China Expands Detention Facilities to Over 200 for Six Months Amid Human Rights Violations in Xi's Anti-Corruption Campaign
Jan 1, 2025, 08:42 AM
China has expanded its network of detention facilities, with over 200 centers built or enhanced to support President Xi Jinping's ongoing anti-corruption campaign. This form of detention, known as 'liuzhi', allows suspects to be held for up to six months without legal representation or contact with the outside world, raising concerns over human rights violations.

Critics have noted that these measures reflect systemic issues within the governance framework rather than isolated instances of corruption.
