City’s addicts bound for detox, not labor
Beijing Tiantanghe Detoxification and Rehabilitation Center began serving the capital’s drug addicts Wednesday. According to new drug laws passed last June, all addicts will be sent to the detoxification center rather than being sentences to undergo re-education through labor. Addicts currently serving in re-education programs will be systematically shifted into the detox center system through July next year. (By Jin Zhu) CFP Photo
