案件簡介:謝文飛是其中一名「南方街頭運動」踐行者,在2014年香港的雨傘運動時,公開支持香港的示威者。2016年4月,當局以煽動顛覆國家政權罪向他判刑4年半,「罪行」包括自2012年參與網上的民主運動,以不同的網名張貼有關自由、人權、六四、被關押人權份子的消息。在2014至2016年被拘捕期間,他被毆打和受到酷刑對待。近月來,因中國傳出新冠肺炎,他一直倡議疫情的消息要有透明度,並要求釋放因公佈疫情的吹哨者。

2020年8月27日,任全牛律師從湖南郴州市蘇仙區檢察院獲悉,謝文飛案件已移送同級法院起訴,並得知委託人謝文飛母親解除了兒子的律師委託。經向謝文飛家人核實,確定任全牛赴資興市看守所申請會見未果次日,就有當局人員去到謝文飛家中,以帶走謝父為要脅,逼迫謝母簽署解除律師委託聲明。這已是謝文飛家人第三次遭當局逼迫解除律師委託,前兩次是其胞兄委託的張磊和謝陽兩位律師先後遭解除。

在2020年4月29日被拘留前,他曾分享了一段視頻,聲明他絶不會在沒有自由的情況下自殺,以防被當局以自殺結案。

Description: Xie Wenfei has been active and known as one of the Southern Street Movement Activists and showed support to Hong Kong protestors during the Umbrella Movement in 2014. He was accused of “inciting subversion of state power” and sentenced to 4.5 years of imprisonment in April 2016. His “crimes” included being involved in pro-democracy Internet campaigns beginning in 2012, and using different online personas to post information about freedoms, human rights, June Fourth, and detained human rights defenders. Xie Wenfei was beaten up and subjected to torture during his detention between 2014 and 2016. In recent months, he has been calling for transparency and release of whistleblowers under the COVID-19 Pandemic.

On 27 August 2020, Ren Quanniu, the third lawyer hired by his family, learned from the Suxian District Procuratorate, that Xie’s case has been transferred to the court for indictment. He also learned that Xie’s mother has dismissed his legal representation for Xie. The lawyer confirmed with Xie’s family that on the next day after the Zixing City Detention Centre rejected Ren Quanniu’s application to visit Xie, the authorities pressured Xie’s mother to dismiss the lawyer, otherwise they would take away Xie’s father. It is the third time Xie’s family has been pressured by the authorities to dismiss a lawyer to represent Xie.

Shortly before his detention in April 2020, he shared a video as his public pledge against committing suicide to prevent “forced” suicide.
