[QUOTE="beulahkilborn781, post: 478040, member: 35692"] The Writers in Prison Committee of International PEN is seriously concerned about the detention of dissident writer Wang Dejia (aka Jing Chu), who was arrested on 14 December 2007 on suspicion of ‘inciting subversion of state power'. International PEN fears that Wang Dejia may be held in violation of Article 19 of the United Nations International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which China is a signatory, and if so calls for his immediate and unconditional release. According to PEN's information, Guangxi-based dissident writer Wang Dejia was arrested from his home in Guilin, in China's southern Guangxi Province, on 13 December 2007 and taken to the Quanzhou Chengbei police Station, where he was detained on suspicion of ‘inciting subversion of state power'. His family believe his detention is directly related to his articles published on-line on the Minzhu Luntan website (Democracy Forum, [URL="http://asiademo.org)"]http://asiademo.org)[/URL], including ‘Illegal Possession of State Secrets - an important Chinese Communist Party Invention that Persecutes Prisoners of Conscience', ‘Handcuffed Olympics Will Bing Only Disasters to the People', and ‘Yi Yuanlong Jailed for Two Years for Four articles; How Many Will I be Jailed For?' His wife also reports that in October 2007 he met with U.S. Embassy officials to discuss human rights in China. [/QUOTE]
