日前，關於中國知名維權人士邢望力在獄中遭非人對待的事件引起了海外媒體的廣泛關注。根據邢望力先生流亡海外的兒子邢鑑公開披露的消息，2026年8月20日，邢望力先生被從駐馬店監獄轉至三門峽監獄。10月20日，家屬在前往監獄探視時震驚地得知，邢望力先生在轉監後遭遇了極其嚴重的非人道對待。
據悉，剛到三門峽監獄時，邢望力僅因皮膚瘙癢抓撓，便被獄政科施以懲罰，強迫雙手舉過頭頂作投降姿勢，每天長達十多個小時，連續折磨五天。不僅如此，監獄還逼迫他每天超負荷工作15小時以上，導致雙手磨出血泡，加之伙食條件惡劣，身心遭到雙重摧殘。面對前來探視的妻子，這位曾多次為弱勢群體發聲的堅強男子流著淚說：「在這裡活不下去了。」
邢望力先生的健康與生命安全目前正面臨迫在眉睫的威脅。為了向身處河南省三門峽監獄的邢望力先生表達深切的關注與聲援，中國民主人權聯盟北加州負責人李海风發起了一場聲援活動。10月25日下午，多位關注法治與人權的人士聚集在聖荷西市政廣場。前來參與聲援行動的包括中國民主人權聯盟的楊坤、盛虎，中國民主黨舊金山黨部的惠汝濤、姚榮濤，以及何冬玲、苗苗等人。
在集會現場，姚榮濤、盛虎、楊坤等對中國國內監獄及看守所狀況有所了解的人士，分享了他們所掌握的見聞。他們指出，在某些地方監管場所內，被羈押人員的生存環境極其惡劣。作息和飲食管理手段十分殘酷，例如每天早晨6點必須起床，晚餐在下午4點半便早早結束，伙食基本只有毫無營養的白菜、豆腐和米飯；有的地方為了消磨被羈押者的精力，甚至在飯菜裡故意不放鹽，導致人長期處於虛弱、萎靡不振的狀態。在睡眠和醫療方面，裡面盛行每兩小時輪班一次的「飛機制」睡眠剝奪，讓人根本無法安睡；面對傳染病也缺乏基本隔離，甚至故意將不認罪者與淋病、梅毒患者擠在大通鋪上；生病了更得不到有效治療，無論感冒還是拉肚子，一律只發放兩粒成分不明的「萬能藥」。這些惡劣的潛規則，證實了邢望力先生目前所遭遇的體罰與折磨絕非個例。
隨後，與會人士何冬玲、苗苗、惠汝濤也分別從不同角度發表了看法，對當前基層執法黑箱化、維權通道受阻以及地方權力缺乏有效監督等現狀表達了深切的擔憂。

集會最後，與會者達成共識。大家一致認為，任何服刑人員的法定權利都不應當被任意剝奪，三門峽監獄部分管理人員對邢望力的體罰、超長工時以及低劣的伙食安排，已嚴重違反了《中華人民共和國監獄法》中關於禁止體罰虐待、保障服刑人員生活待遇的明文規定。地方執法機構的越界與違法，應當受到輿論的監督和上級部門的糾正。
基於對法治的尊重和對基本人道主義的堅守，與會者通過此次集會及海外媒體，向河南省三門峽監獄、河南省監獄管理局以及更高層的司法監管部門發出最直接的聯合呼籲：
——立刻停止對邢望力先生的一切變相體罰與非人道肉體折磨；
——杜絕任何形式的奴工和強迫勞動行為，保障在囚人員的基本人權；
——切實改善監獄伙食與醫療條件，確保邢望力先生獲得基本的營養和必要的醫學治療；
——給予服刑人員最基本的尊嚴，保障其在服刑期間不容剝奪的生命健康權。
與會者表示，不希望看到任何一個地方監獄的違規執法演變成一場無法挽回的悲劇，海外各界將持續關注三門峽監獄對上述法定義務的履行情況，直至邢望力先生的處境得到實質性改善。

