FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Following the online reaction, authorities launched an investigation into
allegations of misconduct at the orphanage which was reportedly home to 21
children, 19 of whom were physically or mentally disabled, and staffed by
“four elderly women, who had received no training or care provision.”
According to a report in the state-controlled Xinhua new agency, local
officials admitted “nurses had used chains to confine the two boys, both of
whom suffer mental illness”.
Xinhua said nurses had resorted to using chains “to prevent the boys from
defecating uncontrollably and hurting other children”.
In a statement released this week Cangnan county’s Communist Party committee
said it had placed the orphanage’s director under investigation and was
looking into the “possible misconduct” of staff.
The committee vowed to “launch a major clean-up of the orphanage’s sanitation
[and] improve living and studying conditions”. Health checks had been
arranged for all of the home’s children, the statement added.
Cangnan authorities said they had started “a thorough inspection of all
welfare institutes in the county, strengthening supervision and preventing
such thing from happening again”.
The case followed widespread outrage on social media websites such as Weibo in
June after gruesome pictures were uploaded showing a woman lying beside the
7-month-old foetus she had been forced to abort by local family planning
authorities. The online uproar triggered an investigation and two senior
local government officials were sacked.
Launched in August 2009, Weibo now has close to 300 million users, just shy of
the entire population of the United States.
Doug Young, a media expert from the Journalism School at Shanghai’s Fudan
University, said that while Weibo was often used to post “cutesy pictures
and strange phenomenon”, it had also become an important forum for those
seeking a voice.
“In the absence of more aggressive media like you see in the West or any real
official [and] healthier venue for venting grievances, Weibo has filled a
niche in society for that kind of thing,” he said.
“Most of the stuff that makes it onto Weibo is not positive news, news that
the Communist Party would want blasted into the media,” he added.
In an unrelated case, police said on Friday they had dismantled two major
child trafficking gangs, freeing 181 children and making 802 arrests.
Security officials said 10,000 police operatives took part in raids on
addresses in 15 provinces.
The operation was launched after the number of pregnant women visiting a
health clinic in Hebei province aroused suspicions. Police suspect the
clinic was being used to arrange the sale of babies, a widespread practice
in China partly as a result of the one-child policy.
Police sources told The Beijing Times the price of trafficked children was on
the rise, with baby girls now fetching £5,000 on the black market and boys
commanding a fee of up to £8,000.
