【新唐人2013年12月04日讯】全球腐败排名 中国位列八十
专门观察政府腐败行为的全球组织“透明国际”,12月3号公布了最新的全球“腐败指数”,在177个国家和地区的排行榜中,中国排在第80位,综合评估得分为40分,排名甚至在突尼西亚、古巴、罗马尼亚、巴西、纳米比亚之后,说明中国依然是全球腐败问题严重的国家之一。
按照“透明国际”掌握的信息,2013年全球最清廉的国家是丹麦和纽西兰,亚洲地区最廉洁的是新加坡和香港,而朝鲜、索马里和阿富汗则被列为最腐败国家。
呼吁官员财产公示 刘萍案再审
就在“透明国际”为全球公布各国腐败程度排名的同一天,江西省新余市曾举牌要求官员公示财产的三位公民——刘萍、魏忠平、李思华,却被指控有罪,第二次接受庭审。
据“英国广播公司”《BBC》中文网报导,案件代理律师浦志强透露,当天的庭审,有非常严重的违反审判公正原则的情形,被告人和辩护人的合法权利都受到损害。
而法庭外也戒备森严,从各地赶往当地声援的律师受到骚扰,多名维权人士失踪。12位证人,则遭到警方事先监控或软禁,无法到达庭审现场为三名当事人出庭作证。
当天的庭审没有结果,计划12月4号再审。

据大陆维权律师刘晓原网上公布的消息,3号中午,苏州市虎丘区通安镇严山村拆迁户范木根的家中,突然闯进十几个身份不明者,殴打他的妻儿。范木根持刀捅伤两人,一人当场死亡,另一个死在医院。范妻右臂被打断骨头,正在医院治疗。
据《自由亚洲电台》报导,范木根的儿媳妇表示,冲突的起因是当时拆迁人员强行入屋,并用电棍殴打家人。
她说,五、六个人拿电警棍先打范木根的头,范妻看见不对,用手去挡了一下,手就被打断了。
刘晓原对《自由亚洲电台》表示,这起案件导致两死三伤,是国内非常罕见的抗拆大案。
目前,事件仍在调查中。

China Ranks 80 in Global Corruption Index
Transparency International is the global civil society body
leading the fight against corruption.
On Dec. 3, the 2013 corruption perceptions index which
measures the perceived levels of public sector corruption in
177 countries and territories was published.
China, with a assessment score of 40, ranks 80. Its position
falls behind Tunisia, Cuba, Romania, Brazil and Namibia.
This indicates that China is still a seriously corrupt country.
According to Transparency International 2013 analysis, the
world’s least corrupt countries are Denmark and New Zealand.
Singapore and Hong Kong are the least corrupt ones in Asia.
North Korea, Somalia and Afghanistan are the most
corrupt countries.
Liu Ping Appeals Over Trial For Asking Officials To
Declare Their Property Interests
On the day when Transparency International published its
corrupt countries rankings of 2013, three Chinese citizens in
Jiangxi, Liu Ping, Wei Zhongping, and Li Sihua, were on trial
for calling on officials to make their property declarations.
BBC Chinese report revealed that the defendants’ attorney
Pu Zhiqiang said fair trial principles were seriously violated
and the legal rights of the legal counsel and defendants were
compromised on the day of the trial.
The court was heavily guarded outside.
Lawyers coming to show solidarity to the victims were
harassed, and many activists were missing.
The 12 witnesses, either under surveillance or house arrest
by the police, cannot get to the courtroom to testify.
As a result, the court was adjourned. A retrial
is planned on Dec. 4.
Two Died At Suzhou Demolition Conflict
On Dec. 3, serious conflict occurred during forced demolitions
in Suzhou National New & Hi-tech Industrial Development
Zone. Two demolition officers were killed and three residents
were injured.
Human rights lawyer Liu Xiaoyuan published the news online.
At noon more than a dozen unidentified people broke into Fan
Mugen’s home to evict them, beating his wife and children.
Fan Mugen stabbed two people; one of them died at the scene.
The other died in the hospital.
His wife’s right arm was broken and she’s in the hospital.
Radio Free Asia reported, according to Fan Mugen’s
daughter-in-law that the conflict arose when the demolition
team went into the house attacking them with electric batons.
She said five or six of them were hitting Fan’s head
with the electric batons.
Fan’s wife tried to stop them with her hands,
and her arm was broken.
Liu Xiaoyuan told Radio Free Asia that this case, resulting in
two deaths and three injuries, is a rarely seen major anti-
demolition case.
At present, the incident is still under investigation.
