The New York Times\u2019 Didi Kirsten Tatlow reports that Chinese authorities have dropped bail conditions for the<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/span>\u00a0five feminist activists<\/strong><\/a> who were\u00a0released last April<\/a>\u00a0after being\u00a0detained ahead of International Women\u2019s Day for planning protests aimed at ending sexual harassment on public transport<\/a>. Their bail conditions subject them to significant restrictions<\/a> after release. Despite the dropping of bail conditions,\u00a0the five women–Li Tingting, Wu Rongrong, Wei Tingting, Wang Man, and Zheng Churan–are still regarded as criminal suspects.<\/p>\n

One of the conditions of the women\u2019s release from detention last year was that they not travel from their legal place of residence. Also, each had to provide a personal guarantor for her conduct. Both were lifted on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very disappointed that they did not drop the case,\u201d Mr. Chen said outside the detention center after the meeting, as security guards from a nearby village ordered him, the women and reporters to leave. Guards also tried to stop reporters from photographing and filming.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut they are free to go where they like,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

[…]\u00a0On Wednesday, the police also returned belongings they had confiscated last year when they detained the women. But Ms. Li said they had not returned one of three laptops and a mobile phone they had taken from her. In protest, she refused to take receipt of her belongings, she said.<\/p>\n

The charge facing the women carries a maximum prison term of five years, meaning that, under Chinese law, they may still face criminal prosecution during five years from the time of their detention. [Source<\/a><\/strong>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On Twitter, Tatlow posted a series of photos of the activists in Haidian, Beijing:<\/p>\n
