国际笔会狱中作家委员会关于中国网络作家被判重刑的紧急行动通报
（2004年9月22日）
国际笔会狱中作家委员会抗议对网络作家孔佑平和宁先华的重判，他们在2004年9月16
日被分别被判处十五年和十二年徒刑。国际笔会认为，孔佑平和宁先华仅仅是因为和平
地表达自己的观点而遭受监禁，因此是违背联合国人权宣言第19条的。我们呼吁将他们
立即无条件地释放。
根据笔会的信息，报道说孔佑平在2003年11月与宁先华一起被逮捕，是因为在海外网页
上贴了5篇文章和7首诗歌，挑战有关“六四事件” 的官方版本，指控官员腐败。两人
还被控张贴网上文章呼吁建立中国独立工会和支持地下反对党----中国民主党。据信，
这两人被判重刑与中国东北正在增长的工人动荡有关，那里的许多工厂工人因为国营企
业的失败而停工，一个有组织的工人运动正奋力而出。孔佑平和宁先华是2004年9月16
日被中国东北的辽宁省沈阳市中级人民法院以“颠覆国家政权”的罪名判刑的。
请送出呼吁：
抗议对网络作家孔佑平和宁先华的重判，并呼吁根据联合国人权宣言第19条将他们立即
无条件地释放。
呼吁书请寄给：
中华人民共和国主席胡锦涛阁下
（中国北京 10032，中华人民共和国国务院）
司法部长张福森阁下

CHINA: Internet writers handed down heavy prison sentences.
The Writers in Prison Committee of International PEN protests the heavy
prison
sentences handed down to internet writers Kong Youping and Ning Xianhua, who
were sentenced to 15 and 12 years in prison respectively on 16 September
2004
for their writings. International PEN considers Kong Youping and Ning
Xianhua
to be detained solely for the peaceful _expression of their opionions, and
therefore in contravention of Article 19 of the United Nations Universal
Declaration of Human Rights. We call for their immediate and unconditional
releas! e.
According to PEN's information, Kong Youping was reportedly arrested with
Ning
Xianhua in November 2003 after posting five articles and seven poems on an
overseas website challenging the official version of the "Beijing Spring"
and
alleging official corruption. The pair were also accused of posting online
essays calling for the establishment of trade unions in China and supporting
the underground opposition party the China Democratic Party (CDP). It is
thought that the heavy sentences against the pair are related to growing
workers' unrest in northeast China, where many factory workers for failing
state enterprises are being laid off and an organised labour movement is
struggling to emerge. Kong Youping and Ning Xianhua were each sentenced on
16
September 2004 by the Shenyang Intermediate People's Court, Liaoning
province,
northeastern China on charges of 'subverting state power'.
Please send appeals:
- Protesting the heavy prison sentences handed down to intern! et writers
Kong
Youping and Ning Xianhua, and calling for their immediate and unconditional
release in accordance with Article 19 of the United Nations Universal
Declaration of Human Rights.
