A prominent investigator who faced censure by Chinese security forces for looking into the shoddy construction of schools that collapsed in the Sichuan earthquake of 2008 has voiced his support for the “Brave 300”—a group of villages that put their real names to a petition calling for the release of a local Falun Gong practitioner.

The case against Wang Xiaodong, the detained Falun Gong practitioner from rural China whose arrest inspired 300 fellow villagers to petition the Communist Communist Party calling for his release, has been returned to the local Public Security Bureau after the prosecutor said it lacked evidence, according to a person familiar with the matter.
