On July 22, 2025, a school bullying incident occurred in Jiangyou City, Sichuan Province. Three underage girls lured a 14-year-old girl named Lai into an abandoned building, where they beat her, verbally abused her, and forced her to undress—while filming the violence and uploading it online. The video began to circulate widely in early August, sparking intense public attention. In response, the city of Jiangyou witnessed multiple waves of spontaneous protests by residents, which were met with repeated police crackdowns. Numerous demonstrators were forcibly removed, and related videos were widely censored.
July 22: Bullying Incident Filmed and Uploaded by Perpetrators
On August 4, the Jiangyou Public Security Bureau released an official report stating that on the afternoon of July 22, three girls—15-year-old Liu, 13-year-old Liu, and 14-year-old Peng—lured the victim into an abandoned building in Jiangyou’s urban area, where they slapped her, kicked her, and forced her to remove her clothing. The abuse was filmed and uploaded by other students present. The victim sustained injuries to her head and knees, which were officially classified as minor.
According to the report, Liu and Peng received administrative punishments and were sent to specialized correctional schools, while Liu (13) and bystanders were given warnings and “educational criticism.” The victim was said to have received psychological counseling.
August 2: Viral Video and Perpetrators’ Remarks Enrage Public
On the evening of August 2, the bullying video spread widely on social media. In the video, one of the perpetrators said, “Do you think we’re afraid of the police? It’s not like we haven’t been there—we’ll be out in 20 minutes.” This statement immediately triggered massive public outrage.
Online posts claimed that the victim’s parents are deaf-mute and had repeatedly sought help from the local police, but received no meaningful response.
August 4: Police Report Released, No Mention of Criminal Charges
At 08:22 on August 4, Jiangyou police released their official account of the incident, confirming the general facts and describing the administrative actions taken. However, no criminal charges were mentioned, prompting widespread criticism. Many questioned whether the lenient handling was due to connections or background protections of the perpetrators’ families.
August 4 Afternoon: Thousands Gather at City Hall to Support the Victim
That afternoon, thousands of Jiangyou residents—mainly parents, bystanders, and young people—gathered in front of the city government to support Lai and her family, demanding strict punishment for the perpetrators. The gathering was peaceful at first, with people singing the national anthem and holding signs or recording the event on their phones.
August 4 Evening: Black-Clad Men Assist Police in Forcibly Dispersing Crowd
As night fell, individuals dressed in black and of unknown identity appeared to coordinate with law enforcement. Police began dispersing the crowd by force, detaining those who recorded or chanted. Some videos showed citizens being loaded into livestock transport trucks, prompting others to shout “violent law enforcement!”
August 5 Early Morning: Overnight Crackdown, Protesters Injured
Crowds continued to gather around the city government into the early morning hours. Police escalated their actions, deploying pepper spray and physically assaulting protesters. Some citizens were beaten and left bleeding on the ground. One livestreamer on Douyin (TikTok China) was assaulted by several officers, causing the stream to abruptly cut off.
August 5, 2–3 AM: Suspected Military Signal Jamming Vehicle Appears; Social Media Blackout Follows
Footage posted by netizens showed a suspected military-grade signal jamming vehicle entering the city. Simultaneously, checkpoints were established at malls, KTVs, and other public spaces to prevent photography or recording. Social media platforms quickly removed related videos, and the search term “Jiangyou bullying” became restricted.
August 6: Authorities Remain Silent on Detainee Status
As of this report’s publication, Jiangyou authorities have not released any list of detained protesters or explained the legal basis for the arrests and use of force on August 4–5. No press conference has been held, and no state media outlet has conducted on-the-ground reporting.
