中共官方《環球時報》英文版昨日公開提及,去年12月被捕「神秘富商」周斌(又名周濱),是前中共政治局常委兼中央政法委書記周永康的兒子。分析認為這顯示當局針對周永康貪腐問題的調查正日漸公開。有評論認為,國務院總理李克強會否仿效溫家寶,在「兩會」記者會上公布周永康案件,將成為近期中國政治的關注點。
周濱是以黑惡勢力劉漢保護傘的角色在國內輿論界出場的,且一出場關注度便急劇上升。2月21日,《人民日報》整版報道劉漢案件,并聲稱劉漢與政商勾結的內幕將一一揭開。
2月24日,星島日報報道了劉漢與胡德平有上億元的資金關聯,“劉漢曾經捐資一億元人民幣發起設立‘天諾慈善基金會’,基金會理事長王豫穎就是德平的夫人。牽出胡耀邦家族,劉漢案進一步發酵升級。
而后《中國經營報》報道劉漢事涉珠峰系賴昌星走私大案。劉漢案牽涉面之廣令人瞠目。
劉漢案牽涉的胡德平與周濱,由于某種關系,國內主流媒體特別是南方系媒體更熱衷于炒作周濱的身份,進行了周密的調查。搜狐特別整理了《周濱:以父之名》,財新網特別調查《富商周濱的叔叔們》,可謂用心良苦。
周濱背后的保護傘究竟是誰?周永康涉貪腐被調查早已流傳,但官方一直沒有公開證實。3月2日下午三點,全國政協十二屆二次會議新聞發布會上,大會新聞發言人呂新華接受南華早報關于周永康的提問時,回應了一句“你懂的”,被各大網站即時瘋狂轉載。
次日,《環球時報》評論員署名文章借點評呂新華此次發言為契機,點名周永康,并暗示其與周濱案有關聯,首次打破國內官方媒體報道尺度。而3月4日《環球時報》英文版則直接說明周永康是周濱之父。
《環球時報》首次公開確認周永康在周濱犯罪調查中的身份,有可能是當局結案前借此向外界發出的預報。
《環球時報》(英文版)網站昨日(4日)發表文章《Probe into Zhou family grows》,首次公開確認周永康在周濱犯罪案件中的身份,外界猜測是否發出什么信號。有待進一步觀察。以下是報道原文:
Probe into Zhou family grows
Global Times | 2014-3-4 0:28:01
By Global Times
Zhou Yuanqing, brother of a former senior official, and his wife, Zhou Lingying, were put under investigation in December 2013 under suspicion of using their government connections to amass wealth, according to media reports.
After a string of cases, it has been revealed that people close to Zhou Yongkang, former member of the Political Bureau Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, were allegedly involved in corruption.
Officials told The Beijing News that Zhou Yuanqing, former head of the land and resources bureau in Huishan district of Wuxi in Jiangsu Province, and his wife were investigated due to their ties with companies affiliated with China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), where Zhou Yongkang served as a senior official from 1988 to 1998.
A company controlled by Zhou Lingying jointly founded a new company with Kunlun Energy Company under CNPC in 2012. This then expanded into the natural gas business using her relationship with CNPC.
Li Hualin, chairman of the board of Kunlun and vice general manager of CNPC was investigated in 2013 for seriously violating discipline.
Zhou Lingying's company, set up in 2010, was granted the sole license to sell Audi vehicles in Jiangyin, Jiangsu Province soon after the company's launch. Audis are deemed to be the vehicle of choice for Chinese officials, Caixin magazine reported Monday. Sources said that obtaining such a license needs solid connections with officialdom, and even senior Audi management cannot intervene, the report said.
The report said that Zhou Yuanqing's relatives also earned money from helping others to smooth out issues using their connections, such as pulling strings to commute a sentence for someone, for which 150,000 yuan ($24,407) was charged.
Zhou Bin, son of Zhou Yongkang, was also revealed to have secretly built his business empire through "powerful government connections" by media reports last week. He acquired an affordable housing program in Beijing, and transferred it to a real estate company for profit.
Prior to that, multiple high-ranking officials within the CNPC system and businessmen related to Zhou Bin have been investigated, including Jiang Jiemin, former head of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and former president of CNPC, who was probed in September 2013.
While media reports disclosed the investigations with no specific mention of Zhou Yongkang, he was mentioned for the first time at a high-level political press conference Sunday.
A spokesperson for the session of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference said that China will severely punish corrupt officials regardless of the level of their position.
This came in response to a question as to whether Zhou Yongkang, who retired in November 2012, had been investigated.
The speech, along with the recent wave of media reports about people connected to Zhou Yongkang, has led many to wonder whether overseas media reports claiming Zhou Yongkang is being probed are true or not.
Central government launched a campaign last year to crack down on both "tigers" and "flies," specifically referring to officials at all levels who have committed major and minor graft crimes.
