After the successful flight of Chinese rights lawyer Chen Guangcheng, Chinese authorities have begun aggressively arresting the relatives and activists who helped him make good his escape.

On April 27, human rights activist Hu Jia told foreign media that he saw Chen Guangcheng in Beijing; his wife posted photos of the meeting on Twitter.

Chen is now understood to be in the custody of U.S. officials. Assistant Secretary of State Kurk Campbell arrived in Beijing on Sunday, apparently to begin discussions with Communist Party counterparts.

After Chen escaped from his house arrest, a large police presence appeared in Chen’s hometown of Donggushi Village in Shandong Province, according to Twitter postings by China Human Rights Defenders, a nonprofit organization that researches and advocates for human rights in China.

Many of Chen’s relatives were taken away by police, including Chen’s older brother, cousin, and cousin’s sons. Chen’s nephew Chen Kegui is now on the run, after defending himself with kitchen knives against the intrusion of unidentified people to his home on the night of April 26.

“What I fear most now is that Chen Guangcheng’s relatives might be tortured and lose their lives,” Teng Biao, a well-known human rights lawyer, wrote on Twitter.

Chen’s non family supporters have already come under hard pressure.

On the afternoon of April 28, Hu Jia was taken away by Beijing police and interrogated for more than 11 hours, according to Twitter postings by Teng Biao and Hu’s wife Zeng Jinyan.

Domestic security forces, part of whose job it is to monitor and punish dissidents, borrowed the police station to interrogate him, Teng Biao said.

Hu Jia was freed from prison mid-2011 following a three-and-a-half-year sentence for “inciting subversion of state sovereignty.” He is still under one year of “deprivation of political rights,” banning him from speaking to the media or engaging in political activities. Hu Jia’s wife wrote online that she has almost become accustomed to the interrogations by domestic security police.



He Peirong, an activist who helped Chen Guangcheng escape, was arrested at her home in Nanjing, according to Bob Fu, president of ChinaAid, in a telephone interview. He had picked Chen Guangcheng up in her car after he escaped and drove him to Beijing, according to accounts online.

Lawyer Guo Yushan, who was involved in Chen’s escape, was also interrogated by police, according to Radio France Internationale

The world watches as china once is making a fool of itself by going after a blind lawyer, whose greatest fault was that he advised people to fight FORCED ABORTIONS by the Chinese govt. Maybe they sell their organs like they ( Chinese govt. ) confessed to doing on other citizens for profit too?

So you venting your frustration from the other thread, by opening threads about these petty news

How am I venting when you ran away from it after your typical racist remarks? and since when is a rights activist under US embassy protection a petty news? How much embezzled funds from china were diverted to get you into our educational institutions. Certainly with that IQ you have shown in your reply, your admission could not have been on merit

“What I fear most now is that Chen Guangcheng’s relatives might be tortured and lose their lives,”

Reminds me of the song Bhaag DK Bose.

Much more scary than the woman your police forces tortured and deliberately infected with HIV. Even African regimes don't do that.

If only they ( not my force) had indeed done it or if she was infected. But that would mean you had to read the article that you posted about crimes in a defense section. I tell you one thing that is not scary- the state of Chinese security/military. All the US or your neighbors have to do is send in it's blind populous into china . They would be openly sabotage without being noticed.

We? you are no " we". You are transplant form the 3rd world country come here to study/ been admitted on the basis of a successful embezzlement. You are not American and for that matter not really Chinese, since phase ONE of the great migration is completed. We ( Americans) are waiting for the rest of your brood to escape with remainder of the embezzled funds .

Btw know the difference between colloquialism and ghetto. Ghetto is seeing your kind trying to be all OG with frosted tips, huge speakers in the trunk and rims sticking out of the sides, with driver seat all the way back listening to 50 cent while throwing gang signs.

You are sending an adjective into China?

I'm describing the kind of people I'm sending. both figuratively and actually blind. What was the deposit from the folks into our banks today? Also transplant - In our colloquialism: Noun. populous. Alternative spelling of populace. Populous is primarily a US /Canadian misspelling of populace.

That is because of capitalism. China should have another Cultural Revolution where everyone snitch on everyone else in trying to preserve their miserable lives.
