Despite international efforts to get him released, Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo remains in jail in north-east China, his wife is under house arrest and the Chinese government has used all the clout it has to prevent as many countries as possible attending Friday’s award ceremony. Around the world, on Human Rights Day, people expressed support for the jailed Nobel peace prize winner who is serving an 11-year prison sentence for subversion after signing the Charter 08 manifesto calling for political reform in China. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/xiaobo_nobel.jpg?timestamp=1591271116 https://english.radio.cz/human-rights-activists-prague-support-nobel-peace-prize-winner-liu-xiaobo-8567680 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
