Liu Xiaobo’s wife Liu Xia (刘霞) was granted a short visit to her husband in custody on 1 January 2009, according to Liu’s lawyer Mo Shaoping (莫少平).
Radio Free Asia’s Chinese service has a report, and Underthejacaranda translated various sections of it.
(And it’s much shorter without the visible tagging – see underneath – too!)
