[The Epoch Times, March 31, 2022](Reported by Epoch Times reporters Ning Haizhong and Luo Ya) The “Chain Girl” incident in Xuzhou, Jiangsu is still raging. While maintaining stability and banning dissent, the official stated that they would crack down on the trafficking of women and children. On March 29, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang denounced human trafficking as “harmful to the world” at the “Anti-Trafficking” conference, and Zhao Kezhi, the Minister of Public Security of the Chinese Communist Party, also made a strong statement.
However, a former police officer who is familiar with the inside story of the mainland system said that the CCP will only find scapegoats, and in fact hide it from the sky. Analysis believes that rampant trafficking is a crime of the CCP system.
On March 29, at the anti-trafficking conference, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang once again denounced “human trafficking and human trafficking,” and stressed that “criminals involved must be resolutely arrested and brought to justice.” He again demanded accountability.
The pro-Beijing Overseas Duowei website claimed that this is the third time this month that Li Keqiang has publicly responded to the “chain girl” incident in Feng County, Xuzhou, Jiangsu. The government work report read by Li Keqiang at the March 5 meeting of the Chinese Communist Party stated that it is necessary to “severely crack down on the crime of abducting and trafficking in women and children, and resolutely protect the legitimate rights and interests of women and children.”
At the meeting of Chinese and foreign reporters after the closing of the two sessions on March 11, Li Keqiang did not mention the iron chain woman incident, but took the initiative to say, “Recently, serious violations of women’s rights have occurred in some places, and we are not only sad for the victims. , is also very angry about this.”
In addition, Zhao Kezhi, Minister of Public Security of the Communist Party of China, who attended the anti-trafficking meeting on March 29, also showed a tough stance, claiming that not only should we build a “new pattern of anti-trafficking”, but also “deeply carry out a special campaign against the crime of trafficking in women and children”, “strictly Punish the crime of abduction and trafficking quickly” and “form a powerful deterrent”.
Former police officer: CCP just hides the truth
The Xuzhou “Chain Girl” incident was exposed on January 28, and it was later revealed that when the woman was abducted and sold to the village, she was gang-raped as a child, her teeth were broken, and the tip of her tongue was cut. 7 children were born in 10 years.
After the iron chain girl incident came to light, justice people from different groups spontaneously conducted investigations, signed solidarity, and advocated, etc., and continued to pay attention to the incident. Folks believe that the chain girl is actually Li Ying, a Sichuan girl who was abducted at the age of 12, but the official denial, five consecutive notifications failed to quell the voice of doubt.
The fifth bulletin issued by the Jiangsu investigation team on February 23, in addition to claiming that the chain girl is Yang Xia, is Yunnan Xiaohuamei, and that Sichuan Li Ying did not exist in the incident, it also dealt with the county party secretary and a total of 17 lower-level officials. officials.
On March 2, the Ministry of Public Security of the Communist Party of China issued a circular, claiming that from March 1 to December 31, a special campaign to “fight the trafficking of women and children” would be launched across the country.
Dong Guangping, a former police officer in mainland China, told The Epoch Times on March 31 that the chain girl incident itself was very bad, and there was something more evil hidden behind it. “This woman has been imprisoned for more than 20 years and was sexually assaulted to give birth to a child. Who knows, she will be very angry, because it completely violates human ethics. Therefore, Li Keqiang, as the prime minister of a country, if you don’t speak up, it is a serious dereliction of duty.”
But Dong Guangping believes that if the incident is fully exposed, the CCP will lose its moral basis for governing. “If this case is carefully investigated, countless women in chains can be found across the country. It is easy for him to investigate. The CCP’s public security has a large database, a grass-roots organization, and a police station. If he wants to investigate, he will definitely be able to find out. But If you find out, the CCP will be completely doomed. You have ruled the CCP for decades, what are you doing?”
Dong Guangping said that the CCP’s consistent practice is that anything that can jeopardize the CCP’s reputation and its ruling position must be made small and trivial, and find a few scapegoats to deal with it. .
The CCP authorities are still making every effort to maintain stability in the chain girl incident
The Chain Girl incident continues to ferment to this day, and the CCP authorities continue to suppress non-governmental followers.
Born in Feng County, Xuzhou, Wang Shengqiang is the producer, director, and media person of China.com’s “Interview with Famous Experts” column. He was arrested by the CCP for revealing that the chain girl was a missing 12-year-old Sichuan girl Li Ying, not the Yunnan girl Xiaohuamei that the CCP officially insisted. Authorities suppressed.
Wang Shengqiang disclosed on Weibo on March 27 that the police went around asking about his residence and found his home in Beijing late at night. He told netizens that if his Weibo was stopped, he would be taken away by Jiangsu Province.
On the evening of the 28th, Wang Shengqiang’s Weibo has been banned, and his current situation is unknown.
In addition to Wang Shengqiang, the post-90s Anhui girl Wuyi was also arrested for supporting the “chain girl”. After she was released in February, she revealed that she was tortured by the police in Fengxian County, Xuzhou in the detention center. Because she continued to pay attention to the “chain girl”, she was arrested again by Xuzhou police on March 1.
It is reported that Wu Yi is currently being held under residential surveillance in Pei County, Xuzhou City, accused of “picking quarrels and provoking trouble”, and her lawyer has also been banned from meeting.
Chen Guangcheng, a well-known rights activist living in the United States, previously told The Epoch Times that the matter of the Chain Girl has not been settled. For example, “Netizens investigate that the Chain Girl is Li Ying, but the Communist Party says that the Chain Girl is Xiao Huamei, but it controls her, does not let her go home, and does not let netizens visit her, which itself tells everyone that there is something behind Shit.”
Xuzhou public security official was sacked in the chain case?Analysis: The Sins of the CCP System
On March 29, Jiangsu officials announced that Zhou Tao, former deputy secretary of the party committee and executive deputy director of the Xuzhou Public Security Bureau, was investigated for “suspicion of serious violations of discipline and law”.
The mainland self-media “Bashu Fayan” posted a guess: Is it related to the iron chain girl case? After the incident, many officials were punished, including the secretary of the Fengxian County Party Committee and the county magistrate. The local public security system has also been criticized.
However, there is currently no relevant official information to show that Zhou Tao’s fall from the horse is related to the iron chain woman case.
Dong Guangping told The Epoch Times, “For sure, the director has done a lot of bad things in this (Chain Girl) case.”
He said that such a major thing cannot be done by one or two people, and it will last for decades. Including the Family Planning Commission, the Public Security Bureau, the Women’s Federation, many grass-roots organizations, and a large group of officials are involved. “But in the end, the CCP has to arrest a few people and deal with it. It just said that it was the officials below who did bad things, and it has nothing to do with the CCP or the leaders at the top. It must be like this.”
Zheng Haochang, a commentator on current affairs in the United States, told The Epoch Times that the problem of trafficking in women has been going on for decades. Instead of abating, it has become more and more serious. All the senior executives could not escape. As far as the single chain girl incident is concerned, if we go back 30 to 40 years, we should go back at least to the Jiang Zemin period.
