【禁闻】质疑上市公司被跨省抓 陈永洲第二

【新唐人2013年10月31日讯】网名为“天地侠影”的汪炜华,10月12号在上海家中被新疆乌鲁木齐市公安局刑事拘留,拘留通知书显示,汪炜华被刑拘的罪名是“涉嫌编造与传播证券期货交易虚假信息罪”。在此之前,总部设在乌鲁木齐市的上市公司“广汇能源股份有限公司”董事长秘书表示,“广汇能源”今年9月向警方举报了汪炜华。汪炜华被跨省追捕,成为广州《新快报》记者陈永洲第二。

汪炜华自10月14号被羁押在乌鲁木齐市天山看守所后,他的家人为他聘请的代理律师刘江华,直到10月20号才见到他。

刘江华告诉《新唐人》,他请求查阅“广汇能源”向警方举报汪炜华的材料,但是警方拒绝,甚至拒绝告知举报人或举报单位是谁。

大陆大成律师事务所律师刘江华:“根据我会见汪炜华向他了解到的情况,他这个广汇能源提出的质疑,依据都是广汇能源在网上公开的年报和中报,这些公开的信息进行的分析,判断,推理,最后提出自己质疑的观点。如果仅仅是这方面的话,构成编造传播证券虚假信息罪,可能就有点问题。”

汪炜华虽然人在狱中,但是比较乐观,他本人向律师表示,不同意与举报方和解,并且提出,他的分析文章是不是构成“编造传播证券期货交易虚假信息罪”,最好能有证监部门来界定。

刘江华:“因为他不认为自己犯罪。因为他质疑的都是有根有据。因为他质疑目地是为了寻求一个事实的真相。”

汪炜华是业余的股票投资者,他在澳洲“墨尔本大学”攻读完博士研究生学位后,最近回上海探亲。去年10月,汪炜华在投资者论坛《雪球网》上注意到网友对“广汇能源”的讨论。决定要好好研究一下这家公司。

在研究了“广汇能源”的财务报告后,汪炜华认为,“广汇能源”正在大力推动的天然气项目前景,并不像他们宣传的那么好。他发文指出“广汇能源”存在“财务欺诈”。

汪炜华的文章引发了一波投资者和媒体对“广汇能源”的猛烈质疑。股价因此不再坚挺。

在10月25号下午的证监会例行发布会上,证监会新闻发言人对汪炜华被逮捕一事表示,上市公司必须严格执行信息披露的要求,证监会支持各界参与监督,但是必须要以事实为依据,以法律为准绳。

刘江华认为,证监会有义务去核实民众有关证券期货的质疑,而被质疑的上市公司,也应当主动的对投资人提出的质疑,按照证券法和证监会的要求,予以澄清。刘江华表示,投资人对上市公司进行举报的比较普遍,而上市公司举报投资人“编造并传播证券虚假信息”的则非常罕见。

2002年,中国《财经》杂志质疑在深圳上市的“世纪星源公司”操纵财务报表,遭到“世纪星源”的起诉。法庭判决《财经》败诉。

前《财经》总编,现任“财新传媒”总编辑的胡舒立,当年对案件评论说,一个根本性的问题,是媒体究竟有没有权力以事实为依据,对上市公司作出批评?

如今,汪炜华被抓,她再次感叹说,当年只是民事案件,已经十分震动,难以想像,在中国股市多少有些进步、公开性不断增强的今天,竟有网友因质疑上市公司被抓之事!

但最近这样难以想像的事情却频频上演。比如广州《新快报》记者陈永洲,因为撰文揭露湖南上市公司“中联重科”欺诈,被湖南警方以“涉嫌损害企业商誉罪”拘捕。而加拿大股票分析师黄昆,被关押在中国洛阳的一所监狱里已超过一年,他被指控诽谤一家加拿大上市公司。

Second Inter-provincial Person Arrested after Chen Yongzhou
for Questioning a Listed Company

Wang Weihua with the net ID “Tiandi Xiaying” was arrested in
his Shanghai home by Xinjiang State Urumqi Public Security
Bureau and placed in criminal detention.

The detention notice said he was suspected of being involved
in fabricating and communicating false information of
securities and futures trading.

The secretary of the Urumqi listed company “Guanghui Energy
Corporation” said they reported Wang Weihua
to police in September.

Wang Weihua was pursued in several provinces and has
become the second Chen Yongzhou.

Anchor:

Wang Weihua has been detained since 14th October in Urumqi
Tianshan Detention Center and could not meet
his lawyer until 20th October.

Liu Jianghua told “New Tang Dynasty TV”, (NTDTV) that he was
refused by police to access Guanghui Energy’s tip-off report;
and even refused to speak about the informer and company.

Dacheng Law Firm Liu Jianghua: according to my
understanding, Wang Weihua questioned the Guanghui Energy
Company based on his analysis and judgment of Guanghui
Energy public information from the internet including their
annual report and semi-annual reports.

If only considering this aspect, there might be a problem for
him to be charged of fabricating and communicating false
securities and futures trading information.

Wang Weihua was optimistic even in prison.

He told the lawyer that he disagreed to reconcile with the
reporter and his analysis document does not constitute the
crime of fabricating and spreading false
securities and futures trading information.
It is better to have the Securities Department to decide.

Liu Jianghua: Wang Weihua doesn’t think he is a criminal
because his question is well-founded in seeking truth.

Wang Wei, an amateur stock investor, obtained his PhD degree
from the University of Melbourne, visited his family in Shanghai.
Last October, netizens’ discussions from the Investor’s forum
“snowball network" made him decide to carry-out
careful research on this company.

Wang Weihua believes that the prospect of vigorously
promoting the natural gas project is not as good as advertised
according to the Guanghui Energy’s financial report.

He issued that there is financial fraud in Guanghui Energy.

Wang Weihua’s article triggered investors and the media
to question Guanghui Energy.
The share price is now unstable.

In the afternoon of October 25, during the regular press
conference of the Securities Regulatory Commission, the
spokesman said the listed companies must strictly implement
the information disclosure requirement.
The regulatory commission welcomed monitoring from all
walks of life based on the law and facts.

Liu Jianghua accepted that the Securities Regulatory
Commission has an obligation to verify investors’ questions
on securities and futures.

The listed companies in question should also clarify the
question according to the securities laws and requirements.
Liu Jianghua said that it’s quite normal that an investor
reported a listed company, while listed companies reporting
on investors “fabricating and disseminating false
information" is very rare.

In 2002, the China Finance magazine was sued for questioning
the Shenzhen listed company FOUNTAIN CORPORATION for
manipulating financial statements and lost.

Previous finance editor and current Caixin Media chief editor
Hu Shuli commented on the case that year, the main problem
was whether the media had the right to criticize the listed
company according to the law.

Today, Wang Weihua was arrested and lamented that it was a
great shock for just a civil case this year.
It’s hard to imagine that a netizen is arrested for just
questioning a listed company in today’s China with somewhat
progressive and growing open stock market.

But recently such unbelievable things have
been frequently staged.
Such as, Guangzhou New Express reporter Chen Yongzhou
being arrested by Hunan police for disclosing the listed
company Zoomlion’s fraud.

He was arrested on suspicion of damaging corporate reputation.
The Canadian equity analyst Huang Kun was holed up in
Luoyang for more than a year and was sued for defamation
of a Canadian public company.
