On Sunday, Chinese officials raided a private residence where members of a church were holding a worship service. Three were injured in the police raid and six were detained afterward.

The Chinese government has started gathering people’s biometric data to track church attendance at different locations in Hubei province. The news adds to the growing list of human and religious rights violations being committed by the Chinese Communist Party.

Officials demolished a Chinese Christian church in Anhui province last Friday, interrupting the members in the middle of a worship service. Authorities also detained the church’s pastors, Geng Yimin and Sun Yongyao.
