【禁聞】小販被毆自衛殺城管判死 民眾喊冤

【新唐人2011年5月17日訊】殺死城管人員的瀋陽小販夏俊峰,在二審中被判處死刑。但是夏俊峰卻獲得了中國民眾的大量支持、同情和援助,公民搶救夏俊峰行動在網上展開。而為甚麼城管與攤販之間往往出現暴力對抗?城市的弱勢群體面臨的是一個甚麼樣的制度與法律?誰能真正保護他們?請看大陸民眾各方的看法。

大陸民眾目前正在以捐款、法律説明、網路評論等方式,聲援因殺死城管人員而被判死刑的夏俊峰。5月10號,遼寧高級人民法院二審判決死刑的當天,有網友在網上發起募捐,幫助夏俊峰家人。由於民眾踴躍參與,2天內募得18萬元人民幣,遠遠超出了10天募集6萬元的原計劃。

夏俊峰和妻子為了養家餬口,兩年前(2009年5月)在街邊賣燒烤,被城管人員沒收設備。在盤問中,雙方發生毆鬥,夏俊峰持水果刀將兩名城管人員殺死。一審和二審都判夏俊峰死刑。但辯方律師指出,夏俊峰是在遭到城管人員的集體毆打時用水果刀自衛,造成人員傷亡,他不應負任何刑事責任。

夏俊峰的姊姊向《希望之聲電臺》表示: 「在一個路口的時候,他當時在馬路上就被毆打了,群毆,他本人也有傷。周圍也有老百姓看著,公安分局都不給取證,咱們當地老百姓他們受到警察騷擾,不敢出來作證,我們也去查訪的時候,都躲起來了。」

以敢言著稱的《南方都市報》星期六發表社論,對遼寧省司法機關審判夏俊峰案的司法程序提出質疑,並敦促最高院在死刑覆核時,要“以一個經得起歷史考驗的公正判決,來為已然疏離、斷裂甚至變得有些對立的社會情緒解套”。

陳樹慶(中國民主黨成員、異議作家):“對弱勢群體來說,他已經基本上能夠深刻的感受到,這個社會制度對他們生活的不公和壓迫,對他們生存的威脅,對他們尊嚴的傷害。”

山東中都劍律師事務所崔趨強律師在網上提出:「夏俊峰決不能殺!」,他認為,《刑法》打擊的不是像被告人夏俊峰那樣,因為養家餬口而被迫殺人的公民, 死刑也絕不是用來恐嚇和鎮壓人民群眾的。一個中國公民為了養家餬口,居然不得不殺人,這不能不是一種悲哀。

而貴州民主人士廖雙元向《新唐人》表示:“共產黨踐踏人權,踐踏他自己制定的憲法,全是假的,給外國人看到。這些條例不實施,所以老百姓生活是沒有出路的。這就激起了激烈的反抗。”

英國《金融時報》中文網發表專欄作家老愚的評論,他對中國的特權階層分析說,“他們對一個地方、行業的蹂躪是全方位和毀滅性的,他們所到之處,正義和公平消失了。他們指鹿為馬,任人唯親,順我者昌、逆我者亡:好人噤若寒蟬,壞人如魚得水。”

署名“雷浩然”的作者也發表了“襲警案頻發 中共「敵人」遍天下”的評論文章。他認為,像城管和警察這一類本應執法保護人民的人,卻為了維護官員的利益而對民眾殘酷欺壓,促使大陸近年來爆發了很多像楊佳、鄧玉嬌這樣的抗暴事件。他指出,現在的中共可以說是“敵人”遍天下了。

陳樹慶表示,中共社會中的嚴重不公,導致群起反抗,發展到一定的時候,會促成中國人實現重大的社會變革。

Killing to Survive

Shenyang street vendor Xia Junfeng, sentenced

to death for killing 2 city security officers,

is receiving a wave of sympathy from online forums.

Netizens expressed their opinion

about violence faced by the disadvantaged groups

in China, and the legal system』s ineffectiveness.

On May 10, Liaoning Provincial High People』s Court

sentenced Xia Junfeng to death. Xia』s case attracted

much sympathetic attention in forms of donations,

legal appeals and online posts.

An online fundraising event for Xia』s family

raised RMB180,000 in 2 days.

Xia Junfeng and his wife were selling kebabs

in May 2009, when they were confronted

by city security officers. During the conflict,

Xia stabbed 2 officers to death,

and was therefore sentenced to death.

However, Xia』s defense attorney insists

that Xia was acting in self-defense

as he was severely beaten by the security officers.

Xia』s sister said to Sound of Hope Radio:

“He was beaten when he was at the street corner.

He was beaten and injured by a group of officers.

There were many eyewitnesses,

but the authorities didn』t even collect evidence.

Some local residents were harassed by the police,

and did not dare to testify.

They all went hiding when we visited them.”

The Southern Metropolis Daily published an editorial

questioning the legitimacy of the court procedures

in Xia Junfeng』s case. The editorial urges

the supreme court to pass “a verdict

that will withstand the test of time,

calm the estranged, broken,

and somewhat conflictive sentiments in society.”

Author Chen Shuqing: “The disadvantaged groups

all feel the injustice and oppression in society,

the threat they pose to their survival,

and the harm they bring to their dignity.”

Lawyer Cui Quqiang said online:

“Xia Junfeng absolutely cannot be killed!”

Cui believes that the Criminal Law

should not be used against a citizen

who was forced to kill to survive;

and death sentences should not be used

to terrify and oppress the public.

It is a real tragedy that a Chinese citizen

had no other choice but to kill to survive.”

Guizhou activist Liao Shuangyuan said to NTDTV:

“The Chinese Communist Party (CCP)

violates human rights, and its own constitution.

It is all a lie. It』s just a show for the world.

The laws are not enforced,

so the people have nowhere to turn.

All of this is triggering intense grievances.”

Financial Times columnist Lao Yu wrote:

“Their ravage of a place or industry is destructive.

Wherever they go, justice disappears.

They abuse power and rule at will,

crushing those who stand on their way,

terrifying the good and encouraging the evil.”

Author Lei Haoran believes forces, meant to protect

the people, like city security officers and police,

turn against the people for the ruling class,

which results in recent anti-oppression cases

such as those of Yang Jia and Deng Yujiao.

The CCP is making enemies everywhere now.

Chen Shuqing says that social injustice is causing

public resistance, which will eventually result in

major social transformation.
