The government also wanted to have Ai Weiwei under direct control, so it was only abducted to an unknown place and held there for 81 days, without a trace of a rule of law, with the same symptoms as it is obviously unsustainable.
After that, the Chinese rulers - also contrary to every idea of the rule of law and human dignity - imposed a "house arrest" about the artist, his passport and thus the opportunity to move like a free person, were withheld from him.
During this 1,579 days, the Chinese regime failed to silence the artist or to keep it under control.

Some of the activities of him and the people around him can be read here in the articles "Ai Weiwei and 'The Fake Case' ", "Ai Weiwei - Art and Ruilance of an indomitable" and "Ai Weiwei - Never Sorry About Oppression" - and in every legal state of media you will find several reports that Ai Weiwei does not take a moment during the 136.425,600 seconds Just thought of apologizing to uncover the oppression in China.
At the Munich Airport, Ai Weiwei was welcomed by his son, who has been living with his mother in Berlin for a year, for safety's sake, out of entitlement from the artist about the unpredictability of the Chinese regime.

-> DW - Ai Weiwei is in Germany
Ai Weiwei was allowed to go through an unpleasant intermezzo between acceptance of his passport on July 22nd and arrival in Germany on July 31 - he threatened to happen to new injustice because he had previously experienced illegal treatment.
Ai Weiwei had applied for a visa for London to see his daughter and to accompany his exhibition that started there soon, which was refused by the British Embassy in Beijing because he had not stated that he was a criminal record. Previous by a procedure of the Chinese government that violates human dignity and many other principles of the rule of law ...
In the meantime, a more of the idea of the rule of law has looked at representative of the British government the rejection and ai Weiwei has received his visa.
This nightmare of an inherited inheritance inheritance seems to be a system inherent in the system. Again and again it is reported on the fate of people whose entire existence was in danger or even destroyed because an injustice at the very beginning of a chain of action caused or causing further injustice.
Here it is the state -threatened/damaged artist, which is threatened by arbitrary and against human rights, which is to be denied a visa by the next, supposedly constant state power with reference to the previous injustice.
In any village in Germany, it is the minor asylum seeker who is classified as an adult in a highly controversial procedure and is now being robbed in every following bureaucratic decision of the property rights that a child is entitled to.
In some community in Germany it is a friendly person who helps a surprisingly homeless friend and suddenly classified the social welfare office together with this as a community of needs, a clan like that is based on the actual help and from which a escape is very difficult.
In any city in Germany, it is the one who was injured by a judiciary who has no longer a chance from this judgment because the judiciary does not correct its own mistakes ... These are examples from a rule of law, in the numerous states on our planet, which are not recognized as legal states, this is even better or even worse for the person concerned.
The decision on Ai Weisweis Visa has been corrected because it is prominent enough for less prominent affected people no reason for envy: Ai Weiwei has been running a hard and dangerous struggle with exactly the goal for years/decades that all people in the world are right ...
If you want to congratulate Ai Weiwei to have the courage and strength to defend himself against wrong for so long and that after years he got his freedom again: Twitter @aiww , instagram.com/aiww .
There are many photos of Ai Weiwei and his son on Instagram on Friday, July 31, 2015 (probably at the time this article was written), the photo was hired, which shows a visibly exhausted but relaxed Ai Weiwei with his equally happy son in the swimming pool.
What do you wish for him? Three years of “break in the right -wing area”, as a visiting professor at the UDK, then return to China, to a regime in which he is not safe? Or expatriation by the Chinese rulers, a life full of longing for his homeland in Germany, with unhindered art and his son and without other harassment, but certainly not without further personal commitment to considering human rights in our world?
