Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo has not seen improvements in their situation since more than six months ago won the Nobel Peace Prize. Nobody knows where you are. The only information that is clear is imprisoned without the right to visitation with his wife controlled and monitored at all times. The Nobel Committee raised last October 8, 2010 the wrath of the Chinese government to distinguish this intellectual imprisoned for "subversion." The name of Liu Xiaobo, virtually unknown abroad, went around the world: on one side caused an avalanche of messages for his release, and secondly, the wrath of Beijing.
Since then and as merciless repression continues in China (where the artist Ai Weiwei has been arrested), no one has leaked the fate of the only Nobel Prize awarded to a Chinese citizen. Nobody knows your current situation or even if it is still in prison in Liaoning (northeast). "We know nothing new," said Renee Xia, Defenders of Human Rights in China, "only two unverifiable rumors." The first says that Xiaobo had moved from jail to house arrest, "but the message was not identified in Twitter and quickly disappeared from the Net," said Renee Xia.
The second rumor that Liu would speak freely for medical reasons. This was tweeted by the militant Mo Zhixue, on 1 April. Xia added that "everything revolves around a secret Xiaobo, which means that nobody knows anything about him." Liu Xiaobo was suffering from liver problems and his family does not know "if even receive medical treatment." Nicholas Bequelin of Human Rights Watch, said "there is no reason to support the theory that Liu has been transferred" and that "his Nobel prize makes it possible to be treated better than a normal prisoner." Former teacher sentenced to 11 years in prison for having been co-author of 'Letter 08', in favor of democracy, has not been visited since last October 9, where his wife, Liu Xia, was the last him.
This is under house arrest in Beijing, private telephone and internet. "It's a unique event in the history of the Nobel Prize laureate's wife disappears in this way," said Bequelin. "There has been recent news of Liu Xiaobo and Liu Xia, his wife," said Shang, a lawyer for the dissidents, adding that he is in touch with one of the brothers of the winning Xiaobo, but you can not make visits to his client and therefore is a "violation of law." The current spiral of repression experienced by the Asian giant is not a good omen for the early release of Xiaobo.
Renee Xia explains gloomily that "the government more and more people arrested and accused of the crime for which the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize is behind bars," subversion.
