Chen Guangcheng at Chaoyang hospital – May 2
Category china
This is the only media picture of Chinese lawyer Chen Guangcheng so far since his prison sentence followed by 19 months-long house arrest in Shandong province. I took this picture yesterday at 5.10 pm, on the 9th floor of Chaoyang Beijing hospital while Chen Guangcheng was sent to his room by 2 nurses, followed by guards. I really wanted to get a picture of him in motion to express this sudden move from embassy to hospital. The day after, Chen was sent to the 3rd floor of another building surrounded with policemen. This picture is part of a short series (several frames). I’d like to thank the Afp staff in Beijing for their warm support and efficiency.
(Edit – May the 13th) Since that day, it appeared on The New York Times, The Financial Times, The Guardian, The Economist, Time, BBC, CNN, USA Today, Spiegel, Le Monde, Le Figaro, Le Parisien and even La Voix du Nord, from my hometown.
Where is Chen Guangcheng ?
