Petition updateFree Zhang Kai - a Christian human rights lawyer imprisoned in ChinaCrosses still being demolished, Zhang Kai still detained
Release International
Mar 16, 2016
After the Chinese authorities recently paraded Zhang Kai ‘confessing’ his crimes, he remains in detention and the authorities continue the demolition of church crosses. Release partners China Aid report that, since the beginning of March, approximately 10 more crosses have been torn down across Wenzhou in Zhejiang province. They also report that other churches which have managed to protect their crosses from demolition teams have had water and electricity turned off by the city. China Aid now estimate that around 2,000 church crosses have been demolished in Zhejiang since April 2014 as a result of this ongoing campaign of ‘beautification’ by the authorities. Zhang Kai used legal means to try and contest these demolitions but he now remains in detention. Thank you again for signing the petition. Please let others know and encourage them to sign also. Let’s do everything we can to help Zhang Kai. #freezhangkai
