💨 Abstract

Chinese authorities have arrested a 27-year-old man, Mei Shilin, for displaying pro-democracy banners in Chengdu, southwest China. Mei is suspected of having overseas connections and is currently under criminal detention, a common practice in China for individuals suspected of "endangering national security." This detention often involves extended periods of monitoring, interrogations, and potential torture.
