八九民運期間事跡及遭遇 Deeds and encounters during the 1989 Democracy Movement
八九民運期間,擔任湖南「邵陽市工自聯」主席,發動工人遊行、示威,聲援北京學生。
「六四」屠殺後,被以「反革命宣傳煽動罪」判刑13年,獄中受盡酷刑。
2001年,因堅持爭取民主及為所受的酷刑追討公道,被以「煽動顛覆國家政權罪」判刑10年。2011年出獄時,已被虐待至失聰失明,惡疾纏身。
2012年「六四」前夕,李旺陽接受香港傳媒訪問。訪問播出後,他於6月6日被發現在醫院窗口離奇吊頸身亡,但雙腳著地,死因疑點重重。
妹妹李旺玲被當局通知指哥哥「自殺」。6月9日,在沒有家人簽字同意下,遺體被匆匆火化,有毀屍滅跡之嫌。
During the 1989 Democracy Movement, Li served as the chairman of Shaoyang City Workers’ Union in Hunan and initiated worker demonstrations to support Beijing students.
After the June 4th Massacre, he was sentenced to 13 years in prison for “Counter-revolutionary propaganda and incitement” and was tortured in prison.
As he insisted on fighting for democracy and seeking justice for torture suffered, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2001 for “inciting subversion of state power”. When he was released from prison in 2011, he was deaf and blind and suffered many maladies due to prison abuse.
On the eve of June 4th in 2012, Li Wangyang was interviewed by Hong Kong media. After the interview was aired, he was found hanging from window in hospital on June 6th. His feet were on the ground. The cause of death was suspicious.
Li’s sister, Li Wangling, was informed by the authorities that her brother had “committed suicide”. On June 9th, without the signature or consent of the family, the body was hurriedly cremated, a suspected act of obliterating evidence.
李旺陽的說話 Li Wangyang’ s quote
為了國家早日進入民主社會,為了中國早日實現多黨制,我就是砍頭,我也不回頭!
For the country to become a democratic society soon, and for the realization of a multi-party system in China soon, even if I am beheaded, I’ll never regret!
——李旺陽 Li Wangyang
