3.1) CCP state security agents are responsible for the death of a house church translator Joseph
Zhu in Seoul, South Korea.
Mr. Zhu Meng ("Joseph"), a leader of a house church in Beijing, did lots of translation work for
house churches. One of the American Christian NGOs based in Seoul, South Korea, a partner of
China Aid ministries, hired a young Chinese house church member in Beijing Joseph Zhu for
translation work in July 2018.
After working in Seoul, South Korea for three months, On October 5, 2018, Joseph made a trip to
China to get his visa matter straightened out and his winter clothes back. He was scheduled to be
back very soon. In the early morning the next day, that NGO in Seoul received text messages from
Joseph. It was sent at 2:20 am, October 6:
"ucmenomore,D ie".
It turned out that Joseph was kidnapped and arrested by the Chinese Ministry of State
Security (MSS) agents as soon as he landed in Beijing. He was interrogated and tortured
enormously in secret torture chamber in Beijing.
The whole interrogation centered around his relationship and work with American mission
organizations. Totally broken, he confessed everything. Then, MSS agents forced Joseph to return
to Seoul on the return flight (OZ336) on
October 8, at 20:10. We learned Joseph was tortured for 12 hours nonstop by the MSS agents. MSS
agents showed him the Christian book he translated and talked about what a danger it would be if
it spread in China; ultimately the CCP agents told him he had "no choice" but to return to Korea
and spy on mission organizations. They gave him a spyware programmed IPad with 20,000 yuan
RMB in cash and told him to gather all the information they listed for him. After Joseph returned
to South Korea, he continued
receiving multiple threatening messages from the Chinese MSS agents sent via WeChat and
through his friends indicating that his parents could be hurt if he failed to cooperate with MSS.
