【禁聞】鐵道部「從未停止搜救」 自打嘴巴

【新唐人2011年8月1日訊】7月28號，鐵道部發言人在中共喉舌《新華網》專訪時聲稱，將列車車頭「挖坑填埋」銷毀證據的說法，並不屬實﹔同時，他說，從未早早宣佈停止救援。他的說法，引發媒體記者、受難者家屬和網民的強烈質疑。來自多家媒體現場記者傳出的報導中，證實鐵道部官員自打嘴巴，難自圓其說。

鐵道部發言人表示，鐵路部門指揮人員「從未宣佈」停止搜救，更不存在銷毀證據的問題。但接著又說，「24日23時30分，確認沒有倖存者，並對遺物、車體進行清理收集完後，『救援工作結束』。」

外界質疑，如果官員「從未宣佈」停止搜救，那麼《央視》的相關報導又怎麼解釋呢？

《法國廣播電臺》根據大陸《中央電視臺》的報導進行了分析。

文章指出，24號凌晨5點《央視》發出現場畫面報導，確認“截至凌晨4點鐘，整個人員搜救行動已經結束了”。6點47分，《央視》又一次連線，主持人兩次換方式提問同一個問題：是否已經確定沒有生命存在？記者回答“現在可以確定”———“在凌晨4點鐘，這裡已經沒有了生命體徵的現象。在此之後，他們才開始決定要清理現場。”

報導說，鐵道部的上述否認也引發了很多現場採訪記者的質疑。《南方電視臺》記者表示，4點後救援確實結束了，現場已經沒有人員在搜救。

而《新快報》記者說，“我可作證，有採訪、有錄音，凌晨三點半左右，救援的一名官員回答我「救援進行到甚麼階段？」時說：救援基本結束。”

那麼到底是誰命令停止搜救工作的呢？

《法廣》引述《央視》24號凌晨的報導，“3點40分，鐵道部部長盛光祖到達這裡，聽取了當地消防、武警官兵現場情況的描述，做了最新佈置———就是要以最快的時間、最快的速度將現場清理完畢，儘快完成通車。” 而現場記者表示，盛光祖凌晨3點多到現場，4點多離開，這時現場工作重心已經轉變，救援車輛、人員開始大批離開，此後不久重型機械等開始進場。

中南大學王教授：“中國呢他不是以人為本，在我的很多文章裡都有，他拚命的掩蓋事實，他的責任就小一些，中國（中共）政府一貫的很多問題上都掩蓋事實了，推卸責任，這個是太多了過去的礦難也是啊。礦難死了多少人都是隱瞞的了。這是中國的特色，沒有辦法。

那麼這個命令究竟是來自誰呢？最近在微博中傳出，命令來自中共副總理張德江。

據微博的消息說，有大陸記者接觸過鐵道部一位不願透露姓名的官員，這名官員表示，包括鐵道部長在內的鐵路系統並無權力下達這類命令，在事故搶險指揮部成立後，命令只能由總指揮張德江才能下達。

另外，據現場一位搜救者說，張德江下達清理橋上被撞車體的命令，是為了讓鐵路儘快恢復通車。

張德江是主管交通運輸及安全生產的國務院副總理。不過，溫家寶30號飛往溫州，身旁已不見當時的現場總指揮張德江的身影。香港《蘋果日報》31號報導：張德江最近行綜成謎，外界猜測，張可能因救援不力，被迫銷聲匿跡。

Crash Cover-up Denial Questioned

On July 28, the Ministry of Railways』 Spokesman told

Xinhua News that evidence destroyed from the crash was false.

He also said, there was no order to stop the rescue.

His words were strongly questioned by media reporters,

victims' families and netizens.

Reports from different media verified

the statements of the Ministry of Railways officials

to be inconsistent and often contradictory.

Ministry of Railways』 spokesman said,

the Railways Head has never ordered for the search and

rescue to discontinue, and no evidence was destroyed.

But then he added:

"At 23:30 on July 24, it was confirmed there were no survivors.

After collecting relics and the train body, the rescue ended."

If officials "never ordered" to discontinue search and rescue,

how can the reports of the authorities』 CCTV be explained?

Radio France has analyzed the reports that CCTV aired

in mainland China.

The article points out that at 5:00 a.m. on July 24,

CCTV reported from the site of the crash and confirmed,

"at 4:00 o'clock, the personnel search and rescue was over."

At 6:47 a.m., CCTV again showed the reporter onsite

and the TV host asked twice if more survivors were found.

The reporter replied, "No, it is confirmed now.

There were no survivors at 4:00 a.m. and it was decided

to start the clean up operations of the site."

Reports said that the Ministry of Railways』 denial also raises

questions about the information from the onsite reporters.

Southern Television reporters said that after 4 a.m, the rescue

was over and there was no search and rescue personnel on site.

A reporter of New Express Daily said,

"I can testify with my interview and recording that

at about 3:30 a.m., I asked 『What stage is the rescue at now?』

a rescue official replied: 『It is almost over.』"

So who ordered to stop the search and rescue work?

Radio France quoted CCTV morning reports of July 24,

"At 3:40 a.m., Sheng Guangzu, Minister of Railways,

arrived here to hear from local fire rescue and police officers,

and made a decision to clean up the site and

reopen this section as soon as possible.”

Onsite reporters said that Sheng Guangzu arrived at the scene

at about 3 a.m. and left after 4 a.m.

Then the onsite work』 focus was shifted.

Rescue vehicles and personnel began exiting the site,

and heavy machinery started to arrive shortly after.

Professor Wang from the Central South University said:

"China is not people-oriented, as mentioned in my articles.

It tries hard to cover up the facts as to lessen its responsibility.

China』s government has always been covering up,

silencing people with money, etc.

Past mine accidents were the same.

The number of deaths is concealed.

This is China's characteristic; there is no solution."

Then from whom did this order come?

Recently it was posted on a microblog that

it was from Vice Premier Zhang Dejiang.

As per the microblog post, a reporter interviewed an official

from the Ministry of Railways, who did not disclose his name.

The official said, the Railways system, including its Minister,

has no power to issue such orders.

After the rescue headquarters were set up,

orders can only be issued by Zhang Dejiang.

In addition, according to a search and rescue worker,

Zhang』 order to start the clean up operations

was to allow the Railways to restore the traffic ASAP.

Zhang is in charge of transportation and safety production.

However, on July 30, when Premier Wen Jiabao

flew to Wenzhou, Zhang was not with him.

Hong Kong』s Apple Daily reported on July 31 that

Zhang had disappeared recently.

Many believe the reason is Zhang』s poor rescue decisions,

so he』s been forced to stay out of sight.
