陳前總統被暫時強迫失蹤：Enforced disappearance of former President Chen Sui-bian by MYJ

Enforced disappearance of former President Chen Sui-bian by MYJ

Enforced Disappearance is a legal measure of Chinese criminal law; citizens of the People’s Republic of China could be arrested, transported to any place without noticing their family members and lawyers.  That is one of the worst “legal” practices in the world.
The notable case was Bo Xi-lai, who was forced to disappear in the spring of 2012.  No one has seen him ever since.  Is Bo alive now?  Is he treated inhumanely?  The outside world is totally ignorant of the former official’s condition.

But today we realize that forced disappearance is not absent from Taiwan either.
Under Ma Ying-jeou’s rule, Taiwan’s Ministry of Justice transported former President Chen Sui-bian, who was sentenced imprisonment for corruption and was treated in the Taipei Veteran General Hospital for months, to elsewhere before the break of the day without noticing his family members or even his doctor.
The Ministry sent a cell phone message to his doctor Chou only after Chen had already left the Hospital.  Chen’s family members could not find Chen until the Ministry held a press conference.  Before that, no one was sure if Chen was executed in secret.
The whole story looks like the replay of 38-year-long Martial Law initiated in 1949 in Taiwan.
President Ma Ying-jeou, a person who raised high the Chinese Nationalism the first day he took the office, is the one to blame.

On April 18^th, MYJ ordered his Minister of Justice to execute 6 prisoners, despite the fact that two day earlier he had signed International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, and met Miss Florence Bellivier, a Chairperson of the World Coalition Against the Death Penalty, WCADP as well as deputy secretary general of La Fédération internationale des ligues des Droits de l’Homme, FIDH.[1]
It seemed that MYJ is showing off his authority, at the cost of human lives, to anyone who dared to interfere.
