A puzzling demolition:

The deputy mayor of the headquarters took charge

Since 2007 , a project called old city renovation was fully launched in Fengcheng. The project consists of the construction and renovation of 5 areas including Jianyi Bridge and Qiaotou Park, Social Security Bureau, Furniture Factory, Pingjia Lake, and Urban Market. Fengcheng City established a demolition headquarters headed by the deputy mayor.

In Document No. 8 issued by the Fengcheng City Government in 2007, there is a description of the significance of the renovation project: it is a major measure to promote the construction of a modern medium-sized city in our city, and also to accelerate the "one city, four districts" A major measure to build and improve the living environment for residents in the old city. Some citizens reported that among the five projects, except for the first project, which is urban infrastructure construction, the remaining four are commercial development projects. In these four commercial development projects, the government adopted a method of implicating the relatives of the demolished households to vigorously promote demolition.

An unnamed person told reporters that some time ago, a large number of demolished households took the notice issued by the government to vigorously promote demolition and petitioned everywhere. Fengcheng City no longer issues written documents, but the working methods remain the same.

On the streets of Fengcheng, promotional banners were hung all over the streets. There are also warning slogans that "severely crack down on all people and things that deliberately undermine the transformation of the old city in accordance with the law."

However, the old city renovation project has been questioned by the demolition households. They believe that the vast majority of demolition sites are for commercial development, the demolitions are carried out by different real estate developers, and the compensation is far lower than the surrounding market price.

After the demolition of the Pingjia Lake plot is completed, it will be developed into a real estate called Fengcheng Tianxia by a real estate company. Although there are still many residents who have not signed the demolition agreement, the developer's sales promotion has begun. "The demolition of the land developed by our company must wait for the government's overall arrangements. With the government's administrative support, there should be no problem." "The government's various actions make us feel that the government is like a developer." During the interview, many The demolished households interviewed all felt this way. "It is really puzzling why the government does not hesitate to use such huge administrative resources to serve developers."

The dilemma of a public official:

If the uncle does not demolish the house, his nephew's salary will be suspended

On the morning of January 7, 2008, Wu Ming (pseudonym), a cadre of a unit in Fengcheng City, received a call from the leader of the unit. The leader asked him to seize the time to mobilize his relatives for the demolition, and asked him to have his relatives sign the demolition agreement around the 20th of this month. The leader also told Wu Ming that the unit had made a decision to stop paying wages to all those who failed to complete their tasks within the specified time.

For Wu Ming, it has been commonplace for Wu Ming to answer such calls or be asked to talk to him by his leaders. Because his uncle's house was included in the land acquisition scope of a commercial housing development project, it had to be demolished. Not only were the demolition compensation standards pitifully low, but no developers were seen during the demolition process, which was all promoted by the government through administrative means.

“How can I have the dignity to work with my relatives?” Wu Ming was helpless. "But the current policy is 'implication'. Any public official who is related to the demolished households is the responsible person and has to work through it, otherwise there will be so-called organizational measures waiting for me.

”

The children of Cheng Huojin (pseudonym), who lives in Shibandi, Fengcheng City, are public officials in a certain unit in the city. Because Cheng Huojin was unwilling to sign a demolition agreement with extremely unreasonable compensation, the children were suspended from their jobs and stayed at home to support their old father. Work. If he signed the demolition agreement, he would suffer huge losses. If he didn't sign, he was worried that it would affect his children's future. He was in tears when being interviewed by reporters.

The choice of a demolition household:

Being a nail household and living or dying as a store owner

On January 8, 2008, it was still a 7-story house. Three floors of the Fengcheng City Social Security Bureau building have been demolished. 57-year-old Shao Guorong sat in his shop on the first floor to defend his property. Over his head, demolition workers hit the building again and again. Stones continued to fall from upstairs, covering the ground in front of his shop.

