Violation of the discipline and rules of Chinese Communist Party
As an independent scholar who has never joined the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or its youth organizations, Dr. Chen Jingyuan, in his self-defense and accusation, accused the law enforcement officers of violating the Party’s rules and regulations. These violations primarily manifest themselves in the following areas:
1. Inappropriate Words and Actions and Ideological Attacks: During the trial, the law enforcement officers repeatedly rebuked and insulted him, accusing him of “eating Party food and slamming Party pots,” despite the fact that he is not a CCP member or public official. He found this both amusing and unsettling.
2. Improper Application of Party Discipline in Sentencing: Chen Jingyuan believes that the sentence was clearly based on the CCP’s Constitution and Party discipline, and that as a non-member, he should not be subject to these constraints.
3. Denial of the Party’s Lines, Principles, and Policies: Chen Jingyuan believes that the law enforcement officers’ actions fundamentally negate the CCP’s lines, principles, and policies, including those regarding the market economy, political system reform, comprehensive rule of law, comprehensive and strict Party governance, “One Country, Two Systems,” and “A Community with a Shared Future for Mankind.”
4. Violation of Party Discipline, Regulations, and Ideals: Chen Jingyuan accused law enforcement officers of failing to abide by the Party Constitution and Party oath as CCP members, failing to deeply understand the significance of the “two establishments” and failing to uphold the “two safeguards.” As public officials, they also failed to abide by their constitutional oath and failed to serve taxpayers (“their breadwinners”). He further accused law enforcement officers of: deliberately mystifying, speculating, sensationalizing, and playing tricks; of “judicially judging the leader’s intentions” and employing “low-level red, high-level black” tactics under the guise of “protecting the leader’s personal reputation”; of organizing “judicial mafia gangs,” of idleness, dereliction of duty, and reckless behavior, brutally suppressing legitimate citizens and taxpayers.
5. Betrayal of CCP Policies and Ideals: Chen Jingyuan believed that the actions of law enforcement officers fundamentally negated the CCP’s established national policies, including the market economy, political system reform, comprehensive rule of law, comprehensive and strict Party governance, “one country, two systems,” and the “community of a shared future for mankind,” constituting a “complete betrayal and reaction” to the CCP’s ideals and cause.
