【新唐人2011年7月14日訊】涉及金額超過八百億元人民幣的「廈門遠華集團」走私案,涉嫌主犯賴昌星,躲藏在加拿大十二年之後,將面臨被遣送回國的命運。加拿大移民部發言人表示,法庭在7月21號再度開庭審理賴昌星難民申請上訴。如果法庭駁回他的上訴,加拿大方面最快將在7月25號遣返賴昌星。
根據加拿大《環球華報》的消息,加拿大政府經過四年評估後,認為賴昌星被遣返後不會受酷刑對待,上週四拘捕了他,按程序最快11號就可能被遞解出境。但賴昌星的律師緊急上訴,溫哥華法庭11號開庭聽取陳詞後,要求賴昌星在21號向聯邦法院遞交證據,證明回中國後將受迫害,否則依法25號遣送出境。
關於遣返賴昌星回國的消息,很快的在中國的互聯網上被轉載,有位網民編了首歌要賴昌星快回來。
網民們紛紛表示,不能殺賴昌星,只有他回來,才能指證貪官。
林保華(政治評論家):「就是從賴昌星嘴裡,可以拿到很多對江澤民非常不利的東西。因為賴昌星他發跡是在福建,當時福建的省委書記是賈慶林,他是江澤民的人,賈慶林的太太她當時在福建,賈慶林作省委書記,她是作外貿集團的黨委書記,就是管整個福建的外貿。他(賴昌星)要走私的話,照理應該利益衝突,他們居然可以是好朋友,那你想想…。」
賴昌星被中國指控走私及賄賂官員,1999年潛逃加加拿大,他聲稱被遣返中國後會受到酷刑對待,多次申請難民資格但還是被加拿大政府拒絕。
這次,中國和加拿大對遣送賴昌星回國達成協議,北京曾經答應引渡賴昌星,絕不會判他死刑。對此,時事評論家伍凡表示,加拿大不希望成為一個包庇犯罪份子的天堂,所以他們要把賴昌星送回去。但中共在十八大之前翻出這1、20年的老案,尤其是在江澤民病危消息流傳的這個敏感時刻,中共這個舉動引人遐想。
伍凡(時事評論家):「現在他回去,是要他的口供要他的一些犯罪記錄,來挖另外一批人,挖現在中共的官員們,來挖自己人出來,那麼來打擊江澤民手下的一批人,還是不聽胡錦濤的那批人,實際上,結果會不會影響十八大呢?就要看這些人是甚麼料,會不會進十八大,這不清楚,但是呢,可以肯定講,他把這個拿賴昌星回去當作砲彈。」
由於賴昌星跟國內人脈關係複雜,如果賴昌星真的被遣返中國,外界認為,有可能會影響中國2012年11月舉行的中共十八大人事佈局,甚至連明年香港特首選舉形勢也可能發生變化。

Repatriation of Lai Changxing
After hiding in Canada for 12 years, Lai Changxing,
the main suspect of Yuanhua Group Case involved with
RMB 80 billion, may be deported to China.
Canadian authorities said that the court would decide on Lai』s
refugee appeal on July 21. If the court rejects it again,
he will be sent back the on July 25 the earliest.
According to Canada's "Global Chinese Press”,
after 4 years of assessment, the Canadian authorities believe
that Lai will not be tortured after returning to China.
He was arrested on July 7. According to the procedures,
he could be deported on July 11 the earliest.
Lai's lawyer appealed immediately to the court in Vancouver.
The Federal Court asked Lai to submit evidence on July 21
that he would be tortured after returning to China.
Otherwise, he will be deported on July 25 according to the law.
News of Lai』s repatriation soon spread online.
A netizen even composed a song asking Lai to come back soon.
Netizens said that Lai should not be killed,
because only he could testify against corrupt officials.
Lin Baohua (political commentator): People can obtain from Lai a lot of things against Jiang Zemin.
Lai made his fortune in Fujian, when the Fujian provincial party secretary was Jia Qinglin.
Jia was part of Jiang』s clique. Jia』s wife was the party secretary for Fujian Foreign Trade Group.
Lai, a smuggler, was a good friend of hers. You think about this…
The Chinese authorities accused Lai of smuggling and bribery.
Lai fled to Canada in 1999. The Canadian government
rejected his repeated applications for refugee status even after
he claimed that he would be tortured if repatriated to China.
This time, China and Canada have reached an agreement
on Lai』s repatriation.
China has promised that Lai would not be sentenced to death.
Current Issues Commentator Wu Fan believes that
Canada does not want to be a paradise for criminals.
But one cannot help wondering about CCP』s move at this time
toward a decade-long case when Jiang was very ill
and before the CCP』s 18th National Congress.
Wu Fan: "Now he is wanted by the CCP for his testimony
against Jiang』s people, who refuse to obey Hu Jintao.
In reality, will this affect the CCP』s 18th National Congress?
That depends on who are these people, and
whether or not they will participate in the congress.
Nothing is clear yet, but one thing is for sure,
Lai will be used as a bombshell.”
Due to the complexity of Lai』s connections in China,
the outside world thinks that if he is repatriated to China,
it may cause major personnel changes at the 18th Congress
in Nov. 2012 and even the Chief Executive election
in Hong Kong next year.
