[Epoch Times September 18, 2021]”The Supervisory Group of Central Political and Legal Organs is headed by Zhang Xuan, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the Chongqing Municipal People’s Congress, and supervises the Central Political and Legal Committee and the Ministry of Public Security; the second group of Central Political and Legal Organs is supervised by the Chairman of the Gansu Provincial Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference. Ouyang Jian is the team leader, supervising the Supreme Court and the Supreme Procuratorate; the third group of the Central Political and Legal Organ Supervision is headed by Li Wei, director of the Standing Committee of the Beijing Municipal People’s Congress, supervising the Ministry of National Security and the Ministry of Justice… As of September 14, 3 central political and legal organs The supervision team has fully settled in 6 central political and legal organs.” This is the first paragraph of the September 17th China “Legal System Daily” news “16 central supervision groups and 3 central political and legal organ supervision groups are all stationed in place”.
This is another action taken by the CCP authorities against the political and legal system since July 2020, at the request of Xi Jinping, and after thirty years of rectification of the political and legal system in the country, the goal of this time is The senior political and legal departments include the Central Political and Legal Committee, the Ministry of Public Security, the Supreme Court, the Supreme Procuratorate, the Ministry of National Security, the Ministry of Justice, and the six central political and legal institutions as well as 31 provincial political and legal institutions. According to the news, the supervision team “carried out direct supervision and on-site guidance”, and released a clear signal, that is: full coverage of the central supervision, no dead ends, and the national political and legal education rectification will never allow “to tighten the front and loosen the back” or “down”. Strict and lenient”, we still have to dare to move really hard, go deeper and be solid. A wave of “murderous aura” hit his face.
Please pay attention to the subtext behind the above term. “Full coverage, no dead ends” means that no matter how high or low the official position is, as long as there is a problem, it is the object of purge; After purging the middle and lower-level political and legal systems, you must never relax, and you must not be soft when purging the high-level political and legal systems, lift them up high, and gently put them down; “Dare to move really hard, go deep and realistic” means facing the political and legal system Senior officials, no matter how hard the background and backstage are, they must dare to touch, dare to investigate in depth, and take true guilt.
It can be seen from this that the Central Political and Legal Committee, the Ministry of Public Security, the Supreme Court, the Supreme Procuratorate, the Ministry of National Security, the Ministry of Justice, and the senior officials of the provincial political and legal departments will have a very difficult life in the future, and many people will be awake at night. Because in the great dyeing tank of the CCP, especially in the particularly dark system of the political and legal system, no high-ranking official is innocent, otherwise he would not climb to such a high position.
Why is Xi Jinping unabashedly pointing at the senior officials of the political and legal department at this time? Analysis articles in previous years have pointed out many times that since Jiang sent Da Ma Tsai Zhou Yongkang successively took charge of the Ministry of Public Security and the political and legal system, criminal cases in China have increased by 17% to 22% every year, and the public security department has become the most corrupt recognized by the people. , The darkest yamen, the country has a high rate of serious criminal cases, criminal forces are rampant, and people everywhere are more dissatisfied with social security. In addition, the political and legal system is also an important department in the persecution of Falun Gong, and a large number of officials and police at all levels have committed crimes.
Xi Jinping knows this well. After he took office in 2012, in order to eliminate interference from the Jiang faction, Xi also carried out several clearances against the public security and political and legal systems. Zhou Yongkang, Sun Lijun, Deng Huilin, Gong Daoan and other high-ranking public security and political and legal officials with Jiang faction background were taken one after another. Down. However, the Jiang faction, which has been entrenched in the political and legal system for many years, has still not been eliminated. The remnants of the public security and judicial systems at all levels have been turbulent from time to time, adding obstacles to Xi Jinping and arguing for the Jiang faction.
On January 22 this year, in his speech at the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China, Xi mentioned that anti-corruption should “focus on corruption cases that are intertwined with political and economic issues” and “seriously investigate and deal with disloyalty to the party and violations. The two-faced people in the political and legal systems severely punish corruption in the political and legal system, and thoroughly investigate corruption in the areas of poverty alleviation, people’s livelihood, and crime-related “protective umbrellas””, and link anti-corruption with political security.
Obviously, the fundamental problem of the political and legal officials such as Zhou Yongkang, Sun Lijun, and Deng Huilin, who were dismissed from the Jiang faction, is definitely a political issue, that is, political “disloyalty” and “two-faced people who violate the right and the evil.” They pose a huge political threat to Xi, especially when it comes to coups. Judging from the information disclosed at home and abroad, the Jiang faction headed by Jiang Zemin started plotting a coup d’etat several years ago, with the intention of replacing Xi Jinping and the Jiang faction’s confidant, and for this purpose they established a coup team.
For example, late on the night of March 19, 2012, Zhou Yongkang, then secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of the Communist Party of China, launched an attempted coup. It is reported that the purpose was to snatch the key witness of the Bo Xilai case, the wealthy businessman Xu Ming of Dalian Shide, and to assassinate the former Premier Wen Jiabao. It is also said that Zhou Yongkang mobilized large-scale armed police forces to surround Xinhuamen and Tiananmen. Hu Jintao rushed the 38th Army into Beijing and confronted the armed police outside the Political and Legal Committee building. The armed police fired warning shots to the sky, but the elite troops of the 38th Army quickly disarmed all the armed police. Many Beijing residents heard gunshots that night.
