"ZHEIJIANG, CHINA – Christian Xu Jinghui of Jiaojiang District, Taizhou, filed suit against the Chinese government for unlawfully confiscating Christian literature and fining him 30,000 yuan ($4394.97). On August 21, 2009, Xu ordered the shipping of “Reading Materials of the Bible for Children” to other Christians out-of town. Before the shipping office could transfer the mail, authorities from the Public Security Bureau, Domestic Security Protection Squad, State Administration for Religious Affairs, and the Bureau of Culture arrived at the shipping company office on August 22 to halt the transder and to "pre-register" the Christian books. More than a month later, the Bureau of Culture made the administrative decision to confiscate the materials, stating Xu had violated Article 29 of 'Regulations on Publications.'"
