Source conflicts and limitations
The July 2025 arrest facts come from Christian human-rights reporting (ChinaAid and the Voice of the Martyrs); the reports’ language on the arrest circumstances is recorded as those sources report it and has not been independently verified. No PRC court judgment, police notice, or state-media coverage of the case was located. No charge, indictment status, trial date, facility for the current detention beyond the July 2025 Chuxiong Detention Center report, or age is on record — none is inferred. ChinaAid’s report that Pu and Zhu were taken from residences while on a family visit in Suzhou is recorded as reported and is not independently corroborated. The Rights Defense Network’s monthly report is an independent roster listing of people it counts as in custody as of August 31, 2026.
