As with the many of the other stories he investigates and blogs, Zola’s filmed an interview with the key figure in the matter; in this case, the dead boy’s father. It’s a clip just begging for someone to give it English subtitles. [...] [...] Next he goes to Foshan in southern Guangdong province to investigate the Liao Zusheng case.

I haven't been following this story so closely lately, and the only place I've seen it mentioned since was on Sina blogger Han Han's (韩寒) blog here: http://blog.sina.com.cn/u/4701280b010006cq, and fortunately still seem to be no shortage of comments there.

How so ridiculous for a country like china to talk of democracy and legislation and human right when its people can even hardly talk over a murder on the internet.

Instead, the regional newspapers are ordered to publish the same rubbish that accused the son of having committed a crime and then killing himself, without any solid evidence. There's still light though. Apparently from the author's blog, other journalists have published articles on national newspapers harshly criticizing the gag order. As long as the media are not 100% silenced, there's hope that the truth will come out someday. It is shocking that the PSB and propaganda dept have put a gag order on regional journalists.
