【新唐人2014年01月22日讯】备受关注的“北京大学”起诉前“北大”教授邹恒甫名誉侵权案,1月20号上午开庭审理。邹恒甫是国际知名的经济学家,也是“中央财经大学”教授。2012年8月,邹恒甫在微博指摘“北大”院长在某餐厅吃饭,“只要看到漂亮服务员,就会下手奸淫,教授主任也不例外。”但是后来邹恒甫把指责对像改为“少数教授”。
2012年8月21号,邹恒甫在实名认证的《新浪》微博上发表言论说,“北京大学”的院长、教授、系主任们,在“梦桃源饭店”吃饭时奸淫漂亮的女服务员。他说,“除了邹恒甫,北大淫棍太多。”
“北京大学”及北京“梦桃源”餐饮公司,以邹恒甫的微博言论侵害名誉权为由,2012年9月,先后将邹恒甫告上法院。
今年1月20号上午9点,北京海淀区法院对此进行了公开审理。邹恒甫没有出庭,由辩护律师代理。由于双方不同意调解,法院将对择日宣判。
邹恒甫的辩护律师,全国政协委员,中华全国律师协会副会长朱征夫告诉《新唐人》,他们的主要辩护意见之一是,“北大”不是适格的法律主体,不具备控告邹恒甫的主体资格。
前北大教授邹恒甫辩护律师朱征夫﹕“因为邹教授批评的是北大的少数教授,不是批评北大。北大的教授和北大,是两个不同的主体和不同的法律关系。所以真正要告邹教授,也应该是少数教授来告,而不是北大来告。所以北大,因为它不是邹教授批评言论的直接对像,所以它没有资格告邹恒甫教授。”
朱征夫的第二个主要辩护意见是,北大是行政主体,不是民事主体。没有名誉权。
朱征夫:“因为名誉权是一个民法中的私权,它只是民事主体才享有。那么在本案,北大不是民事主体,它是行政管理主体,它跟少数教授之间的关系,是管理和被管理的关系。所以北大不享有名誉权。因为它不享有名誉权,所以也不存在名誉侵权的问题。”
朱征夫特地强调,邹教授作为一个公民,他有批评权,监督权。
邹恒甫提交了一些已经公开的证据,来证明他微博中所说的情况。
20号开庭当天,邹恒甫发布消息说,“在这个腐败淫乱吃喝玩乐破坏中国神圣教育的时候,北大以学校的名义给少数淫棍打官司是多么的好笑啊。”
朱征夫表示,他们向法庭提交了已经公开的证据,以证明“北大少数教授”有生活作风和行为不端的问题。但是还有一部分材料没有提交。
朱征夫:“我们不提交的部分是北大的老师和学生举报给邹老师的材料,那些材料我们认为现在不宜公开,因为它会把事情搞的更加复杂。这些举报材料的真实性还有待核查。我们现在需要进一步验证。所以没向法院提交。”
在法庭进行审理的同一天,邹恒甫还在微博转发《中新社》2009年的一篇报导,题为“前北大副校长(表示):不想女儿被玩弄就别在国内读博士”。
这位前副校长在饭局上对友人说,就他从周围教授那里得到的消息,目前中国的博士导师,除了所有的著作都是男研究生效劳完成的,基本上都会在适当的时候找一、两个女博士生,而这些女博士生要想最后戴上博士帽,一定会把自己的身体献给博导们。他说,据他们“北大”教授圈内的统计,全国高校中,高达70%以上的女博士,被新中国的博导们传授“知识”的同时,也顺带被奸淫。
邹恒甫目前担任“世界银行”研究部终身高级经济学家、及“武汉大学”高级研究中心主任、“深圳大学”高级研究中心主任、“中央财经大学中国经济与管理研究院”院长、和“中央财经大学中国经济与管理研究院学术委员会”主席。他是1949年中共建政以来,首位进入美国“哈佛大学经济系”并获得“哈佛”经济学博士学位的中国大陆学生。
邹恒甫1998至2007年间,曾出任“北京大学光华管理学院”应用经济学系系主任。

Peking University Sues Former Professor for Online Weibo Post
A hearing for the defamation case of former Peking
University Professor Zou Hengfu took place on January 20.
