Human Rights in China Urgent Appeal: concerning young human rights defender Kwon Pyong, who is currently risking his life to seek political asylum in South Korea by motorboat. Kwon was arrested 7 years ago for denouncing dictator Xi Jinping publicly and sentenced to 1.5 years in prison after being convicted on the charge of "inciting subversion of state power." Based on various sources, he is currently in danger of being deported after he was arrested by the Incheon Marine Police Department in South Korea and transferred to the prosecution.
Kwon is a dissident who bravely resisted the the CCP's tyranny. He was arrested and sentenced only because he exercised the freedom and rights that the Chinese people should have. After being released from prison, he was also prohibited from leaving the country and subjected to harassment and persecution. He had no choice but to venture 300km across the sea to seek political asylum in South Korea. HRIC calls on the South Korean government to help Kwon Pyong for humanitarian reasons, by granting him political asylum or letting him go to a third country.
中国人权紧急呼吁:关注青年人权捍卫者权平,他目前自驾摩托艇冒险前往韩国寻求政治庇护。七年前权平因为公开斥责独裁者习近平而被捕,被控“煽动颠覆国家政权”,判刑一年半。综合各方消息,目前他在被韩国仁川海洋警察署逮捕后移送检方,可能面临被遣返的危险。 权平是勇敢反抗中共暴政的异议人士,他被捕判刑,仅仅因为他行使捍卫中国人应有的自由和权利,出狱之后也被禁止离境,继续遭受骚扰迫害,他迫不得已才冒险渡海三百公里去韩国寻求政治庇护。中国人权呼吁韩国政府出于人道主义给予权平帮助,允许他寻求政治庇护或者前往第三国。
