Former Kpop boy group member Wu Yi Fan (Kris Wu) has been detained by the China police on suspicion of rape. According to the Beijing Chao Yang public security bureau, Wu Yi Fan is now under criminal detention.

The case is now being further investigated,” Beijing Chao Yang public security bureau said in a statement on Weibo. The statement has 9.6 million likes and 7.4 million shares at the time of writing.
Previously on 9 July, a Chinese social media influencer Du Mei Zhu wrote several Weibo posts, claiming that she was sexually assaulted by Wu. She said that Wu would force teenage girls to have sex with him by providing them great opportunities in the music or acting industries.
“Bear the responsibilities if you have done it, I will provide all documents and actively cooperate with the police, the other victims who faced similar experiences will also bring evidence and act in concert with the police,” Du Mei Zhu said in one of her posts. She also provided videos and photos of screenshots as proofs.
In response to the allegations, Wu Yi Fan wrote a Weibo post on 19 July, saying: “I declare, I have never done those ‘seducing’, ‘raping’ or ‘underage’ things! If I have, do not worry, I will go to prison myself! I take responsibility for all my words above!”.
The incident is now the #1 trending topic on Weibo, with 11.1 million reads at the time of writing.
