Xiao Guozhen, a Beijing lawyer, was summoned for a police interrogation, which she thought might be because of her lead role in forming a group of attorneys to investigate the purported suicide of activist Li Wangyang. She issued an emergency notice stating that she might be taken away and announced that she would not commit suicide. In addition, her online article “Shifang! Shifang!” was removed from the site where it was posted. The article quoted Chinese law and pointed out that Shifang police using force to suppress the protesters "constitutes a crime committed by public authorities.” Xiao also called for a “5 Requirement Solution” to the clashes between the police and the protesters in Shifang.
