Event scope

The two were arrested after a private gathering and convicted of subversion; UN mechanisms raised fair-trial and torture concerns.

Verifiable timeline

• Public policy, custody, or enforcement records establish the starting point.
• Available documents identify institutions and procedures.
• External allegations or findings and Chinese government responses remain separate.
• Later judgment, release, employment, or continuing control is not collapsed into the initial phase.

Institutions and mechanisms

The event connects formal law, Party or administrative tasks, grassroots execution, and information control. Responsibility is recorded through deciding body, implementer, place, data, and public account.

Government response

Chinese laws, white papers, or case replies are included where available. When no direct response was found, the file records only the applicable general government position.

Unresolved questions

The full command chain, undisclosed evidence, individual voluntariness, and local variation require further primary records. ^{[1] [2]}
