发生了什么?What Happened?

2021年9月19日下午,女权记者黄雪琴、职业病权益倡导者王建兵(昵称“煎饼”)于王建兵住处失联。后经确认,两人于当天下午3点左右被广州市公安局以涉嫌“煽动国家政权罪”抓捕,并疑对双方采取了“指定居所监视居住”(RSDL),但警方并未给家属寄送法律规定的通知书。黄雪琴原计划于9月20日经深圳前往香港机场,飞赴英国留学,而王建兵则原计划于当天给其送行。据知情人士确认,目前黄雪琴被关押在广州第二看守所、王建兵被关押在广州市第一看守所,家属无法向两人汇款,至今两人的身心健康状况仍不明确。

Feminist journalist Huang Xueqin and occupational disease advocate Wang Jianbing (nicknamed “pancake”, pronounced as “Jianbing” in Mandarin Chinese) were secretly taken away, last seen at Wang Jianbing’s apartment, since the afternoon of September 19, 2021. It was later confirmed that the two were arrested by the Guangzhou Public Security Bureau at around 3 pm that day on suspicion of “inciting subversion of state power”. It is also suspected that the two were placed under “Residential Surveillance at a Designated Residences” (RSDL), but the police did not send any formal notice to their families as legally required until the end of October. Huang Xueqin was planning to travel to Hong Kong International Airport via Shenzhen on September 20, 2021 to study in the United Kingdom, and Wang Jianbing had planned to accompany Huang part of the way.

此外,9月19日当天王建兵住处(中国广州市海珠区新港西路147-149号大院)被警方查抄,雪饼两人物品被警方取走,住处门锁被更换,门旁摄像头亦被拆走;警方迄今拒绝家属入屋收拾物品。9月20日下午,王建兵的朋友于黄埔区长洲岛用于储物的出租屋也遭到警方强行撬锁进入搜查,并带走大量物品和行李箱。9月底,黄雪琴家中遗留日记本亦被查抄带走,王建兵本人Facebook也发现被警方登陆。

On September 19, 2021, Wang Jianbing’s residence (#147-149, Xingang West Road, Haizhu District, Guangzhou, China) was also raided by the police, and both of their belongings were seized. Moreover, the front door lock was changed, and the front door security camera was removed as well. By the time this overview is written, the police still refused to allow their families to enter the apartment to pack their belongings. At the end of September, Xueqin’s journals, which were left at her apartment, was also confiscated by the police, and Wang Jianbing’s Facebook account was also found to be logged in by the police.

雪饼是因为什么被抓?Why are they arrested?

据多方了解,确定“雪饼”两人被抓主要原因涉及日常在王建兵家中的朋友聚会。警方获取了近40位曾参与聚会的人员照片和名单,来源为建兵住处一楼大门处的社区监控视频。警方在抓捕雪饼后,对聚会参与者多番骚扰和持续传唤,要求指认雪饼聚会中与时政相关的内容,并强迫要求参与者承认警方自行拟写的内容。

It has been confirmed, according to multiple sources, that the main reason for the arrest of the two has to do with the casual social gatherings at Wang Jianbing’s apartment. The police has acquired photos and a list of nearly 40 people who had participated in the gatherings from footages collected by surveillance cameras that were installed at the front door of Jianbing’s apartment building. After the arrest of Huang&Wang, police also continuously harassed and summoned participants of the gatherings for interrogation, asking them to identify contents that they deemed as politically sensitive, and forcing participants to sign false confessions that were drafted and fabricated by the police themselves.

据去过王建兵家中聚会的朋友反馈,因建兵生性喜喝茶,长期以来都会邀请朋友去家中喝茶聊天,聚会多聚焦分享生活日常、社群陪伴及抑郁社群支持和公益/慈善/艺术交流,极少涉及时政相关讨论。综合来看,警方试图恶意将聚会交流定性为组织“煽动颠覆国家政权”的行为。

According to friends who had been to Wang Jianbing’s gatherings, Jianbing had long invited his friends to his apartment for tea and chat, since he is a huge tea lover. At the gatherings, participants mostly focused on sharing their daily lives, offering support to friends from their communities, especially to those who had been suffering from depression, exchanging views and ideas on charitable causes and arts and etc. In other words, there wasn’t any conversations about politically sensitive topics at the gatherings. In a nutshell, characterizing the gathering as an act of “inciting subversion of state power” is a deliberately malicious attempt of the Guangzhou police to frame the two as such.

