【新唐人2014年06月18日讯】大陆律师发起罢免“律协”会长联署
6月17号,一批中国律师在网路上发起联署签名,抗议大陆“全国律师协会”将出台配合政府打压律师的《律师执业行为规范》和《律师协会会员违规行为处分规则》,并且要求罢免“全国律师协会”会长王俊峰。
联署信中说,“全国律协”无视律师的基本作用,违背宪法法律修改《律师执业行为规范》和《律师协会会员违规行为处分规则》,并加入大量侵犯律师执业权利、公民权利和政治权利的条款,“律协”已经从律师权利保护者的行业自治协会,沦为打压律师正当权利的帮凶,而会长王俊峰对此应当负有直接责任。
今年初以来,律师被任意羁押事件不断,从东北建三江警察殴打及拘捕律师事件,到本周发生在徐州的警方扣留会见当事人的律师事件,都在律师界引起强烈反响。
联署签名活动得到众多律师的响应。
