 Zeng Jinyan, the wife of jailed Chinese dissident and AIDS activist Hu Jia, holds a photo of the couple during an interview in Beijing in this December 1, 2010 file photo. Hu was reunited with his family in the early hours of June 26, 2011, after serving three-and-a-half-years in jail on subversion charges, but he needed rest and was not ready to speak in public, said Zeng. Hu was convicted in 2008 for "inciting subversion of state power" for criticising human rights problems in China, and was seen by some supporters as a potential recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize before it went to another jailed Chinese dissident, Liu Xiaobo, last year.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。0 M, x* e9 B$ ] ?* V: [" V

Hu, 37, was found guilty for “inciting subversion of state power” in 2008, after he posted essays and co-authored a letter on the Internet, criticizing China’s rights record in the lead-up to the Beijing Olympics.

The letter charged that rather than delivering on its promise to improve human rights if it got the Games, the government had sold the world a bill of goods: the Olympics brought greater restrictions, not fewer.
