A medium sentence was sentenced to a citizen reporter who informed the outside of the news of Wuhan in Hubei Province, China, which was blocked by Corona 19. On the 28th (AFP), the Shanghai Pudong New District People’s Court sentenced Jang Zan, 37, a lawyer and citizen reporter, accused of disseminating distorted and counterfeit information, to four years in prison. According to the lawyer’s words, “Jang-jan appeared in a wheelchair in a wheelchair for a long hunger strike, and was shocked when he was sentenced. His mother, who had been listening to the trial, cried out while the judgment was read. I said. Zhang Zan bought a train ticket to Chongqing on February 1st and got off alone at Hankou Station in Wuhan on the way. He expressed the situation at the time, “I looked at the streets where no one was located right after I got off the train, and it was as if I was watching a movie set where everyone left after filming.” Afterwards, Jang Jang went around the cemetery where the funeral procession continued and the hospitals filled with patients to the corridors, and informed the outside world of the blocked Wuhan reality through social media WeChat (WeChat), Twitter, and YouTube. His’citizen reporter’ activity continued until he was arrested on May 14 and sent to Shanghai, his residence. Even after the arrest, Jang Jang’s opinions were not broken, and from June, he began fighting for hunger, arguing that the arrest was unfair. The public security authorities tied his arms, intubated, and forcibly injected liquid food. The prosecution indicted Jang Jang in November, six months after the arrest. “I quarreled and caused trouble. He distorted the facts and disseminated false information.” His interview with foreign media such as (RFA) was also added as a crime. Attorney Renchuan-yu, who interviewed him in early December, said, “He has suffered a lot of deterioration due to fasting, and he complained of headache, stomach pain, and dizziness.” Jang Jan also said that he would reject the trial, saying, “It was insulting to be brought to court.” He was detained last year for making comments in support of protests against the repatriation law in Hong Kong. On the other hand, a trial was held at the Yantian People’s Court in Shenzhen this afternoon against 12 Hong Kong youth activists who had been arrested and detained in Shenzhen by the Coast Guard while heading to Taiwan for asylum in August. “The trial was held privately, and not only the family but also the lawyers appointed by the family could not attend the trial,” he said. “Diplomatic envoys from eight countries including the United States, Britain, and France arrived at the court for observation, but were denied entry.” Told.
