This morning (29th), the police arrested a number of senior and former senior staff of the company, took many people away to assist in the investigation, and seized a number of computers and some documents at the Stand News Office. Stand News has provided assistance to those involved.
In response to the situation, Position News ceased operation immediately, including the website and all social media immediately stopped updating, and will be removed within a day. Acting editor-in-chief Lin Shaotong has resigned, and all employees of Position News have been dismissed immediately.
