Government officials have repeatedly harassed a Christian leader in China’s southern Guangdong province. On July 16th, they lured her into the police station for questioning. Furthermore, the next day, they went to her home and demanded that her landlord let them in. The landlord complied, and the officials stole several items. Just weeks prior to this incident, officials raided the church leader’s church services, demanding them to stop the service, and then officers confiscated religious materials.
