Source conflicts and limitations
The formal criminal charge has not been publicly documented; these records do not state it, and it is not inferred. The report’s account of the trial (insufficient evidence at first hearing, additional evidence gathered at the procuratorate’s direction) is the outlet’s reporting and is presented as reported, not as an independently verified court record. Whether co-defendants Chen Zhongcun and Feng Zhixian were taken back into custody after their release on bail was unclear at the time of reporting. No PRC official or state-media coverage of this case has been found.
