Authorities in the southern Chinese province of Guangdong are holding a netizen under criminal detention after he posted remarks critical of President Xi Jinping online, his fiancee said Thursday.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Liang Qinhui, also known by his online nickname “Sharp Knife,” was detained by police in Guangdong’s provincial capital Guangzhou on Tuesday, Liang’s fiancee Fu Yuqin told RFA.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
“[The police] said they wanted to have a chat and that it wasn’t convenient here at home, so he should go to the police station,” Fu said.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
“As a good citizen, he went along with it, but when he got there … they said this was a very serious matter, and that he was likely to be criminally detained.”<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Liang now faces charges of “discrediting national leaders,” “incitement to subvert state power,” and “fabricating untrue information,” she said.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
The charges were based on articles and photos posted online by Liang to chat groups on the popular social media service QQ, she said.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
“The police told me that the subversion charge and the charge of discrediting national leaders were linked to Liang’s posting of a photo of Xi Jinping, which had text added to it which contained insults,” Fu said.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
Fu said she couldn’t see the logic in the charges.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
“I think that he was posting it to make a point about today’s society, and about justice,” she said. “I didn’t think it was that bad.”<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
“He wrote that the beauty of a society lies in equality, and that of a country in freedom, the beauty of a government in its people, and the beauty of the people’s lives lies in their rights,” Fu said.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
“I called up the police and asked them what kind of a country can’t even manage freedom of expression.”<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
“He told me that there is freedom of expression, but that it wasn’t OK to say those things.”<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
Fu added: “I think it’s pretty dangerous when even those ideas aren’t allowed.”<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
Tightened controls<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
Press freedom campaigner Wang Aizhong said the party has continued to tighten controls over online expression that is remotely critical of the regime.<\/div>
