Lawyers for blind Chinese activist boycott 'unjust and illegal' trial
BEIJING -- A blind Chinese activist was put on trial but his lawyers boycotted the proceeding after three of them were detained and they were barred from seeing their client, one of the lawyers said.
The trial of Chen Guangcheng, who was arrested after recording complaints by villagers of forced abortions, ended Friday after about two hours without a verdict, according to lawyer Zhang Lihui. He didn't attend the proceeding in a court in eastern China but said Chen's two brothers told him what happened.
Chen faced charges of illegal assembly and intent to damage public property, which his supporters say were fabricated in retaliation for his activism. He could be sentenced to a maximum of five years in jail.mainichi
中国には人権はない、子どもを持つ権利も、表現の自由も、正当な裁判を受ける権利もないということですか？？
