Boxun reports that the Hubei Province Macheng City Finance Bureau director Zhang Renli owned a store and turned off the water supply and beat its occupants.

According to the parties involved, on the evening of Monday July 27 the hair salon’s water supply suddenly stopped. Because the water continued as usual in both neighboring shops, it was clear that the water was being turned off at the source. When the female employee called the shop owner, he came to the shop with his son and dragged her outside and beat her. The police came but the store owner continued to beat the woman in the police officer’s presence. When asked why he was beating her he said he was the city finance bureau director and could do what he wants.
