Pastor Dong Quanyu was released on March 16 after serving ten days of administrative detention in the Wancheng Detention Centre in Nanyang, Henan, according to a March 16 report from China Aid Association. Dong was arrested along with thirty-six other Christian leaders but was the only one sentenced in connection with the "illegal gathering."
Three days after Dong's release, his wife Li Huage (50) was arrested and sentenced to ten days' detention for allegedly "disturbing public order." Li was arrested at the office of the Wancheng District Public Security Bureau as she was seeking the return of her cell phone, computer and Bibles, which were confiscated during the March 6 raid of her home.
