Screening of Forced Confessions with Maziar Bahari

Highlighting the heightened censorship and the situation of journalists in Iran, the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran hosted a screening of Iranian-Canadian director Maziar Baharis film Forced Confessions in a joint event with the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) and the PEN American Center on May 8 in New York.

As part of the sold-out event, hundreds of New Yorkers participated in a question-and-answer session about censorship in Iran with Bahari, Executive Director of CPJ Joel Simon, and world-famous political satirist Jon Stewart of The Daily Show.

One woman thanked Jon Stewart for his support of human rights in Iran, and asked him why he had chosen to support this cause. Stewart responded with the story of how he came to know Maziar Bahari-when Baharis interrogators in Irans Evin Prison used footage from a spoof interview with The Daily Show as proof that Bahari was a spy for the CIA. So, Jewish guilt? Stewart summed it up, drawing laughter from the full auditorium.

The event opened with an introduction by Suzanne Nossel, executive director of PEN America, describing Baharis arrest, imprisonment, and torture at the hands of Iranian security forces. During Baharis imprisonment, he was forced to make false confessions, which were broadcast throughout Iran. After his release, he made Forced Confessions, which was screened for the first time in New York at the May 8 event. Exposing what Bahari calls the Iranian regimes attempt to legitimize its rule through force, the documentary film follows six writers, journalists, and scholars who were similarly tortured and forced to issue false confessions.

Following the film screening, Sherif Mansour of CPJ updated the audience on the current situation of journalists in Iran and the pre-election crackdown that has escalated in recent months. He showed a short video, made by IranWire, documenting the 40 journalists currently imprisoned in Iran.

Hadi Ghaemi, executive director of the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran, then presented an overview of the situation of human rights in Iran, especially regarding journalists and the upcoming June presidential election. Jon Stewart then held a conversation with Maziar Bahari and Joel Simon about censorship in Iran, citizen journalism, the bureaucratic nature of repression, and the current climate of caution surrounding the upcoming presidential election, among other topics.

In addition to New York, the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran has screened Forced Confessions in Washington DC, Brussels, and Berkeley, and will be showing it in more cities in the coming months.

(Corrects description of Sun Weis grandfather in third paragraph.)

Why did Chinas leading social-media platform recently ban users from performing searches for a woman poisoned in 1995? Attempts to answer that question -- and to censor the answers -- have sparked some of the most politically potent online commentary on Chinese leadership, privilege and corruption in recent memory.

The details of the almost two-decade-old case are sordid and murky. In 1995, Zhu Ling was a promising undergraduate at Beijings elite Tsinghua University when she came down with a mysterious illness that was thought to be poisoning via thallium, a toxic element once used as rat poison. This finding soon led to a suspect: Sun Wei, a roommate of Zhus who happened to be one of the few undergraduates at Tsinghua to have access to thallium in a laboratory.

Most important for the politically minded Chinese netizen, Sun Wei was the granddaughter of a high-ranking official who was thought to be close to then-President Jiang Zemin. In 1997, Sun was detained by police for questioning for eight hours but not arrested. Soon after, the case was closed, and Sun reportedly fled to the U.S., where its rumored shes married with kids (enterprising microbloggers have tried to keep tabs).

Meanwhile, Zhu, permanently disabled, lives with two elderly parents ill-suited to care for someone that Hong Kongs South China Morning Post described as a 200-pound, paralyzed, diabetic, almost-blind woman with the mental capacity of a six-year-old.

Over the last month, the tale has re-emerged as a populist cause celebre. The trigger was the early April fatal poisoning of a student at Shanghais Fudan University by another student, which evoked memories of the 1995 incident. Over the course of April, Zhus name became an increasingly popular topic of conversation and a proxy for anger at official privilege. Few offenses inspire Chinese online ire like the use of privilege -- especially by children of those in power -- to avoid the consequences of criminal behavior.

Its not clear that anyone intervened in Zhus case, but that hardly matters in a China accustomed to rumor. Zhus angry and media-savvy supporters -- long-stymied in their efforts to have the investigation reopened -- quickly rallied online support.

On April 29, Zhang Jie, lawyer to Zhu and her family, posted this tweet to Sina Weibo (it has subsequently been deleted):

In traditional Chinese culture we not only say the same rules apply to everyone even if he is a prince, but we also say senior officials have the privilege of avoiding criminal penalties. This kind of contradiction appears in the Zhu Ling case. We want to capture the murderer and convict her (or him) of the crime, but the key fact of this case is that when oral testimony is needed, senior officials have the privilege to avoid it; after the prince breaks the law, the fact is there isnt enough evidence to prove that he violated the law. These unspoken rules for protecting officials have existed in China for thousands of years, and we are challenging them.

That challenge was soon met by Sina Weibos censors, who -- over the past 10 days -- became progressively more aggressive in managing, and censoring, the conversation about Zhu Ling. Its impossible to know for certain whether this was proactive censorship that anticipated government orders or whether it was implemented at the explicit direction of the authorities. But from the standpoint of Sina Weibos users, the government appeared to be involved.
