【禁闻】北京抓捕“脱北者”时机敏感

【新唐人2014年07月25日讯】中共当局最近抓捕了20名从朝鲜逃离出来的民众,和6名帮助他们的人士。部分国际媒体加以关注。报导说,这些“脱北者”面临着被遣返朝鲜。而韩国政府也希望北京当局能够释放他们。在中共领导人习近平刚刚访问完韩国,中、韩关系升温的时刻,出现这样的事情,有什么特殊原因吗?请看详细报导。

《美国之音》和《自由亚洲电台》23号都报导了“脱北者”被中共抓捕的这条消息。这些逃离北朝鲜的人民,在中国的山东和云南被抓,他们是四个家庭,其中有一对60多岁的老夫妻,部分20多岁的年轻人和一名1岁的婴儿。一同被抓的是帮助他们逃离的五名中国向导,和一名已经逃到韩国定居的原朝鲜逃亡者。

据了解,北京和平让之间有遣返所谓非法越境者的协议,舆论估计这批“脱北者”被遣返的可能性很大。报导说,他们很可能会先被押往中、朝边境的图们市拘留所,然后被遣返回朝鲜。

韩国官方正在了解详情,并积极营救,他们希望北京释放这些“脱北者”。韩国政府根据保护人权和人道主义的原则,要求中方能允许这些“脱北者”到韩国定居。

但北京的态度却显示“非常不愿意释放这些朝鲜人”。

7月上旬,中共领导人习近平刚刚访问完韩国,中、韩媒体大量报导中、韩关系升温。

大陆时政观察人士陈明慧分析,中共高层的权斗造成现在的局势非常敏感,他说,上海-江系的大本营,至今已经实行了一个月的空中军事管制,此时发生抓捕“脱北者”,恐怕与权斗升级有关。

大陆时政观察人士陈明慧:“脱北者现在是落到中国大陆谁的派系?是习的这一派的,因为习他前一段时间刚访问过韩国,我相信他一定是做出友好的举动,但是如果说在这个江系手里,这个事情可能也会闹大,会搞得很难堪,会故意给习下不了台。”

朝鲜的法律规定,逃亡者至少将被关押在集中营里5年,有些将被终身监禁,还有些会被处死。据成功逃出朝鲜的民众证实:很多被遣返的“脱北者”被枪决,甚至包括孕妇。而且“脱北者”一旦被遣返,将受到非常不人道的待遇,如:用铁丝穿透他们的锁骨来防止他们逃跑。

中共建政以来,对逃离北朝鲜的民众实行抓捕和遣返,对此国际社会一直强烈谴责。

大陆博客作家刘逸明:“中共当局做这样的事情太没有人性,因为中共为了维持与金家王朝的关系,北朝鲜政权怎么想,中共就怎么做,否则它觉得可能会丢掉这个小兄弟。”

目前全世界仅剩中共、朝鲜、古巴等几个共产党国家。朝鲜第一代领导人金日成,是在苏共和中共的扶持下夺取的政权,和中共是苏共在中国建立的一个远东支部类似。

刘逸明分析,从历史上看,上世纪8-90年代,大批东德人因为逃亡到西德,促成了东德共产政权的解体,以及鼓舞了东欧和原苏联民众争取自由。

刘逸明:“一个独裁政权如果它的民众都逃得差不多了,它这个政权也就土崩瓦解,所以共产政权只要把人困在国内,这些人为了生活他必须得做事,政府就可以剥削你,官员的日子才能好过,它的政权才能够维系。”

韩国民间团体“拯救脱北者协会”日前透露,有可能是中共允许朝鲜保卫部在中国境内跟踪这些“脱北者”,才使他们在山东和云南两个城市几乎同时被抓。

Beijing Arrest Defectors From North Korea

The Chinese Communist authorities recently arrested
20 people fleeing from North Korea, as well as six people
who had assisted their escape.

International media reported that these defectors may face
being deported back to North Korea.
The South Korean government expressed their hopes that
Beijing would release them.
As Xi Jinping has just finished his visit in South Korea,
China and South Korea relations seem to be warming.
What are the implications of this incident’s timing?
Here’s our report.

Both Voice of America and Radio Free Asia reported
on July 23 about the capture of the North Korean defectors
in China’s Shandong and Yunnan.

A group of four families, including a couple in their 60s,
some youth at their 20s, and a one year old child.
Five Chinese guides and one former North Korean escapee
already settled in South Korea were also arrested.

It is believed that according to the treaty of repatriation
of illegal border crossers between Beijing and Pyongyang,
the defectors will likely be sent back to North Korea.

The media reports say they will likely be detained in Tumen
City at the border and then be deported back to North Korea.

South Korean authorities are trying to get more details
on the situation and working on rescue efforts.
They’ve expressed hopes that Beijing will release the escapees
and allow them to settle in South Korea according to
the principles of human rights and humanitarianism.

But Beijing’s has been very reluctant to release them.

Chinese president Xi Jinping had just finished visiting Korea
in early July.
The extensive media coverage in both Korea and China
hyped up the warming relations between the two countries.

Politics watcher Chen Minghui says the infighting happening
within the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is very sensitive.
Chen says that with the month-long air traffic control
taking place in Shanghai, Jiang Zemin’s power center,
and the arrest of the defectors happening during
the same time period is a sign the elevating power struggle.

Chen Minghui: “It depends on who controls the defectors’ fates.

If it’s Xi Jinping’s faction, his previous visit to South Korea
could trigger a friendly gesture.
But, if Jiang’s faction controls these defectors,
they might make it into a big deal to embarrass Xi Jinping."

The laws in North Korea state that fugitives may be detained
for at least five years in a concentration camp,
or may even face life imprisonment or execution.

Many people who’ve managed to escape North Korea confirm
that many repatriated defectors have been shot to death,
including pregnant women.

Repatriated defectors also face inhuman treatment, such as
having wires pierced through their collarbones
to prevent them from escaping.

Since its establishment, the CCP’s regime has continued
to arrest and repatriate North Korean refugees,
despite strong condemnation by the international community.

Liu Yiming, mainland Chinese blog writer: “The CCP is truly
inhumane to do such a thing, simply to maintain its
relationship with North Korea’s Kim dynasty; they follow
its whims, otherwise, they might lose this ‘little brother.'"

Currently, China, North Korea, Cuba, and a few others are
among the few remaining Communist Countries.
The North Korea regime’s first generation leader Kim Il Sung
seized power with the support of the Soviet Communist Party
and the CCP, just like how the CCP was established
as a Far East branch in China by the Soviet Communist Party.

Liu Yiming says that the historical collapse of East Germany’s
Communist regime was due to large numbers of East Germans
fleeing to West Germany during the 80’s and 90’s.

This had encouraged the people of Eastern Europe
and the former Soviet Union to fight for freedom.

Liu Yiming: “A dictatorial regime will collapse
when its people have escaped.
So the Communist regimes trap people in their own country.

To survive, people have to work, and the regime exploits them
as only in this way can it sustain its officials and its regime."

South Korea-based civic group North Korean Defectors
Association says that it’s possible the CCP allows North
Korea’s defense department to track the defectors and that’s
how they were almost simultaneously caught
in Shandong and Yunnan provinces.

International media are paying attention to how the high level
infighting in the CCP will affect these defectors’ destinies.