雪饼是谁,做过什么?Who is Wang Jianbing and Huang Xueqin?

王建兵(煎饼),1983年生,甘肃天水人。独立公益人,从事公益事业16年;朋友们都喜欢叫他“煎饼”。2005年大学毕业后,加入北京西部阳光农村发展基金从事农村发展工作,开启长期关注青少年教育及成长的公益职业生涯。曾担任西部阳光基金会农村教育项目主管5年。2014年加入广州恭明社会组织发展中心,作为青少年成长项目和残障社群赋能项目主管及统筹,支持和发起相关社区项目工作。2018年起开始关注职业病工人的权益倡导和服务性工作,提供必要的法律支持和社区支持。煎饼也是国内#MeToo运动中重要的支持者。

Wang Jianbing (born in 1983 in Tianshui, Gansu Province; independent labor activist): He has been engaged in non-profit work for over 16 years. After graduating from university in 2005, he joined the Western Sunshine Rural Development Foundation in Beijing to engage in rural development work, acting as the Project Manager of the Rural Education Program for five years. This kicked off his career as a non-profit worker with a deep commitment to youth education and development. In 2014, he joined the GongMing Institute of Social Organization and Development as the Project Manager and Coordinator of their Youth Development Project as well as their Disabled Community Empowerment Project. Since 2018, he has taken on advocacy and service work for workers with occupational diseases such as pneumoconiosis, providing necessary legal support. Wang was also a key supporter of the #MeToo movement in China.

黄雪琴,1988年生,广东韶关人。独立记者,曾任《新快报》及《南都周刊》的调查记者,关注性别、平权、官员贪污、企业污染、弱势群体等议题,也参与多起#MeToo案件的报道和为性侵害性骚扰受害人提供帮助和支持。黄雪琴本计划于2019年赴香港大学就读法学硕士,但后因发表香港“反送中”运动相关文章,于2019年10月17日被广州警方以“寻衅滋事罪”刑事拘留,后改“指定居所监视居住”至2020年1月17日取保获释。今年秋,黄雪琴成功获得英国志奋领奖学金支持,原计划于9月20日前往萨塞克斯大学(University of Sussex)就读性别与发展学硕士。

Huang Xueqin (born in 1988 in Shaoguan Prefecture, Guangdong Province; independent journalist): She has worked as an investigative reporter for News Express (xinkuai bao) and Southern Weekly. She focused on issues such as gender, affirmative action, official corruption, pollution from businesses, and marginalized groups. She also participated in many #MeToo campaigns to provide support and assistance to victims of sexual assault and harassment. Huang Xueqin planned to study for a master’s degree in law at the University of Hong Kong in 2019, but was criminally detained by Guangzhou police on October 17, 2019 for “picking quarrels and provoking trouble.” After spending time in enforced disapparance (“residential surveillance in a designated location”), Huang was later released on bail on January 17, 2020. She had received a Chevening Scholarship earlier this year, a full scholarship to study for a master’s degree in Gender and Development at the University of Sussex. She was planning to leave for the UK on September 20.

抓人之后,警察还在做什么? What Are Police Doing?

