I have a very important position in this city.
As the president of the China Nigeria Commerce Association, I was approached by Mr Quan Shin.
And he told me to change the evidence to protect his nephew.
Mr Quan Shin is the head of the security division in Guangdong.
He threatened all of our lives here.
He said the witnesses will be deported, incarcerated, everything, if they did not sign.
He even threatened me with deportation.

But Mr Adiola will be executed.
If you do not do, what I tell you.

We try to do the best we can.

- We are all very poor men doing the best for our families back home in Nigeria.
Your families in Nigeria are not my problem.
I should let him take this to the police.
- They will execute me.
- And I shall let them do it.
You are destroying my life here.
Mr Lin If I ask these boys to sign We will be signing away our lives here.
We will be forsaking our families.
They will not do it.
Make them do it.
Mr Lin, I am begging you, please.
Okay.
I will agree.
- I will do this.
Leave it with me.
- I will wait.
But two of the men are not here.
- Call the others.
- They may not be able too come.
Not my problem.
This is making me happy.
This is making me at peace with my God.
Thank you.
The boy deserves the truth.
Everyone deserves the truth.

I will be free.
Is it really true? The judges will have no choice but to accept the new statements.
And you have a new lawyer for the appeal.
Her name is Cheng Hua.
She will be at the Higher court for you.
Everyone is supporting me now.
She is so happy, that we are all together at last.
Now we can really start to dream.

- Well, we're pleased to hear that honey.
But what is happening? What is not happening.
You telling us anything that is happening.
The detective we hired, has now got all the witnesses to make new statements in support of Ajun.
Really? Oh, that's wonderful.
And we're ready for the court.
For the appeal.
It's amazing.
- It's amazing.
- Does that mean he's going to be released? That's what the lawyers have told me.
- Yes.
- That is wonderful.
So, thank you.
Thank you.
Have you spoken to Mr.
Anderson? I don't want to speak to him.
We think that you should call him.
Why? Why? Because none of us know where you are.
Where are you, Mei? I'm at Qianyi's.
I've been staying with her for couple of days.
But you are not answering your phone.
I'm sorry.
It's just been crazy.
Are you all right? You are not.
Are you? Have you seen your mother again? Yes.
Yes I have.
I have.
It's not that.
- Mei, what's going on? - I'm okay.
I'm okay.
I went to the orphanage with her.
Right.
It was She cried and I held her and It was lovely.
It's like a pain in me, all these years, gone.
That's what it was like.
I can understand that.
And now, if I can get Ajun out of prison and free for her It would be the best thing, I could ever do in my life.
The best thing ever.
Sounds like your going to achieve that.
Yes, I am.
I couldn't have abandoned her and come home.
I had to do this.
Mei, we are coming out to see you.
We are going to London now to pick up our visas.
Why? - Because - You don't have to do that.
Well, we are.
We are doing it.
And the flight's all booked and we will be coming out - and - Mom, dad, you don't have to do this.
By the time you get here, I will be coming home.
No, it's already booked.
It's - We are ready to go.
- No! I'm okay.
Please let me do this on my own.
It looks very positive.
Members of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, are coming from Beijing.
To open the government's anti-corruption campaign here, on the 31st.
This is a request for the newspaper, I work for to publicize the event.
It says that, "we, all citizens, all officials, will be given the opportunity to report anyone attempting to engage in unlawful activities, harming the correct administration of justice or the image of the People's Court.
" - This is good timing.
- It is perfect timing.
The campaign is due to start after Li Jun's case.
But what I can do, is run the campaign before his case.
And that will paralyze any attempt by Quan Phong, to subvert our evidence.
We're doing okay.
Mei, I believe we can free your brother.
But There may be consequences on me and my colleagues.
So could you do something for us? I have a contact at the New York Times, who is ready to tell our story.
As a British and American citizen, your unique situation can give her the angle she needs.
If she calls you, would you help her? It will bring us support and put our movement on the map, in Europe and America.
Would you do that for us? - Yes.
- Thank you.
In case of Li Jun, the night club waiter sentenced to death for killing a Nigerian trader, 11 witnesses have changed their evidence claiming that they were coerced into giving their original statements, under the orders of a senior provincial official.
In response, the party central committee in Beijing has sent out a stern warning, to the citizens and officials of Guangdong province Any citizen or officer of the law attempting to corrupt the courts will be arrested and will face a sentence of life imprisonment.
Quan Shin is only a provincial boss.
With Beijing breathing down his neck, he's nothing.
He's beat.
- Look, the kiosk is almost finished.
- When will she hear? She's just wanting Ajun to come home.
- - - - - - - - Did you know this wouldn't work? Your friend asked me about publicizing your group, to the New York Times, if things didn't work out.
Have you been using me? Did you get me here to help your cause or to help my brother? Mr Lin.
I thought we can't visit now.
I don't understand.
I didn't understand why she is looking so worried.
Because the opportunity to visit is only given before the execution.
That is why she is so upset.
So, when is this visit? Tuesday.
This Tuesday.
Good morning.
You don't understand the trouble you are in.
There's nothing anyone can do.
Least of all you.
The Chinese authorities will come for you, if you do not leave the country.
