Ahead of the sentencing hearing in 2023, a prewritten statement from #DingJiaxi 👇

⌛️#HumanRightsDay Countdown: Lawyer #DingJiaxi is serving a 12-yr sentence for advocating #RuleOfLaw and civil rights in 🇨🇳. His wife, activist #SophieLuo, has repeatedly raised the alarm over being denied her right to communicate with him.
🔗 www.nchrd.org/2013/10/pris...

Lawyer #DingJiaxi is serving a 12-year sentence for subversion. The #China govt has failed to present any evidence substantiating the burden of proof—or to the #UN to support its denial of torture and ill-treatment.
spcommreports.ohchr.org/TMResultsBas...

Human rights lawyer #DingJiaxi is still under tight control even in prison. His wife reported that no phone calls and books allowed.

From Ms. Luo Shengchun, wife of imprisoned lawyer #DingJiaxi, a Valentine’s Day message:

"Miles apart, yet our longing never ends.
Oppression crushes our rights, bitterness fills our days.
But we have love, light, and flowers—we have everything."

5 years ago today, #ChinaGov arrested human rights lawyer #DingJiaxi & subjected him to #RSDL with #torture. After extended detention, the court sentenced him to 12 years for #subversion on Apr 10, 2023. The prison continues denying his right to family calls.

As many celebrate Christmas/end-of-year, inspiring activists #DingJiaxi and #XuZhiyong remain in jail 5 years after the Chinese government's egregious 'Xiamen Crackdown' on 26 December 2019.

@ishrglobal.bsky.social stands in solidarity with them & will continue fighting for their prompt release.

5 yrs after the #Xiamen crackdown, #Beijing brutally punishes those who exercise their fundamental rights. #XuZhiyong, #DingJiaxi, and #ZhangZhongshun remain unjustly imprisoned on the charge of "subversion" for peaceful assembly.

Cards For Rights|全球公民和你寫 The 12.26 Xiamen gathering case has reached its 5th year, and ta are still fighting for their civil rights. ta are: Xu Zhiyong and Ding Jiaxi, who are serving their prison sentences, and Zhang Zhongsh...

#XuZhiyong #DingJiaxi

2/4 The EU also calls for the immediate + unconditional release of other political prisoners in China like #GulshanAbbas, #AnyaSengdra, #EkparAsat, #ChadrelRinpoche, #ChenPinlin, #ChenYunfei, #RahileDawut, #DingJiaxi, #DingYuande, #GaoZhisheng, #GoSherabGyatso, #GologPalden, #HeFangmei, #HuangQi,

Just so sad. Comparable to the long sentences that we see in China. Like legal scholar #XuZhiyong and human rights lawyer #DingJiaxi who were sentenced to 14 years and 12 years respectively.

As China sentences prominent dissidents, others protest behind bars Analysts say sentencing of human rights lawyer Yu Wensheng and his wife, Xu Yan, create chilling effect within China’s dissident community

Thanks William Yang for the report. So worried about #YuWensheng, #XuYan #XuZhiyong, #DingJiaxi and all the other friends.

'#XuZhiyong, 50, and #DingJiaxi, 55, were put on trial behind closed doors in June last year on charges of state subversion...

Xu and Ding are prominent figures in the #NewCitizensMovement...'
