Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei, who was sentenced to 11 months’ imprisonment for “illegally crossing the border”, appealed against his conviction, citing irregularities and procedural flaws in the trial, which was held closed-door. Lu’s health condition is worrying.

Human rights lawyer #LuSiwei has been detained for 9 months, in addition to 3 months of detention in 2023. Yet, Chenghua District Court in Chengdu, Sichuan province, still hasn’t confirmed any trial date. It’s really painful and frustrating for his wife and other relatives.

Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei has been detained since 10 October 2024. His health condition is not good. His lawyer visited him yesterday. He's still suffering from psoriasis. Constipation and diarrhea. Not allowed to take imported medicine. Can't send letters to family.

Asian Lawyers Network (ALN) joined the intervention letter with The Law Society of England and Wales, International Bar Association's Human Rights Institute, Lawyers for Lawyers, Lawyers' Rights Watch Canada, The Rights Practice, The 29 Principles to express our grave concern about the arrest and detention of Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei.

@CECCgov RT by @benedictrogers: Rights lawyer #LuSiwei fled China to join his family in the US when he was detained in Laos and later deported at the PRC’s request. @UN Member States should condemn his detention and refoulement and ask the PRC to stop exporting persecution globally. #FreeThemAll #UPR https://nitter.hongkongers.net/CECCgov/status/1748834285929275873#m

Schikanen wegen Menschenrechtsarbeit: Setzt Euch für den Menschenrechtsanwalt #LuSiwei ein, der wegen seines friedlichen Einsatzes für die Menschenrechte in der Provinz #Sichuan in #China willkürlich in Haft sitzt! https://www.amnesty.de/mitmachen/urgent-action/china-zurueckgefuehrter-menschenrechtsanwalt-haft-2023-10-30?j=197539&sfmc_sub=8711246&l=45_HTML&u=3117249&mid=536000658&jb=2001

Good to know that #LuSiwei has been released on bail. His wife Zhang Chunxiao has got his call.

Sad but expected. Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei, who was arrested by #Laos authorities in late July and repatriated to China in mid-September, is currently detained at Xindu Detention Center in Sichuan, according to his wife #ZhangChunxiao

If this is true, this is absolutely barbaric & totally heartbreaking #Laos must feel the full force of international outrage if it did send #LuSiwei back to #China Laos deports human rights lawyer who was fleeing state pressure back to China https://apnews.com/article/laos-deports-chinese-rights-lawyer-lu-siwei-f9e51bfb6ac374d67c888101b75a3349 https://nitter.hongkongers.net/benedictrogers/status/1702681766279188948#m

Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei, who helped the #HK12 when they were imprisoned in China, was repatriated by Laos to China last week. The international community should continue to call for his release so that he can reunite with his family in the US. https://www.rfa.org/english/news/china/laos-lawyer-09142023140433.html https://nitter.hongkongers.net/hkdc_us/status/1702679820352585837#m

Sadly, Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei was deported back to China, according to his lawyer in Laos. We should continue to put pressure on China, calling for his release.

Joined a protest w/ several organisations, incl. Japan Hong Kong Democracy Alliance, outside Laos Embassy in Tokyo today to express concern about Chinese lawyer #LuSiwei who was arrested by the Laotian police on 28 July 2023 when he was on his way to Thailand. He’s at risk of being deported to China.

Chinese lawyer #LuSiwei, who tried to help the #HK12, is still detained in Laos, where he was arrested in July while fleeing China.

There is yet no voice from the Japanese government and politicians about the arrest and disappearance of Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei in #Laos. As an important international player, #Japan should speak up on such transnational repression.

A personal message to support Chinese human rights lawyer #LuSiwei who is currently detained in Laos. Hope that more people, especially those in Asia, can speak up to support him.

Laos Should Release Chinese lawyer Lu Siwei Immediately! https://www.youtube.com/live/ApWAoVPu1eo?feature=share
