Gui Minhai, a Chinese-born Swedish citizen known for publishing gossipy titles about Chinese political leaders out of a Hong Kong book shop, disappeared while on holiday in Thailand in 2015 before resurfacing in mainland China. “In this specific consular matter, she has exceeded her mandate and has therefore rendered herself criminally liable,” Ihrman said.
