Sienese whereabouts were unknown for six months later he was transferred to a regular Detention Center and jailed for two years after his release he wrote to detailed account of the secret detention even had his license to practice law but he is do refusing to keep quiet. Another man has refused to keep quiet is peter a swedish activist who was himself detained in beijing and now trucks forced in peter good to have you with us now you were yourself detained trying to sixteen why and more importantly how were you treated after a detention. Yeah thats correct i was taken in early Two Thousand And Sixteen quiet late in the evening by the Ministry Of State Security along with my girlfriend and also number of colleagues around china. I was placed into this
system called aristide or residential surveillance at a designated location unlike most however i would be spent twenty three days inside i was standing poured which is unusual as most people spend up to six months inside the system. Now youve been running a platform since a Twenty Sixteen that monitors these detentions what have you found in that time well its always a bit uncomfortable talking about my own experience even though i underwent mental torture of sorts because most victims of this system usually lawyers dissidents and journalists undergo a combination of physical and mental torture and tend to spend a full six months inside the system which is always done in solitary confinement. So we can see patterns really. Where its a combination of torture is more or less guaranteed because the purpose of the
system is to hold you outside the normal legal system and have there ways that it can make you confess to any crimes were committed that you are alleged to have committed now you spoke of this as being outside of the normal legal system and that brings to mind this question china all this claims that its a country thats run under the rule for all how does this system that you just described square with that claim well in a sense this is and has been codify it into a law which is worrying because its the only time we see in a major nation legalize of sorts and force disappearance as. So it exists outside and side by side with the normal you dish will process the difference is that inside the system there is no supervision there is no court order involved your hell outside of say Police Station at the Detention Centers in what amounts to secret prisons and they have almost no limitations in the power they hold over you
since your disappeared. One of the reasons why torture is so rampant but in their own way they call it legal because they have written it into the legal code but according to International Law it is amounts to if systematically a crime against humanity be done in joining us. On this very important issue thank you very much for sharing your valuable insights on this thank you. Thank you. Im going to read the chart over to freedom is also facing the displeasure of the government oscar winning Bohemian Rhapsody profiles Freddie Mercury the lead singer of the Rock Band Queen you dont want to join our last week but several key scenes were caught we talked about that in a bit but first heres a quick peek at the for a. Very deserving no border guard what more do you need to know i made music. I want to give the
audience a song that they can perform. To live it. Up and install it on for go feed for that but i think it was because it is because of the studio for more on what exactly is a. Severe ash a total of three minutes is actually been cuss out of this film and its all the scenes that refer to Freddie Mercury sexuality so as the part when he tells his girlfriend that hes not straight when his male lover is introduced in the film and when the band performs wearing female clothes and now theres also muted scenes the very poignant scene where Freddie Mercury announces that hes got a thats when the dialogue was silenced and the subtitles were deleted now these are obviously key scenes of the film that really put Freddie Mercurys life and his often complicated relationship with his own sexuality into context and how are people reacting to this and if it got out of the house being quite
a big backlash in china especially among the Gay Community as you can imagine now there is a strict approval process in china for any film but people who have seen this film that has been caught say. The edits have weakened the film they make it that much more confusing lets have a listen. To the way i feel that they Shouldnt Have deleted the content when it all just creates a film its finished if you delete that part people who are know about the store. If the main characters Love Life People will know about his wife but they wont know he also had this relationship with his mother. Or is it usual for. Such as these to be hundred of them this week for in Movies Enjoyment yeah it is it is usual direction in films with. Dont even make it on to the cinemas in china the Communist Party has twice and regulation of the major in entertainment so restrictions are getting increasing and you have to remember china only
decriminalized homosexuality in One Thousand Nine Hundred Seven and gay marriage is still illegal but what really struck me was when Rami Malik Who portrayed. Pretty much free in this film he gave his speech at the oscars and when he used the word gay man that was changed in the subtitles to Special Group so essentially to leasing out the fact that there are gay people thanks so much for updating us on that on a couple of macand then were going to have to leave it all.
