据法国媒体周五报道，被中国当局以受贿指控拘押在中国的前国际刑警组织主席孟宏伟的妻子格蕾丝?孟向法国寻求庇护。
前国际刑警组织主席孟宏伟2018年9月由法国前往中国后失踪，数周后，中国当局宣布孟宏伟涉嫌收受贿赂，正在接受调查。孟宏伟失踪后，他的妻子格蕾丝?孟依旧生活在国际刑警组织总部所在地、法国城市里昂。她在1月10日接受法国广播电台和《解放报》的采访时表示，她担心自己和两个7岁儿子的生命安全。
“我需要法国政府来保护我、协助我，来帮助我和我的孩子，”格蕾丝孟说，“我担心被绑架。”
格蕾丝?孟告诉法国媒体，去年 10月初，在她的丈夫被捕的消息公布之前，曾有两名中国商人去过她家，向经济学家出身的她咨询投资建议并邀请她乘坐私人飞机前往捷克，但遭到了她的拒绝。她认为这是绑架企图，此后便向法国警方寻求了保护。
格蕾丝?孟还说，去年10月底，中国驻里昂领事馆说他们收到了她丈夫的一封信，但坚持让她亲自去拿。她要求他们把信交给法国警方，或者让法国警方和她一起去领事馆，但没有收到回复。
在接受法国广播电台和《解放报》采访时，格蕾丝孟说，她没有收到丈夫或家人的任何消息，她的中国电话和互联网账户被屏蔽了。她同时表示自己接到过“奇怪的电话”，还曾经有一对中国夫妇尾随她进入一家酒店，试图收集有关她的信息。
格蕾丝?孟于周五正式向法国政府提交庇护请求。
孟宏伟在出任国际刑警组织主席之前曾任中国公安部副部长，被认为与前中共政治局常委周永康关系密切。
Wife of Chinese ex-Interpol chief seeks asylum in France: reports
1/18 AFP
The wife of the former Chinese Interpol chief being held in his home country on corruption charges has applied for asylum in France, media reports said Friday.
Grace Meng has remained in the French city of Lyon, the site of Interpol’s headquarters, since her husband Meng Hongwei disappeared — and was later revealed to have been arrested — while visiting China in September.
She told Franceinfo radio and the Liberation newspaper that she fears for her life and that of their twin sons, despite being under French police protection.
"I need the French government to protect me, to assist me, to help me and my children," she said.
"I am afraid of being kidnapped."
She was expected to officially apply for asylum on Friday.
Meng Hongwei, a former vice-minister for public security in China who rose through the ranks of the country’s feared security apparatus, was the first Chinese head of the international police organisation.
He was last heard from on September 25 as he left Lyon for China, when he sent his wife a social media message telling her to "wait for my call," and then a knife emoji signifying danger.
Grace Meng later reported he was missing, and after several days without news Interpol said it had received a short message from Meng saying he was resigning.
– ‘Kidnap attempt’ –
She told Liberation that two Chinese businessmen, one of whom she knew, had visited her at home in early October, before China revealed her husband had been arrested, and invited her to travel with them by private jet to the Czech Republic.
They asked her for investment advice because she was trained as an economist, but she turned them down, she said.
"That’s what I call a kidnap attempt," she said, adding that this was when she asked for police protection.
She also said that in late October the Chinese consulate in Lyon said they had a letter for her from her husband, but insisted she show up in person to collect it.
She asked that they hand the letter over to French police, or that French police be allowed to go with her to the consulate. She did not receive a response.
In the interview to Franceinfo and Liberation, given on January 10, she said that she had received no news of her husband or of her family back home, and that her Chinese phone and internet accounts had been blocked.
She had also received "strange phone calls", she said, and was once followed into a hotel by a Chinese couple who attempted to gather information about her.
China’s public security bureau has linked Meng’s detention to a broader initiative to "completely remove the pernicious influence" of Zhou Yongkang, a former security czar who was sentenced to life in prison in 2015 for bribery, abuse of power and leaking state secrets.
Meng was appointed vice-minister of security by Zhou in 2004.
He was replaced as Interpol chief by South Korea’s Kim Jong-yang

Wife of Interpol president who disappeared on a trip to China pleads for asylum in France after revealing she has been ‘followed’ and fears being kidnapped

The wife of Interpol chief, Meng Hongwei, is seeking asylum in France for her and her children after her husband was mysteriously detained by Chinese authorities.
Her husband disappeared under clandestine circumstances while on a home visit to China last year, with the government taking weeks to admit that they detained him under bribe-taking charges.
Now, Grace Meng wants asylum for her and her twin seven-year-old boys. They currently live in Lyon, Interpol’s headquarter city.
Mrs Meng, who opts not to show her face in interviews, and the children are under police protection, having received threats.
Meng Hongwei, a former vice-minister for public security in China who rose through the ranks of the country’s feared security apparatus, was the first Chinese head of the international police organisation.
He was last heard from on September 25 as he left Lyon for China, when he sent his wife a social media message telling her to ‘wait for my call’, later sending a knife emoji.
Mrs Meng said she believes the knife emoji was to let her know that her husband was in danger.
Grace Meng later reported he was missing, and after several days without news Interpol said it had received a short message from Meng saying he was resigning.
China’s new National Supervision Commission, an anti-corruption agency, said Mr Meng was being investigated for ‘violation of laws’.
‘I think the anti-corruption campaign in China has already been damaged. It has become a way of attacking people who are your enemy,’ said Mrs Meng during an interview in Lyon.
She told Liberation newspaper that two Chinese businessmen, one of whom she knew, had visited her at home in early October, before China revealed her husband had been arrested, and invited her to travel with them by private jet to the Czech Republic.
They asked her for investment advice because she was trained as an economist, but she turned them down, she said.
‘That’s what I call a kidnap attempt,’ she said, adding that this was when she asked for police protection.
She also said that in late October the Chinese consulate in Lyon said they had a letter for her from her husband, but insisted she show up in person to collect it.
She asked that they hand the letter over to French police, or that French police be allowed to go with her to the consulate. She did not receive a response.

Meng was appointed vice-minister of security by Zhou in 2004.
He was replaced as Interpol chief by South Korea’s Kim Jong-yang.
It’s not uncommon for individuals who speak out against the government to disappear in China, but the scope of the ‘disappeared’ has expanded since President Xi Jinping came to power in 2013.
Not only dissidents and activists, but also high-level officials, Marxists, foreigners and even a movie star, people who never publicly opposed the ruling Communist Party, have been whisked away by police to unknown destinations.
