AP via YahooNews.com, 11/11/2005
Julius Jia Zhiguo, an elderly bishop in the underground Roman Catholic Church, was detained in the northern city of Zhengding on Wednesday, the U.S.-based Cardinal Kung Foundation reported. A spokesman for the Zhengding Public Security Bureau denied that such an arrest had been made. According to the Foundation, however, this is the eighth time that Julius has been detained in the past two years because of his refusal to affiliate with the State-controlled Catholic Patriotic Association.
