【新唐人2013年07月31日讯】昆明中美人权对话 北京处理访民
中、美第18次人权对话，7月30号至31号在云南昆明市举行，根据美国国务院发言人上周五通报的消息，双方将在对话活动期间，探讨法治、宗教信仰自由、言论自由、劳工权利、少数民族权利，以及其他人权话题。美国代表团还将访问北京，同官员和民间社会的代表举行讨论。
据中国《权利运动》网站报导，北京关押访民的黑监狱——“马家楼”，7月30号有超过3000名访民被清空，大部分交给地方政府带回当地。
报导说，在“非敏感时期”，如此大规模清场，估计与云南昆明中、美人权对话结束，美国副国务卿乌兹拉•泽亚一行，将进京考察有关。
另外，已经在外交部门口坚守40天，要求参与撰写“中国人权报告”的请愿访民，恐怕也会被清场。不过，《权利运动》报导说，30号，自愿到外交部门口坚守的访民人数略有增加。
长沙千人示威反发射塔 遭暴力驱散
7月29号，湖南长沙市上千居民，冒着40度的高温，到市政府集会抗议，要求撤销《湖南省广播电台》兴建中波发射塔的项目。
据了解，湖南广播电台203台计划在长沙市芙蓉区兴建高强电磁辐射中波发射塔，由于发射塔距离周围居民小区不到200米、环境评价报告等手续不透明，当地民众担忧遭受辐射，危害身体健康。
抗议民众身穿白色T恤在长沙市政府大楼前静坐。他们还打着写有“拒绝辐射 塔建人亡”、“不愿成为下一个癌症村”等内容的横幅。
当局出动数百警察暴力清场，多人被打伤，十多人被抓捕。
滕彪：拘留许志永使温和派趋激烈
大陆维权人士滕彪，7月29号在香港举行记者会，批评中共当局刑事拘留北京法律学者许志永。
滕彪表示，许志永一直坚持合法、和平、理性、非暴力的原则从事维权工作，希望能够在中共体制内用法律框架维护公民权利，中共当局拘留许志永，表明连这种理性温和的维权思路也不能走下去。
滕彪认为，中共当局刑事拘留许志永，只会让外界对中共体制完全失去信心，使温和派转向激进。
身为法学博士的滕彪，日前与北京维权人士胡佳在深圳为胡佳庆祝生日时，被当局怀疑串谋声援许志永，而被带走问话近3个小时。

While China-US Talk Rights, Beijing Lets Out Petitioners.
The 18th China-US dialogue on human rights is being held
in Kunming, Yunnan province from July 30 to 31.
On July 26, U.S. State Department spokesman said that
during the dialogue, both sides would discuss monocracy,
religious freedom, freedom of speech, labor rights,
minority rights and other human rights topics.
The U.S. delegation will also visit Beijing to have meeting
with officials and civil community representatives.
The Chinese Rights Movement website reported that,
on July 30, Majialou, a black jail in Beijing where petitioners
were detained, had released over 3000 petitioners.
Most petitioners were handed over to their local governments
and taken to their hometowns.
The report said that during this sensitive period,
the authorities released petitioners on large scale.
It speculates that the move relates to U.S. deputy secretary
of state, Uzra Zeya.
The delegation will go to Beijing to investigate
after talks finish in Kunming and Yunnan.
In addition, petitioners who had protested outside of Chinese
Ministry of Foreign Affairs (CMFA) for 40 days, will probably be dispersed.
However, Rights Movement reported that, on July 30,
the number of protesters outside the CMFA office increased.
Thousands Protest Changsha Transmission Tower Project
On July 29, in Changsha, Hunan province, thousands of citizens
gathered outside city hall to protest in 40°C degree temperature.
They demanded the authorities to cancel the building project
of a transmission tower which was being built by Hunan Radio.
Sources say that Hunan Radio channel 203 planned to build a
high-intensity electromagnetic radiation wave transmission tower in Furong district, Changsha city.
Because the tower is within 200 meters of the residential area
and the environmental evaluation report isn’t transparent,
residents are worried about radiation effects on their health.
Protesters sat in front of a government building
wearing white T-shirts, and held banners which read:
‘refuse radiation, people will die if the tower is built,’ ‘we don’t
want to become another cancer village,’ among other banners.
The authorities sent several hundred police to disperse protesters.
Several people were injured, dozens were arrested.
Teng Biao: Detaining Scholar Made Moderate Faction Fiercer
On July 29, Mainland Chinese civil right activist, Teng Biao,
held a press conference in Hong Kong.
He criticized the Chinese regime for detaining Beijing
legal scholar Xu Zhiyong.
Teng said that Xu had been insisting on the rights to a legal,
peaceful, rational, non-violent way to do his civil rights work.
Xu hopes to use legal rights to protect citizens within
the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) system.
The CCP detained Xu. It shows that this soft approach
couldn’t happen.
Teng said that by the CCP detaining Xu, it only made the
public completely lose their confidence in the CCP system.
It only can make moderate factions fiercer.
As a Doctor of Law, Teng Biao recently celebrated
Beijing activist Hu Jiao’s birthday in Shenzhen.
Teng was taken away by police and held for three hours
on the suspicion of supporting Xu Zhiyong.
