Wang Ce is a veteran Chinese democracy activist who lived in exile in Spain and returned to China in 1998. Contemporaneous international reporting documented his detention in Hangzhou after contact with democracy activist Wang Youcai, his later four-year prison sentence, and his early release in 2002.
Judgment evidence: A full-text reproduction of the Hangzhou Intermediate People’s Court criminal judgment (1999) Hang Xing Chu Zi No. 1 has now been located in a later documentary compilation. The reproduced text records the custody and sentencing chronology and names witnesses including Wang Youcai, Chen Guangming, Li Guifang, Deng Huanwu and Huang Heqing. This is a derivative reproduction, not an authenticated scan of the original court judgment; acquisition of the original judgment remains open.
Evidence note: Separate organization-history sources connect him to overseas democracy organizations, including a 1993 congress that elected him chair of one branch of the China Freedom and Democracy Party, but exact organization lineage, merger history, titles and tenure dates remain subject to primary-source verification. This profile keeps press evidence, organization self-history and later recollection distinct. Corrections and primary-source contributions are welcome.
