From AP, via Columbia Daily Tribune: “Authorities are recording the name of anyone visiting a makeshift memorial at the Beijing home of ousted Communist Party leader Zhao Ziyang, who died this week, a relative said yesterday.
Zhao, 85, lived under house arrest for 15 years after being purged for expressing support for pro-democracy demonstrators who occupied Tiananmen Square in May 1989, shortly before Chinese troops killed hundreds, maybe thousands, of the protesters.
“Even more road blocks and police,” read a cell phone text message from a family member. ‘People are led into a small coffee shop to have their names recorded before they are let in.'”
