BEIJING, CHINA (BosNewsLife)— Chinese Christians are suing authorities to regain items confiscated during a recent police raid on their congregation in China’s Jiangsu Province amid reports of an ongoing police crackdown on unregistered house churches, religious rights investigators said Wednesday, May 9.

China Aid Association, a US-based advocacy group which represents several house churches, told BosNewsLife that that house church members Cui Chengnan and Liu Riguo in the city of Kunshan demand that the Kunshan Municipal Public Security Bureau returns items and donated money confiscated during its raid on the house church on April 29.

About 20 policemen from Kunshan Municipal Public Security Bureau declared their meeting "an illegal assembly" and confiscated a notebook computer, a projector, a DVD player, a stereo installation, a microphone, Bibles and other materials, CAA said. "They also took away the donation box after failing to break it open," the group added.
