Chinese SOS letter found in socks at British clothing store
| Core facts The writer of the letter claimed that he was framed and abused by the government and is now being held in a detention center in Anhui to produce these socks. Wu Qingbao, vice president of the Beijing Jurisprudence Society, said in an interview with the Global Times on the 22nd that China does not allow prisoners serving sentences to manufacture import and export products. Several British media reported that local residents have recently found "help letters" from China in socks purchased from the clothing chain Primark. The writer of the letter claimed that he was framed and abused by the government and is now being held in a detention center in Anhui to produce these socks. Primark clothing store staff said in an interview with the Global Times on the 22nd that this matter has nothing to do with their products, employees and Chinese suppliers, and is a ridiculous "prank". According to the British Daily Mail on the 21st, Akbar, a 24-year-old young man, recently bought a pair of black socks at the Primark clothing chain in Newcastle, northern England, and found a Chinese letter hidden inside. After translating the content of the letter into English, he found that it was a "desperate help letter." The letter writer, Ding, claimed to be from Anhui, 39 years old, was falsely accused of suspected extortion and is now forcibly detained. Akbar said he was shocked by this and felt obliged to make the matter public. The Daily Mail said that the same letter also appeared in the socks bought by another customer of Primark clothing store in Hadfield last week. A similar incident happened in June this year. A Primark spokesman said that their products were "kidnapped" and some people wanted to use this to achieve specific publicity purposes. A Global Times reporter called a Primark store in central London on the 22nd. The staff said that the letter writer might want to get out of trouble in this way, but such personal behavior has nothing to do with them. "The letter may be stuffed in some links after the product is produced, such as during transportation or when it is packed at the port. There are too many loopholes that can be exploited." Wu Qingbao, vice president of the Beijing Jurisprudence Society, said in an interview with the Global Times on the 22nd that China does not allow prisoners serving sentences to manufacture import and export trade products. He said that some places would allow them to participate in the production of industrial supplies and daily consumer goods, but according to regulations, enterprises cannot export such products. |
