Chinese Protest Leaders Charged. Mentioned in this earlier report, they include Yao Fuxin, who refused to cooperate with authorities, and Wang Zhaoming. According to the earlier article, Wang was released last week, but ordered both to stay away from other workers and to spy on them. This time, he "was taken into custody again on Tuesday after he hired an attorney to sue the police over his nine-month detention." I did leave something out below: it's common for the police to arrest anyone who sues them.
