无锡维权人士沈爱斌长期遭中共监视居住(2026.03.21)

「无锡维权人士沈爱斌长期遭中共监视居住(2026.03.21)」沈爱斌,江苏无锡人,曾服役十二年,转业后在城管系统担任领导职务。因长期目睹无锡当地强拆乱象与司法腐败,他毅然辞别安稳,走上维权之路,成为一名人权捍卫者与公民记者。

然而,坚守良知的代价极为惨烈。自2014年起,沈爱斌先后三次遭到枉法判刑,累计服实刑七年。2025年4月,他拖着伤病之躯走出溧阳监狱,身无分文。仅仅六个月后,同年10月30日,他再度被捕。

此次被捕的起因荒诞至极。10月27日,沈爱斌陪同他人前往派出所索取传唤证,仅因在大厅内援引法律条文说了一句”传唤证应当给当事人”,便遭副所长戴沣指使人员殴打,致双侧鼻骨骨折。施暴者非但未受追究,警方反将受害人沈爱斌以”寻衅滋事罪”逮捕。

关押三十天后,2025年11月30日,沈爱斌以羁押期满获释,却在当日即遭”监视居住”。这一强制措施名为”居住”,实为囚禁:他不得出门,多次申请就医均被拒绝,家门外新增数个人脸识别摄像头,两名特勤二十四小时驻守。家人与朋友遭警方威胁,被勒令不得向外传递任何消息,微信、微博上的相关信息亦遭全面封删。

据法律人士分析,此次监视居住明显违反《刑事诉讼法》相关规定,沈爱斌根本不符合法定逮捕条件,当局不过是以合法名义实施非法拘禁。

“Wuxi Rights Defender Shen Aibin Subjected to Long-Term CCP Residential Surveillance (2026.03.21)”

Shen Aibin, a native of Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, served in the military for twelve years before retiring and taking up a leadership position in the urban management system. After witnessing years of illegal forced demolitions and judicial corruption in Wuxi, he chose to leave behind a stable career and became a human rights defender and citizen journalist.

The price of standing by his conscience has been severe. Since 2014, Shen Aibin has been wrongfully convicted three times, serving a total of seven years in prison. In April 2025, he walked out of Liyang Prison in broken health and penniless. Just six months later, on October 30 of the same year, he was arrested again.

The circumstances of this arrest are staggering. On October 27, Shen Aibin accompanied someone to a police station to request a summons document. Simply for citing the law and stating that “a summons notice should be given to the party concerned,” he was beaten at the direction of deputy station chief Dai Feng, suffering bilateral nasal bone fractures. Rather than holding the perpetrator accountable, police arrested the victim, Shen Aibin, on charges of “picking quarrels and provoking trouble.”

After thirty days of detention, Shen Aibin was released on November 30, 2025 — only to be placed under “residential surveillance” the very same day. This measure is surveillance in name but imprisonment in practice: he is not allowed to leave home, his repeated requests for medical care have been denied, multiple facial-recognition cameras have been installed outside his door, and two security agents stand watch around the clock. His family and friends have been threatened by police and ordered not to share any information about him with the outside world. All related content on WeChat and Weibo has been comprehensively censored and deleted.

Legal experts note that this residential surveillance order is a clear violation of the Criminal Procedure Law — Shen Aibin does not meet the legal conditions for arrest, and the authorities are effectively carrying out unlawful detention under the guise of a lawful measure.
