Missing Hong Kong bookseller Gui Minhai ‘released’, but family cannot find him

Confusion surrounds claim that seller of banned books who disappeared in 2015 has been freed, after family says no one has heard from him

Confusion erupted over the fate of missing Hong Kong-based bookseller Gui Minhai following his “release” from custody in mainland China last week, two years after he disappeared while on holiday in Thailand.

Gui’s daughter, Angela, said he was not necessarily free, as he had neither been seen nor heard from since his release last Tuesday and might have “disappeared again”.
