Authorities holding Hada’s wife and son, brought charges last January
Reporters Without Borders 无国界记者 | 10 May 2011
Reporters Without Borders strongly condemns the trumped-up charges of “illegal business activities” and “drug possession” that the Chinese authorities have brought against the wife and son of Hada, the Mongolian human rights activist who should have been released last December on completing a 15-year jail sentence.
In an interview for the Southern Mongolian Human Rights Information Centre on 4 May, Hada’s sister-in-law, Naraa, revealed that Hada’s wife, Xinna, and his son, Uiles, are being held in Hohhot, the capital of Inner Mongolia, and that they were formally charged on 17 January. Arrested in early December, their only crime was to support Hada in his fight to defend his basic rights.
Naraa’s interview has confirmed fears that Hada and his two closest relatives are still being detained that that they have not have not been resting in a luxury hotel, as the China authorities claimed last December. Uiles was to have gone on trial at the end of April, but the trial has been postponed without a new date being set, Naraa said.
Naraa said the Chinese authorities have made it clear to Hada and his relatives that they will not be freed until they sign an undertaking to abandon their human rights activities. Until now, they have refused to do this, she said. Hada has gone on several hunger strikes in protest against the conditions in which they are being held. His health has deteriorated and is now very worrying.
Information about the fate of Hada, Xinna and Uiles has been very slow in emerging. The movements and communications of other members of the family have been closely monitored and both telephones and computers have been confiscated.
Reporters Without Borders calls for the immediate and unconditional release of Hada, Xinna and Uiles, and for an end to the surveillance of their other relatives.
The press freedom organization also calls on the Chinese authorities to provide precise information about the present whereabouts of Govruud Huuchinhuu, who has been missing since leaving hospital on 27 January after appealing online for Hada’s release.

哈达的妻子和儿子自从2011年1月起正式遭到关押
维权人士哈达的妻子新娜和儿子维勒斯在2011年1月17日分别被控“非法经商”、“持有毒品”，无国界记者对此给予严厉谴责。新娜和维勒斯自从2010年12月4日、5日开始被拘禁。实际上他们唯一的错误就是支持网络异见者哈达维护基本权利。
哈达的小姨娜拉在5月4日接受非政府组织南蒙古人权信息中心(SMHRIC)访问时表示，哈达及其家人并没有获得自由，也不像中国当局宣传的那样在豪华宾馆里休息，他们实际上遭到了关押。维勒斯可能已经在4月末出庭应审，但是对他的诉讼不知被推迟到哪一天。
在采访中，娜拉解释说，哈达及其家人只有在在签署了承诺不再从事异见活动的保证书后才能获释，但目前他们拒绝签署保证书。为了抗议自己和家人被关押的条件，哈达几次绝食，他的健康状况恶化，身体情况堪忧。
有关他们三人的信息被严密控制，要延迟几个月才能获得。哈达一家亲友的行踪和通讯情况也被严密监视，电话和电脑都被没收。
无国界记者呼吁中国当局立即无条件释放哈达及其家人，停止监视哈达一家的亲友。
另外，无国界记者要求当局公布呼群特古斯的近况，他通过网络呼吁释放哈达，1月27日从医院出院后失踪。
