Liu Feiyue, the founder and director of Hubei-based website “Civil Rights and Livelihood Watch” (www.msguancha.com) who is facing charges of “inciting subversion of state power”, has been again unable to meet his lawyer. With no trial date yet confirmed, and no access to a lawyer, there are fears that he is at risk of torture and other ill-treatment.
1) TAKE ACTION
Write a letter, send an email, call, fax or tweet:
- Release Liu Feiyue unconditionally and immediately unless there is sufficient credible and admissible evidence that he has committed an internationally recognized offence and is granted a fair trial in line with international standards;
- Ensure that Liu Feiyue is protected from torture and other ill-treatment while in detention, and he has regular, unrestricted access to his family, and lawyers of his choice.
