China: Death Brgerrechtler-lst Wutwelle from the Web

 Photos from the cruel death of a civil rights authorities in China to bring Erklärungsnot. More and more indignant subjects denounce the web arbitrariness, corruption and excesses of many officials. The censors did not come with the deleting everything after. Beijing - Qian Yunhui died in a cruel way: His body was crushed on Saturday under the wheel of a truck - Now the death of 53-year-old Chinese triggered a wave of protests in Chinese-language Internet.


Photos of the incident circulating on various websites. They show how the victim, run over by a tire of the truck, on his belly in the dirt, is his shoulder is torn, his head twisted unnaturally (Daily Buzz World only shows part of one of these pictures). Qian's fate angered many of his countrymen - and thousands to write their anger on blogs and forums on the soul.

Many of these online writers, reports the New York Times, "are convinced that employees are the government for the death of the man responsible. For six years, Qian villagers supported in the southeastern province of Zhejiang in a dispute with officials at land for a power plant. People should no compensation for their land have received.

Land theft is common in China. Critics believe that government employees Qian brought to silence, he ventured with his appeal to Beijing. He also said to have had at an upcoming local election best chance of being headman. The Chinese government seeks to dismiss the man's death as a tragic accident.

Even the censors in the People's Republic, it fails, the proliferation of information and views complete control over the Internet. Witnesses and relatives were arrested Thus, local party leaders saw in the province of Zhejiang forced to take position in a press conference to Qian's death.

They ironed as from critical issues - but police officers from another town to clear up the case now. The driver of the truck was arrested, but villagers and relatives of the victim are some questions unresolved: How should Qian received according to his wife shortly before his death a call.

A witness told journalists that he had seen that men in uniforms Qian expressed on the street and then let him run over by a truck. The witness and some family members of the dead were reportedly arrested. On a browser Thousands comments were deleted on the case. But in the network are circulating more photos of the accident - and there are critical questions: Why was a new surveillance camera is turned off at the intersection? Why does no damage to the truck by the collision with the victim? Reports of sex and alcohol excesses of officials in other cases it was found that the Chinese leadership does not critique the internet can stop completely.

So in October, an incident in central China has been known. The son of a deputy police chief said to have run over two young drunk people. As he races away from the accident, he allegedly shouted, "Show me if you dare My father is Li Gang." Also excesses of officials became public over the Internet.

A member of the Communist Party (CP) was arrested after alleged diary entries were published by him on the Internet, in which he had reported on permissive sex, drinking and black money payments to parties. Another officer got drunk at several banquets so violently that he died. Because reports of sex and binge drinking, expensive pleasure trips and lavish parties Communist Party officials shall at the expense of the taxpayer in the Chinese population of frustration to see the KP-peak forced to act.

They now announced a campaign to "eradicate the phenomenon of extravagance and waste." In one year 113 000 officials punished for corruption, the top corruption fighter of the party, Wu Yuliang, referred reporters to recent successes. BE AUTHORIZED this year, 113 000 officials were punished for corruption.

4300 cases were handed over for further investigation to the judicial authorities. Luxurious missions by Chinese officials cost the taxpayer every year the equivalent of 44 billion euros, has calculated how the state television station CCTV. In one of these trips officials booked hotel room two years ago for the equivalent of 530 euros per night in a hotel in Las Vegas and also visited a sex show in San Francisco.

The Chinese leadership demonstrated in the past, tough with some corrupt employees: So the Head of the Department of Health and Food Safety was executed because he allowed himself to lubricate favor of allowing counterfeit drugs official. But now that the announced anti-corruption campaign really successful is doubtful.

Measures in recent years, often ran in the sand. Corruption fighters were sometimes caught as they stuffed money into their own pockets.

Sun Hongjie was chief reporter for the newspaper Beijing Morning Post "have been in the province of Xinjiang.

He was on 17 December in the city Kuitunen attacked by six men and died days later of his injuries. The police traced the crime to a fight in the personal environment. Many Chinese journalists doubt it though. The newspaper Global Times reported that Sun has recently reported the forced demolition of a company building.

Make way for the construction of houses had to be created for government employees. In China, journalists can be punished if they report corruption to the authorities. The Committee to Protect Journalists, based in New York therefore expressed doubts about the official version of the attack on the reporter.