Zou Hengfu is an internationally renowned economist and
a Professor of Central University of Finance and Economics.
In August 2012, a post by Professor Zou
on his Weibo alleged that the Peking University
faculty preyed on young staff at the restaurant.
He later referred to “a small number of professors and deans".
In a Sina Weibo post dated August 21, 2012, Zou Hengfu
stated that Peking University deans, professors, and
chairmen preyed on the waitresses at Mengtaoyuan.
Mengtaoyuan is a restaurant on the university campus.
He added that there are too many
lustful people in Peking University.
Both Peking University and the restaurant filed
lawsuits in September against Zou Hengfu.
This was on allegation of defamation in his Weibo post.
On January 20 at 9am, Beijing Haidian
District Court conducted a public hearing.
Zou Hengfu did not appear in court, but
was represented by his defense counsel.
The two sides did not agree on mediation,
so the court will choose a sentencing date.
Zou Hengfu’s lawyer, Zhu Zhengfu spoke to NTD.
One of their main defense points was that
Peking University is not an appropriate legal
body, and is not qualified to sue Zou Hengfu.
Zhu Zhengfu, defense attorney: “Professor Zou
criticized some professors at Peking University.
He did not criticize the University. Professors and the
University are two different identities and legal relations.
The ones to sue Professor Zou should
be those professors, not the University.
The University was not the direct object of Professor Zou’s
criticism, and thus not qualified to sue Professor Zou Hengfu."
Zhu Zhengfu’s second major defense point is that the Peking
University is an administrative body, and not a civil subject.
This body does not carry a reputation.
Zhu Zhengfu: “Defamation refers to private rights
in civil law, and are only enjoyed by a civil subject.
Being an administrative body, the relationship between
Peking University and a small number of professors
belongs to those managing and those managed.
Therefore, Peking University does
not enjoy the right of reputation.
Because it does not enjoy the right of
reputation, defamation is out of the question."
Zhu Zhengfu specially emphasized that Professor Zou,
as a citizen, has the right to criticize and supervise.
Zou Hengfu submitted some evidence that has been
made public, to back up his initial Weibo statement.
On the day of the hearing, Zou Hengfu issued a new post.
“In this era, when China’s sacred education is
being undermined by adulterous corruption and
entertainment, what an irony that Peking University
files lawsuit on behalf of those who are promiscuous."
Zhu Zhengfu says that they have submitted evidence to
the court, detailing the promiscuous lifestyle and misconduct
of those Peking University professors who were mentioned.
There is more evidence yet to be submitted.
Zhu Zhengfu: “Some evidence was provided
by staff and students of Peking University.
We don’t see it appropriate to present
it now, because of its complexity.
We still need time to further identify the authenticity of these
materials. That is why it is yet to be presented to the court."
During the date of the hearing, Zou Hengfu
also forwarded a 2009 article by China News.
It was entitled “Former Vice-Chancellor of Peking
University: If you don’t want your daughter being
molested, don’t let her study her Ph.D. in China."
This former Vice President revealed information to his friend
during dinner, according to the professors around him.
The doctoral advisors have all their
writings finished by the male students.
When appropriate, they will also
recruit a couple of female students.
These female students must devote their
body to the professor to get their diploma.
He added that internal estimation by professors
showed more than 70% of female Ph.D. students
have been raped while pursuing their degrees.
Zou Hengfu is a renowned economist, who has served at
the World Bank, Shenzhen University, Wuhan University
Department of Mathematical Economics and Finance,
and Central University of Finance and Economics.
He was the first Chinese Harvard doctoratal student in
economics since the Communist took the power in 1949.
Zou Hengfu was the Head of Guanghua School of
Management at Peking University between 1998 and 2007.
