On the morning of October 10, two Finnish news reporters went to the reception gate of the Supreme Court of China in Beijing. Their intention was to interview petitioners who had come to file complaints. They were swamped by a flood of people who wanted their voices to be heard. According to an eyewitness, City Foreign Affairs Police were quickly summoned and ordered to remove the reporters. The removal of the reporters angered the petitioners and they confronted the police. In the end, a large number of police were summoned to control the crowd. The reporters managed to escape from police custody under the help of the petitioners.