自2021年9月19日雪饼二人被抓后,广州警方联动全国多地公安部门,在广东本地及跨省地区传唤或审讯累计超过40人,这些朋友都被做了笔录,大多数都被强行搜查和拷贝电子设备。被骚扰人员的范围包括:警方从王建兵住处摄像头捕捉到的聚会人员以及与雪饼二人相关的朋友。广州警察没有出示任何合法手续即对他/她们进行了多次长达24小时的审讯和恐吓。警方要求他/她们指认:王建兵家中聚会的具体情况、指认参与者的人像照片、以及雪饼二人的其他社会活动和网络关系等。警方还要求这些朋友对外表示沉默,严令要求不能透露相关案情。

Since Huang Xueqin and Wang Jianbing were arrested on September 19, 2021, Guangzhou police linked up with many public security departments across the country, summoning and interrogating over 40 people in Guangdong local and inter-provincial areas. Friends were forcibly asked to give statements and to unlock their electronic devices for the police. Police also searched their homes and copied files on their electronic devices. Those who were harassed include: individuals whom the police had identified as participants of the social gatherings using footages collected by the surveillance cameras that were installed at Jianbing’s apartment building, and mutual friends of Wang and Huang. The police interrogated and intimated them for up to 24 hours without any legal formalities. They were asked by the police to identify the specifics of the gatherings at Wang’s apartment, match names of the participants with photos taken by the surveillance cameras, and other social activities and personal networks of Huang and Wang. The police asked the friends to be silent about the case in public and not to reveal any details of the intergoration.

最为严重的是,警方当下的核心办案策略是:强迫雪饼朋友签署警方编造的虚假口供,否则将会持续骚扰和对其家庭进行施压。被强迫签名的“口供”,虚假指控雪饼二人参与过“颠覆国家政权”的所谓培训活动,以及将建兵家中聚会捏造为批评政府的政治性聚会。我们有理由相信在狱中的雪饼二人必然坚决否定这样的指控,所以警方才不得不转换策略——骚扰雪饼朋友迫使他们签名虚假口供,以便未来作为重要的审判证据。直到现在,广州警方仍然持续地通过骚扰、传唤的方式来获取用于指控雪饼的非法证据。

What is worse is that the police’s core strategy in handling the case is by forcing Huang and Wang’s friends to sign false statements fabricated by the police, otherwise threatened them with continual harassment from police and pressure on their families. Some friends were forced to sign these “statements” and to falsely accuse Huang and Wang of participating in training activities that subvert state power. The police also fabricated that the gatherings at Wang Jianbing’s home were political gatherings to criticize the government. We have reason to believe that Huang and Wang have continued to deny these allegations in prison, which is why the police had no choice but to change their strategies, which is to instead harass Huang and Wang’s friends and force them to sign false statements. These false statments are believed to be key evidences in a future trial. Until now, the Guangzhou police continue to harass and summon friends as means to obtain illegal evidence to use against Huang and Wang.

家属和律师遭遇了什么?What Happened to the Family and Lawyer?

9月20日,雪饼被抓第二天,广州警察联同甘肃地方警察到王建兵老家进行维稳,威吓家属不得向外求助。9月28-30日期间,王建兵家人赴广州寻人,奔走于广州各级公安部门和广州市检察院,进行信访和投诉,均未获回复。9月30日,家属被广州警方约谈半小时,仅被告知“王建兵是被广州市公安局抓捕的”,但警方拒绝提供给家属任何通知书,亦要求家属对事件保持沉默。10月下旬,王建兵家属随律师再赴广州,家属被拒绝进入王建兵此前租住处,警方也再次约谈家属,要求其不得对外传播案件信息。

On September 20, the second day after Wang and Huang were abducted by the police, Guangzhou police together with Gansu police went to Wang Jianbing’s hometown, threatening the family not to seek help about the case. Between September 28 - 30, Wang Jianbing’s family went to Guangzhou to look for him. They went to every level of the Guangzhou Security Bureau as well as to the Guangzhou Procuratorate to petition and lodge formal complaints, yet they did not receive any response. On September 30, Wang’s family member was questioned by Guangzhou police for over half an hour, and was told that Wang Jianbing was arrested by Guangzhou Public Security Bureau. But police refused to provide the family with any formal notice, instead asked the family to be silent about the case. In late October, Wang’s family went to Guangzhou again with Wang’s lawyer. They were again denied access to Wang’s apartment. The police also questioned the family again, and asked them not to disseminate any information regarding the case to others.