Solidarity with Xing Wangli: A Call for Sanmenxia Prison to Safeguard the Human Rights of Inmates
By Guan Yongjie
Abstract: Overseas human rights activists gathered in San Jose to show solidarity with Chinese human rights defender Xing Wangli, who has suffered corporal punishment, forced labor, and atrocious treatment. They called on Henan Sanmenxia Prison to stop the abuse, improve medical care and meals, and safeguard the basic human rights of incarcerated individuals.
Recently, reports regarding the inhumane treatment of renowned Chinese human rights defender Xing Wangli while in prison have drawn widespread attention from overseas media. According to public disclosures by his son, Xing Jian, who currently lives in exile overseas, Xing Wangli was transferred from Zhumadian Prison to Sanmenxia Prison on August 20, 2026. On October 20, when family members visited the prison, they were shocked to learn that Xing Wangli had been subjected to extremely severe inhumane treatment following his transfer.
It is reported that upon his arrival at Sanmenxia Prison, simply because he scratched his skin due to an itch, the prison administration section subjected Xing Wangli to punishment. He was forced to hold his hands above his head in a surrender posture for over ten hours a day, a torment that lasted for five consecutive days. Furthermore, the prison forced him to engage in heavy physical labor for over 15 hours a day, causing blood blisters on his hands. Compounded by deplorable meal conditions, he suffered dual devastation both physically and mentally. Facing his visiting wife, this resilient man—who had repeatedly spoken out for vulnerable groups—said in tears: “I can’t survive in here any longer.”
Mr. Xing Wangli’s health and life safety are currently facing imminent threats. To express deep concern and solidarity for Mr. Xing Wangli, who is held in Sanmenxia Prison in Henan Province, Li Haifeng, head of the Northern California branch of the Chinese Democracy & Human Rights Alliance, initiated a rally. On the afternoon of October 25, numerous individuals concerned with the rule of law and human rights gathered at San Jose City Hall Plaza. Participants included Yang Kun and Sheng Hu from the Chinese Democracy & Human Rights Alliance; Hui Rutao and Yao Rongtao from the San Francisco Chapter of the Democratic Party of China; as well as He Dongling and Miao Miao, among others.
At the rally, individuals knowledgeable about the conditions inside Chinese domestic prisons and detention centers, such as Yao Rongtao, Sheng Hu, and Yang Kun, shared their observations and experiences. They pointed out that in certain local detention facilities, the living environment for detainees is extremely harsh. Daily schedules and dietary management are conducted in brutal ways. For instance, detainees are forced to wake up at 6:00 AM every morning, while dinner ends as early as 4:30 PM. The meals consist almost entirely of unnutritious cabbage, tofu, and rice. In some places, to break the spirits and stamina of detainees, salt is deliberately omitted from the food, leaving people in a prolonged state of physical weakness and listlessness. Regarding sleep and medical care, a sleep deprivation mechanism known as the rotating “airplane shift” system—requiring detainees to take two-hour night-watch shifts—prevents any restful sleep. When contagious diseases occur, there is a total lack of basic isolation; uncooperative detainees who refuse to plead guilty are sometimes intentionally crammed onto shared sleeping platforms with patients suffering from gonorrhea or syphilis. When detainees fall ill, they receive no effective treatment; whether suffering from a cold or diarrhea, they are uniformly given two pills of an unspecified “all-purpose” medication. These dark unwritten rules confirm that the corporal punishment and abuse currently experienced by Mr. Xing Wangli are by no means isolated incidents.
Subsequently, attendees He Dongling, Miao Miao, and Hui Rutao shared their perspectives from different angles, expressing profound concern over current realities such as the black-box nature of grassroots law enforcement, the obstruction of rights-defense channels, and the lack of effective supervision over local authority.

At the conclusion of the rally, the attendees reached a consensus. Everyone agreed that the statutory rights of any incarcerated person should not be arbitrarily stripped away. The corporal punishment, excessively long working hours, and inferior meal arrangements imposed on Xing Wangli by certain managerial staff at Sanmenxia Prison constitute severe violations of the clear provisions in the Prison Law of the People’s Republic of China regarding the prohibition of corporal punishment and abuse, as well as the guarantee of living standards for prisoners. The overstepping and illegal conduct of local law enforcement agencies must be subjected to public oversight and corrected by superior authorities.
Based on respect for the rule of law and adherence to fundamental humanitarian principles, the participants issued a direct joint appeal through this rally and overseas media to Henan Sanmenxia Prison, the Henan Provincial Prison Administration Bureau, and higher-level judicial supervisory authorities:
— Immediately cease all disguised forms of corporal punishment and inhumane physical abuse against Mr. Xing Wangli;
— Eradicate any form of slave labor and forced labor, and safeguard the basic human rights of incarcerated individuals;
— Earnestly improve prison meal and medical conditions, ensuring that Mr. Xing Wangli receives basic nutrition and necessary medical treatment;
— Grant incarcerated individuals basic dignity, and protect their unalienable right to life and health during their imprisonment.
Participants stated that they do not wish to see unlawful enforcement by any local prison turn into an irremediable tragedy. Overseas communities will continue to monitor Sanmenxia Prison’s performance of the aforementioned statutory obligations until Mr. Xing Wangli’s situation sees substantial improvement.
