A/HRC/19/58 ethnic Han male born on 20 April 1964; he is originally from Shaanxi. On 15 August 2006, Gao Zhisheng was placed in criminal detention by the public security authorities on suspicion of the crime of subverting State power, and on 21 September of that year he was arrested by order of the procuratorial authorities. On 22 December 2006, the Beijing First Intermediate People’s Court sentenced Gao, taking into account his meritorious service, to three years’ imprisonment and five years’ probation, and to one year’s deprivation of his political rights. Gao served his sentence and is now on probation in Beijing; when necessary, he occasionally stays at another location. For example, at the end of June 2009 he went to his family home in Shaanxi to pay his respects to deceased family members. 2. Concerning Choekyi Nyima. Since the reign of the Qianlong emperor during the Qing Dynasty in the eighteenth century, the entire process relating to the search for and determination of the Dalai Lama and the child reincarnation of the Panchen Lama as well as the sitting-in-bed ceremony of the latter has required the transmission of a detailed report by the local Tibetan government to the central Government, with authority for the final determination regarding the child reincarnation concentrated in the central Government. The drawing of lots from a golden urn has likewise become a historically established practice since that time. The Dalai Lama’s disregard for a historically established practice, his flouting of a religious ritual and his arrogating to himself the recognition of the socalled reincarnated Panchen Lama are illegal and devoid of any effect. They also show extreme disrespect for the Dalai Lama’s historic lineage. Choekyi Nyima, who, according to the foreign media is just an average Chinese boy belonging to the Tibetan ethnic minority, is in excellent health. China is a country governed by the rule of law, and citizens’ legitimate rights are protected by national legislation; Choekyi Nyima has not been placed under ―house arrest‖. He and his family are currently leading normal lives in Tibet, and he is receiving an excellent education. They have on numerous occasions said that they do not wish to have their normal lives disrupted in any way, and we should fully respect their wishes. The Chinese Government respectfully requests that the foregoing be reproduced in its entirety in a relevant document of the United Nations.‖ 154. In 2010, the Government transmitted four communications which could not be translated in time for inclusion in the 2010 annual report (A/HRC/16/48). 155. The first communication, dated 12 February 2010, could not be translated in time for inclusion in the present report either. 156. In the second communication, dated 25 February 2010, the Government provided information concerning two outstanding cases and the information provided was not considered sufficient to lead to their clarification. Its content is as follows: ―Zhou Yongjun, also known as Zhou Yazhou, is an ethnic Han male born on 15 September 1967; he was arrested on 8 May 2009. Accusing the defendant Zhou Yongjun with the crime of fraud, the People’s Procuratorate of Shehong County, Sichuan Province, brought charges before the Shehong County People’s Court; the Court held an open trial, in which it was found that: In May 2008, the defendant Zhou Yongjun, having learned that account No. 239-082258888 deposited with the Hang Seng Bank in Hong Kong and belonging to one Wang Xingxiang contained a large sum of money, addressed letters in the name of ―Wang Xingxiang‖ on three separate occasions to said bank requesting that the sum of 6 million Hong Kong dollars should be transferred from the account of Wang Xingxiang to the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) in Hong Kong and Citibank in Australia; in the three letters he altered the beneficiary’s address and telephone number. After an employee of the Hang Seng Bank in Hong Kong received the letters, an investigation revealed that the signature of ―Wang Xingxiang‖ on the letters differed from the signature on file with the bank and that the holder of the account in question was deceased; the account had been frozen by the courts, thereby blocking any requested transfers and thwarting Zhou’s fraudulent activity. The Shehong County People’s Court in Sichuan Province found that Zhou, with unlawful possession as his objective, used fabrication and 38
