Dissenting political Chinese, Hu Jia was published yesterday, after having served more than three years in prison for subversion, just days after the controversial artist Ai Weiwei was released on bail.
Unlike the release of IA, release of Mr. Hu had been scheduled for release some time, and his wife Zeng Jinyuan complained of harassment at the approach of the release of her husband.
"Safe, very pleased." Need to retrieve for a period of time, "she wrote in a message from Twitter."
She said that it would be deprived of his political rights for one year and that it would not be able to speak to the media.
What looks like the most likely scenario is that Mr. Hu will be kept under house arrest at his home - in his case the same scenario exactly as before he was imprisoned.
It is the fate that awaits AI for next year and is also what happened to the blind lawyer, barefoot Chen Guangcheng, a particularly brutal form of house arrest since his release from prison last year.
Any person coming out of the custody is immediately stifled by the authorities, and Felim Kine, researcher with New York - based Human Rights Watch Asia, said that he feared he would be under house arrest could be a new policy.
"I fear that this may be a trend." A ban on contact with the media was a condition of sentencing of Hu Jia, with deprivation of political rights to its release year, and his wife had warned that his release would not "normal", "he says.
Since February, Communist Party of China leads a dissenting repression, invited by the fear that the "Jasmine revolutions" in the authoritarian regimes of the Middle East and North Africa could be extended to China and undermine the party.
The Communist leadership is due to the change of the next year, and it is a very sensitive moment. This period also marks the 90th anniversary of the Communist Party.
The scenario of Hu Jia is similar to that of his dissenting colleague, Ai Weiwei, was published week last after three months of detention, more thin and very weak research and stating that his parole conditions prohibiting him from making statements.
His release at the time when Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao is visiting Europe travel to Britain, the Hungary and the Germany.
A lightweight and light-maniérée figure who suffers from liver disorders, dissident of 37 years was arrested by the police in late December 2007, after more than 200 days under house arrest in his apartment in complex Beijing, which is called the city of Bobo freedom.
Mr. Hu was back in the apartment ironically yesterday named complex with his wife and child.
"For this one year, the focus should be to heal his cirrhosis, caring for parents and children to avoid being arrested again," wrote his wife.
Mr. Hu was convicted of "inciting subversion of the State" by writing articles on the freedom to speak to foreign journalists.
He was found guilty of having written articles on the human rights approach of the Olympic Games in 2008, which were posted overseas Chinese sites as Boxun.
This has prompted charges that he conspired with foreign elements to sabotage the Beijing Games.
He gave interviews to many foreign media and embassies, won the European Union in 2008 Sakharov Prize, and was also in the framework for the Nobel Prize for peace in a given time.
Until the arrest of Liu Xiaobo and conviction on charges of subversion and its sequel Nobel peace, Mr. Hu was probably the best-known defender of human rights in China, and it is pronounced on AIDS, the environment, autonomy Tibetan and freedom of expression.
Mr. Hu is also a vegetarian and Buddhist, who criticized this religion China controls Tibet and voiced sympathy for the Dalai Lama, exiled Tibetan spiritual leader reviled by Beijing.
