities denied him medicine sent by his family.

As a result, Huang』s many illnesses aggravated.

Huang Qi said for Radio Free Asia (RFA):

“(My health) is now worse than before.

The hydrocephalus, brain atrophy and heart disease

from the jail term are all aggravating.”

Tianwang』s volunteer Pu Fei said, in these 3 years,

20 or 30 volunteers were sentenced or detained.

Huang told RFA that they will not stop

protecting vulnerable groups』 rights.

Huang: “From speaking with my staff,

I feel that everyone』s confidence has not changed.

I believe we will soon be back to work.

Our purpose is still to be with vulnerable groups.

We will never shun our responsibility to them.”

Hu Jun, head of China's Rights Movement, spoke

to DW about the recent violence across China.

He said, if the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)

continues its brutal repression of activists,

it could only incite more grassroots resistance.

Hu said, as Huang would “not shun responsibility

to the vulnerable," "activists will not give up faith,

despite their imprisonments.”

In 1999, Huang founded 64tianwang.com

for Tiananmen victims and vulnerable groups.

On June 3, 2000, he was sentenced to 5 years jail

by CCP for "inciting subversion of state power.".

In June 2008, he was sentenced to 3 years prison,

for investigating collapsed buildings in the quake.

He received many human rights awards, including

Reporters Without Borders』 『Cyber-Freedom Prize』

and 』China Youth Human Rights Award』