Since the 25th of last month, a resident upstairs was forced to move out, Shao Guorong. He has become the only "nail house" in this demolition area. Although the developer built a two-meter-high wall in front of his store as early as two months ago, Lao Shao has been unable to do anything. The business was over, but he still decided to stay in the store with property rights. In 1996, Lao Shao bought a store of more than 40 square meters here and sold agricultural machinery accessories for a family of five. This is a living. Not long ago, someone from the demolition office informed him that this land was going to be developed and demolished, and the compensation price offered to Lao Shao was 5,600 yuan per square meter, and it was about 100 meters away from Lao Shao's store. Across the road, a shop in a real estate project called Fengyi Central sells for 20,408 yuan per square meter.

“It took a lifetime of hard work to build this small shop, and we can’t just suffer like this. . The same goes for the residents. Their demolition compensation is about 1,100 yuan per square meter, but the commercial housing opposite is sold for more than 3,000 yuan per square meter. "Shao Guorong said.

During the demolition, Lao Shao made a tragic decision. All five members of his family moved into the store and lived and died with the store.

A difficult investigation:

Journalists were pushed and insulted during interviews

On the afternoon of January 9, 2008, the reporter went to the demolition headquarters located on Renmin Road in Fengcheng City to find out more situation. A person who claimed to be Director Jin Dongfa of the Housing Authority told reporters, “Fengcheng’s development procedures are complete and there will be no forced demolition, no barbaric demolition, and no connected demolition. "

The reporter asked: "Some people reported that the municipal government asked relevant personnel to stop working and go back to communicate with relatives. Even low-income households were threatened with having their minimum living allowances suspended if they did not cooperate with the demolition. Are these reflections true?"

Jin Dongfa said: "This question should not be answered by me, but by the government departments. ”

The reporter saw a red-headed document from the command headquarters on the desk in his office. The content inside once again confirmed the information obtained from the reporter’s interview: including the regulations formulated by Fengcheng City. The division of labor in the demolition work includes "whose children will be taken away" and "the first leader will be punished".

The reporter took out a report compiled and distributed by the demolition branch headquarters on December 21, 2007. In the seventh issue of "Internal Bulletin", when verifying the content with another staff member, Jin Dongfa suddenly took it from the reporter's hand and tore up the "Internal Bulletin", saying, "These are useless things, maybe they were picked up somewhere." "Come here." After saying that, he walked out the door. Immediately, several people came around from different directions and pushed and pulled the reporter. Among them, some people shouted and insulted the reporter. At the same time, a man who claimed to be from the Public Security Bureau Someone came forward and asked the reporter to show his ID, and said sternly: For interviews, you must contact the Propaganda Department.

A demolition diary:

A demolished household was detained<. /p>

A demolished household recorded "Demolition Events" in a book:

On November 10, 2007, the water supply to the residential building of the Social Security Bureau was cut off. The next day, the electricity and closed-circuit television were shut down. The piped gas was also cut off on the third day. Under various pressures, many residents moved out one after another.

On November 3, 2007, the demolished households in Fengcheng City Market hung national flags and banners in their windows facing the street, hoping to attract the attention of the government. At around 1 a.m. the next day, the relevant departments mobilized many people to set up fire ladders and took down all the flags and banners.

On October 30, 2007, the demolished households invited two lawyers from Nanchang to explain the Property Law. In the conference room of a hotel in Fengcheng City, more than 30 demolished households had not listened to the lawyer's explanation for an hour. Dozens of heavily armed police officers suddenly arrived and took all the people to the Public Security Bureau for investigation.

Afterwards, one of the relocated households, Chen Bin, was administratively detained for 15 days. In this regard, the demolition households explained that at that time, they hired a lawyer to explain the Property Law, and it was Chen Bin who paid 3,000 yuan in advance. Later, everyone shared the cost equally and paid him back the money he had advanced. The "Public Security Administrative Penalty Decision" issued by the Fengcheng City Public Security Bureau on November 24, 2007, seen by the reporter, stated: In 2007, the municipal party committee and the municipal government organized the demolition and reconstruction of the farmer's market. During this process, Chen Bin organized a rally. Hire a lawyer, write a letter and hang a banner, and use this as an excuse to charge fees from the demolished owners, but cannot explain the whereabouts of these fees... It was decided to impose a 15-day administrative detention penalty on Chen Bin.

The above was reported objectively by China Youth Daily last year.

But time came to 2009, and the "implication" in Fengcheng City, Jiangxi Province continued. . . . .