律师方面:10月中旬,王建兵家属委托贵州萧云阳律师为王建兵辩护。10月21日,萧律师与广州市公安局的王警官见面,并向办案机关递交了委托手续和会见手续。随后几周的时间里,广州警方以“需要时间核实材料真实性”为由,拒绝承认律师的代理资格和会见申请,要求律师回去等核查通知。警方也暗示,“案件涉及国家安全,会见会有难度”。此后萧律师多次联系广州警方再次申请会见。11月19日,办案机关通知律师,没有批准律师会见及取保候审申请。

Regarding Wang Jianbing’s attorney: In the mid-October, Wang’s family appointed Guizhou attorney Xiao Yunyang to defend Wang Jianbing. On October 21, Attorney Xiao met with officer Wang from the Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, and submitted to the case-handling authority a application to meet with Wang Jianbing and the power of attorney. In the weeks that followed, Guangzhou police used the excuse that they “required more time to verify the authenticity of the documents” and refused to recognize the lawyer as Wang’s legal representative. His application for a lawyer visit was also denied by the police, who cited the same excuse. They requested the lawyer to return and wait for a notice. The police have also hinted that “the case involves national security, so there’ll be difficulty in meeting with Wang”. Afterwards, Attorney Xiao contacted Guangzhou police several times to apply for a meeting with Wang. On November 19, the case-handling authority notified Attorney Xiao that his request to meet with Wang was not approved, nor was his application requesting Wang to be released on bail.

“雪饼案”两人最新情况(截至2022.01.25) Most Recent Updates

最新情况:2022年1月25日,据知情人士确认,黄雪琴现正被关押于广州市第二看守所(白云区石井镇潭岗村),罪名为“煽动颠覆国家政权罪”。此前,2021年的11月5日,王建兵家属也收到了广州市公安局发出的“逮捕通知书”,显示王建兵因“煽动颠覆国家政权罪”被拘留于广州市第一看守所。

Latest updates of the case: On January 25, 2022, informed sources confirmed that Huang Xueqin is now being held at the Guangzhou Second Detention Center (Tangang Village, Shijing Town, Baiyun District) on charges of “inciting subversion of state power”. Previously, on November 5, 2021, Wang Jianbing’s family also received an “arrest notice” from the Guangzhou Public Security Bureau, indicating that Wang Jianbing was detained at the Guangzhou No. 1 Detention Center for “inciting subversion of state power.

此外,在11月王建兵家属收到逮捕通知书后,亲友们多次尝试通过“粤省事”系统给逮捕通知书上列明的广州市第一看守所汇款,输入雪饼二人的姓名和身份证后,均提示“审核不通过”。正常情况下,广东地区被羁押者亲友可以通过“粤省事”小程序进行汇款,但给雪饼汇款异常,说明了雪饼的关押地点极有可能和逮捕书上的不一致。雪饼真实的关押地点、身体状况等基本情况,无从得知。

After being informed of the arrest in November, relatives and friends tried to deposit money for the two through the online prison remittance system of Guangzhou No. 1 Detention Center. When Huang and Wang’s names and ID numbers were entered, the system showed “verification failed” and the attempt to deposit also subsequently failed. Normally relatives and friends of detainees in Guangdong would be able to deposit money through this system. Failure to do so implies that the two’s detention location might be different from what’s indicated by the notice. The real location of the detention remains unknowable, as well as other basic informations, such as their health conditions.

Amnesty International’s China Campaigner Gwen Lee said: “The Chinese government’s disdain for human rights has once again been laid bare by these unjustifiable charges for two activists whose only so-called crime has been to peacefully advocate for the welfare of others.

“Huang Xueqin is a prominent journalist who was only serving the Chinese public interest by investigating social issues, and it is outrageous to suspect her of subversion”, insists Reporters Without Borders (RSF) East-Asia bureau head, Cédric Alviani, who calls for Huang’s “immediate release alongside all other journalists and press freedom defenders detained in China.”

“The IFJ said, “Huang’s disappearance is concerning as detainment has been increasingly used by the Chinese government to suppress political dissent. The IFJ stands in solidarity with Huang, who has faced continual harassment by Chinese authorities for drawing attention to important issues in the public interest.””
