Hong Kong Book Publisher

The United States on Saturday expressed deep concern about the case of Hong Kong book publisher Gui Minhai, allegedly snatched by Chinese police while being accompanied by Swedish diplomats.

Over 4,000 people marched in Hong Kong today to protest against China's detention of five booksellers whose shop published gossipy books about Chinese leaders, including President Xi Jinping.

A Hong Kong man linked to a bookshop that published books critical of China's leaders has returned to the financial hub after going missing more than six months ago, Hong Kong police said today.

For years Gui Minhai, a China-born publisher of tabloid books on China's leaders, had believed he could live and work overseas on a Swedish passport without fear of persecution by Chinese authorities, which ban such works on the mainland.

Hong Kong publishers and vendors of books on Chinese politics that are banned in China are unnerved by the mysterious disappearances of five booksellers, and in some cases pulling books critical of Beijing's leaders from their shelves.

The disappearance of five Hong Kong booksellers has sent shivers through Hong Kong as anxiety grows that Chinese control over the city is tightening.

Hong Kong pro-democracy lawmakers said today that they will press the government for answers after a fifth employee of a publisher specializing in books critical of mainland China's leadership went missing.
