Who is Cheng Lei and why is she being detained in China? Here's what we know
ABCCheng Lei, an Australian journalist working in China, is being detained by the Chinese Government, it has emerged. Ms Cheng was detained several days ago, on August 14, but we only learned about her case last night when Foreign Minister Marise Payne issued a statement. Ms Cheng is being held under what's called "residential surveillance at a designated location". While Ms Cheng's detention is notable because she is Australian, it is unusual for the Chinese Government to detain its own state media presenters.
