    Pg. 18:

    Ye is the former mayor of Chuanliao Town Government in Qingtian County, Zhejiang. Accused of bribery, he fled to Milan, Italy, in July 2001.

    In December 2014, the Zhejiang Public Security Department and the Protectorate sent a joint working group to Italy and Spain to carry out persuade to return operations of fugitives from the Lishui and Wenzhou areas.

    After being persuaded face-to-face by the working group, Ye flew back to China with the working group to surrender himself on December 23, 2014.

    Nothing alleged here is remotely objectionable.

      That’s the quote from the linked article in footnote 19, not allegation, read below.

        …what?

        I’m referencing the actual report you just linked to. I quoted a section of the report that provides an example of the conduct it criticizes. It’s nothing; the report is bullshit.

          You quoted the section of the report that quotes the linked articles. Apart from the transcript font used, it also links to the footnote.

              You didn’t. You quoted the official statement of the Chinese government, which was quoted in the report. It was not an example provided by the report authors. Their examples and argument is below the quoted section. I’m not sure if you are just misunderstanding or pretending to misunderstand. But in any case, you are welcome to your opinion that the report is “bullshit”. But that is not a good argument if you want to bring someone to your way of thinking. You need more objective details for that.

                Ah, I see. What page of the report gives the authors’ version of what actually happened in those cases, or gives an example of something that could be described as kidnapping?
