On the 21st of March, Yuzhong District Ethnic and Religious Affairs Bureau led more than thirty personnel from the police, state security, and local district offices to raid the Mount Olive Church in Chongqing. They sent the members home and sealed the church without showing any legal documents. Pastor Zhu Dong and several leaders were brought to the police station.

On the 24th of March, the same group descended on the church again without any proper documents and removed the church’s property, including chairs and books. In the photos shared by China Aid, there were moving trucks outside of the church loaded with the church’s property.

This was not the first time the church was harassed. In January 2018, the Mt Olive Reformed School founded by the church was also raided and sealed for being an “illegal venue for proselytisation.”
