（四川-2018年5月28日）成都秋雨圣约教会王怡牧师、李英强传道等多名信徒，本周一（5月28日）上午前往该市曹家巷派出所，就宋恩光弟兄在5.12汶川地震十周年日被殴打之事，进行交涉。在派出所门口遭遇警察暴力对待，12名信徒被以“涉嫌扰乱社会治安”，抓到派出所传唤。本新闻网记者致电该派出所查询信徒被捕原因，接听电话的公安称“正在处理”，但拒绝披露具体原因。
成都秋雨圣约教会在本月中旬纪念汶川5.12地震十周年日，遭到公安冲击。其中一位信徒宋恩光被警察抽打30多耳光，本周一（5月28日）上午九时15分，该教会王怡牧师、李英强传道、覃德富执事、丁道尔弟兄、叶隐弟兄、张起弟兄和律师周勇，前往当地曹家巷派出所交涉，要求警方就宋恩光两周前被殴打的事宜，作出交代，却被公安扣留。
当天下午，秋雨圣约教会长老发出紧急代祷称，下午三点半左右，王怡牧师的妻子蒋蓉，作为家属到曹家巷派出所查询丈夫等人的情况。蒋蓉师母问警察：
“因为512 你们有人行凶，他们今天是为此前了查询，你们为什么把他们也抓进去?”，一名警号为8194的警察回复称:“行凶是你们自己的说法，你们没有证据”。
在场的该教会同工和信徒聚集到派出所询问，警察突然再度抓人。在毫无防备的情况下，安彦魁传道、葛迎锋执事以及其他10位弟兄姊妹，被警察粗暴地强行带进派出所，另有十多人被驱赶。警号为008194的警员粗暴扭打安彦魁传道。有信徒目睹在派出所接受盘问的信徒中，有两人位被带到卫生间，眼镜被摘，戴着手铐。警察称，被询问者未被拘留，目前在审查阶段，传唤理由是“涉嫌扰乱社会治安”。
对华援助新闻网记者于下午5时14分致电成都曹家巷派出所，向一位女警员查询被抓的12人情况，她称：
“正在处理当中，具体情况问成都市公安局政治部”：“事情正在处理中，我们不在电话中回答问题，也不接受采访。如果你有问题，请打电话到市公安局政治处联系”。
记者：他们会不会被拘留？
警察：不好意思，请你跟我们公安机关联系，我们不接受采访。
现场视频显示，十多名信徒在派出所门口唱歌祷告，警察在旁拍摄及试图阻止。现场信徒称，警察见弟兄姊妹不愿离开，开始打人、抓人，一部分人被逐离现场。期间有人被扭打及辱骂。
记者截稿前，尚未12名被抓信徒的确切消息。
该事件的近期背景追溯可至5月12日，秋雨圣约教会因举行5.12汶川大地震十周年祷告会，遭到一百多名警察冲击，教会被取缔，一万五千册圣经等基督教书籍、近千张光盘被扣。两百多名信徒被带到多个派出所传唤一日，至当晚获释。

The police arrested dozens of Christians from the Early Rain Covenant Church
(Sichuan-2018-5-28)
During Monday morning (May 28th), Pastor Wang Yi, Preacher Li Yingqiang and a large group of church members went to the Caojiaxiang Police Station to negotiate about the beating of Song Guangen on the 10th anniversary of the Chengdu earth quake. The police treated the visiting Christians brutally in front of the police station, arresting 12 church members with the charge of “disrupting social orders.” The reporter of China Aid Association called the police station to inquire about the incident, and the police who picked up the phone claimed that they were “processing” the case, refusing to disclose more details.
In mid May, the police interrupted the Early Rain Covenant Church’s commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the Chengdu earth quake, slapping a church member called Song Enguang more than thirty times on the face. At 9:15 a.m. on Monday (May 28th), Wang Yi the pastor, Li Yingqiang the preacher, Qin Defu the director, Brother Ding Daoer, Brother Ye Yin, Brother Zhang Qi and Zhou Yong the lawyer visited the Caojiaxiang Church, demanding the police to explain the beating of Song Enguang two weeks ago. The police detained the visiting Christians.
In the afternoon, the elders of the Early Rain Covenant Church poste an urgent prayer letter. At about 3:30 p.m., Wang Yi’s wife Jiang Rong went to the Caojiaxiang Police Station to inquire about her husband and other church members who visited earlier. Jiang Rong asked the police: “They came here today, because you used violence on May 12th. Why did you arrest them?”
A police with the ID number 8194 refuted: “It’s your own wording. You don’t have any evidence.”
The co-workers and church members gathered at the police station for information, but the police began to arrest once again. Caught unexpectedly, An Yankui the preacher, Ge Yingfeng the director and ten other brothers and sisters were brought into the police station brutally. Other church members present were evicted. The police with the ID number of 008194 beat An Yankui. Some church members saw two detained Christians with handcuffs being brought to the restroom. The police forcibly took off their glasses. According to the police, they had not formally detained the Christians; instead, the police were still interrogating them with the accusation of “disrupting social orders.”
At 5:14 p.m., the reporter from the China Aid Association called the Caojiaxiang Police Station of Chengdu and inquired about the arrest of the twelve Christians. A female police picked up the phone. She claimed: “We are still processing of the case. For more information, you should call the department of political affairs of the Chengdu Public Security Department. We won’t answer questions through the phone. Nor will we accept any interviews.”
Reporter: “Will they be detained?”
Police on duty: “Excuse me. You should contact the public security department. We won’t accept interviews.”
According to videos of the scene, more than ten Christians sang hymns in front of the police station. Some police were taking videos, while others were trying to stop the Christians. The church members told the reporter that the police began to beat and arrest the Christians, who were unwilling to leave. Some church members were evicted. Some were beaten and cursed.
The reporter did not receive any news about the twelve arrested church members before submitting the article.
On May 12th, the Early Rain Covenant Church were holding a commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the Chengdu earth quake when more than a hundred police broke in and interrupted the gathering. The police closed the church and confiscated 15,000 copies of the Bible and other Christian materials and a thousand DVDs. More than two hundred church members were detained at the police station for a day and were released during evening.