Another example is Sun Lijun who is another force of perverting Xi. After participating in an attempted coup in 2020, he fell from the horse. The Epoch Times once quoted an insider as saying that his downfall was “Xi Jinping wanted to remove the threat to him”, “If there is a problem in this situation, the threat to Xi is too great, and this threat is so great that he can lose his life. “.
The latest attempted assassination involved Deng Huilin. On September 14, an article signed “Shang Xian Lao Hou” published by Sohu and NetEase on the mainland revealed an incident jointly committed by Luo Wenjin, the former head of the Criminal Police Corps of the Jiangsu Provincial Public Security Bureau and Deng Huilin, the former director of the Chongqing Public Security Bureau. They “are both fellow villagers in Wuhan, Hubei. They exchanged information, arbitrarily discussing the central government’s policies, and insulting the main leaders of the country. Even when planning the leaders to hold a commemorative event in Nanjing, the criminal activities were prevented by the Ministry of Security personnel.”
“The plan leader’s failure to hold a commemorative event in Nanjing” most likely refers to the assassination of Xi Jinping in Nanjing in December 2014 when he attended the National Memorial Ceremony for the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre. Obviously, even though Luo Wenjin and Deng Huilin were participants, they were nothing but the mastermind. At this time, when they were pointing at the top of the political and legal system, it was very intriguing to expose this case. Is it possible that there are also accomplices among the senior officials of the political and legal system? And it has something to do with Jiang faction?
If the previous purging of the political and legal system was aimed at weakening the Jiang faction, but it was still in order to maintain a certain balance and did not touch certain people, then, in the current “hostile struggle” of life and death, will Xi Jinping still be soft? ?
At present, the chief officials of the six central political and legal institutions are: Guo Shengkun, Secretary of the Central Political and Legal Committee, Zhao Kezhi, Minister of Public Security, Zhou Qiang, President of the Supreme Court, Zhang Jun, Chief Prosecutor of the Supreme Procuratorate, Chen Wenqing, Minister of Security, and Tang Yijun, Minister of Justice. Among the six, Guo Shengkun and Zhou Qiang, who have Jiang faction background or follow Jiang faction, are high-risk officials, and they have been beaten many times by Xi.
Guo Shengkun, who is said to be the nephew of Zeng Qinghong, the No. 2 figure of the Jiang faction, appeared to be “in keeping with Xi Central Committee” during his tenure as Minister of Public Security, but secretly contradicted Xi Sing from time to time. For example, in 2015, human rights lawyers and activists were arrested on a large scale, just as Xi Jinping was about to visit the United States. The international community’s condemnation caused by it made Xi’s visit to the United States quite embarrassing.
In addition, during his tenure, the Ministry of Public Security has supervised many cases of persecution of human rights, such as the criminal detention of conscientious entrepreneur Wang Gongquan in 2013, the sentence of lawyer Xu Zhiyong in 2014, the “Jian Sanjiang Case” of a lawyer who defended Falun Gong practitioners in 2014, and 2015 Guangzhou human rights activist Guo Feixiong was sentenced to 6 years in prison. Guo Shengkun also called for increased suppression of Falun Gong practitioners at a secret meeting in Tianjin in May 2015.
Therefore, in 2016, when the Central Inspection Team gave feedback to the Ministry of Public Security and the “610” Office under it, it pointed out that “the problem lies below, the root lies on the top.” Disloyal. Now, when Xi Jinping severely punished Alibaba, purged Didi and Tencent, and sacrificed Zhao Wei to clean up the literary circle, can Guo Shengkun escape?
Zhou Qiang, who was in a similar situation to Guo Shengkun, also sang against the highest level many times. For example, on the occasion of Xi Jinping’s visit to Switzerland in 2017, Zhou Qiang said at a symposium of the presidents of the National High Court that “we must severely punish the crime of inciting subversion of state power” and resist the “constitutional democracy”, “separation of powers”, and “judicial independence” in the West. Such thoughts cannot fall into the “trap” of Western thinking and judicial independence. CCTV still has its criticisms of Falun Gong. The above remarks were immediately strongly condemned by all walks of life. Does this come from “Shangyi”? At that time, some analysis pointed out that this not only runs counter to Xi Jinping’s “ruling the country according to law,” but also clearly digs holes for Xi Jinping and makes him embarrassed.
In 2019, Zhou Qiang was caught in the scandal of the disappearance of Shaanxi’s 100 billion mining rights file. However, he was not dismissed from office even though he was met with indifference from the highest level. Can he escape this time?
In addition to whether Guo Shengkun and Zhou Qiang will have an accident after the supervision team settles in, it is worth paying attention to. The retired former secretary of the Central Political and Legal Committee and Minister of Public Security Meng Jianzhu is also worthy of attention. As a member of the Jiang faction, although Meng said that he “never gave instructions to interfere in any case,” during his tenure, various human rights persecution cases were common. Isn’t he responsible?
The author believes that after the Beijing authorities have signaled “full coverage, no blind spots,” strictly forbidden “be strict and lenient”, and “dare to be tough, go deeper and be solid”, it should not be long before there will be a political and legal system. Senior officials were dismissed, including retirees from various provinces. However, Jiang Zeng’s forces will never wait to die, and will continue to disrupt the situation. Greater vicious fights and fights are still in the background.
