4.12全球連線-要求釋放中國女權行動者@香港行動 Hong Kong Action

為響應「全球要求釋放女權行動者」緊急呼籲,我們將於周日(4月12日)在 旺角行人專用區進行行動,喚起更大社會聲音,要求釋放中國女權行動者!

曾經,在3月21日我們發起過「要求中國政府立即釋放女權人士!」行動,直接前往中聯辦向中共政權要求放人,收集得全球聯署有2,500個簽名,當中不少是各地婦女、性/别、人權團體、工會、民間團體、學者、學生及市民。

可惜至今,五名女權行動者(武嶸嶸、韋婷婷、王曼、鄭楚然、李婷婷)的刑事拘留雖已超過法定的一個月期限,但没有任何一人被釋放。而到第37天,即北京時間4月13日(下星期一),按法例檢察院將最後確認是否正式逮捕她們

這刻,全世界都在關注,100多個國家近十萬人聯署要求釋放她們,英國、加拿大、歐盟已表態,希拉里、克林頓也通過Twitter發言,全球最重要的媒體都做了大篇幅報導。

我們,作為關注婦女、性別小眾權益、性別平權、勞工等人權議題的團體及個人責無旁貸。必須串連各地的改變力量,發出更强大的聲音,警告中共停止逼害女權行動者,也向看守所中的五名女權行動者傳遞關心和慰問,以鼓舞她們以及所有中國內地女權行動者。

來吧!本周日行動,我們需要您的參與和支持:

Take Action on April 12!

In response to An Urgent Calling for Global Action: Protest in Front of Chinese Embassies for Detained Chinese Feminists, we are going to launch a protest at the Mongkok pedestrian zone to demand the immediate release of the Chinese feminists.

On 21 March in Hong Kong, we launched a protest to the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the HKSAR and submitted the 2500 signatures from individuals and 77 organizations, including women, sexuality and human rights NGOs, Trade Unions, local organizations, scholars, students and citizens from all over the world.

Until now, the detention of the five feminists (Wu Rongrong, Wei Tingting, Li Tingting, Wang Man and Zheng Churan) has surpassed the 30 day limit while no one has been released. According to their lawyer, the police has decided on sending their case to prosecutors for formal arrest. Until the 37th day since the detention, that is April 13 Monday (Beijing time) the Procuratorate will decide whether to prosecute them formally.

The whole world is watching. More than 100,000 people from more than 100 countries are asking for their release. Many NGOs, women’s rights groups and governments of the US, the UK, Canada and the EU representative have called for their release. Notable figures like Hilary Clinton and Samantha Power have also spoken out n their behalf. Important international media sources have been spreading the news.

We, as individual and concern groups for women, sexual minorities, gender equality, workers (etc.) human rights need to stay in solidarity with the five women activists. In order to give stronger voices to join hands coalition from all over the world to warn the Chinese authorities from persecuting women’s rights defenders. We also would like to send our kind regards and encouragement to the detained feminists in the Mainland.

This Sunday, we need you to show your stand and give your support to the detained women activists.

Date: 12 April (Sunday)
Time: 13:00 – 15:00
