Boxun reports that Tiananmen Square is guarded by many security personnel in plain clothes. These include soldiers and police masquerading as tourists, mixing in with the usual mix of travellers. Both males and females conduct this work. Some work alone, some in groups. They speak with accents from all over the country. This reporter is old friends with one of the plainclothes officers and had the opportunity to observe them at close range. The following video and images are from Friday October 30, when a protester named Li Jinping displayed a banner calling for the rehabilitation of former Communist Party general secretary Zhao Ziyang. He was quickly detained by three plainclothes officers masquerading as tourists taking photographs and quickly bundled into a waiting police van.
