News Plus慢速英语:王林因涉嫌非法拘禁罪被批捕 北京将不再建大型养老院

Now the news continues.
Police in East China's Jiangxi province have arrested self-proclaimed qigong master Wang Lin for his alleged role in an "illegal detention" case.
The victim, a company president Zou Yong, was kidnapped on July 9 and murdered. Police detained four suspects, including Wang.
Wang and another suspect were arrested on the charge of illegal detention, while the other two were charged with intentional homicide.
Wang, who claims to be a master of qigong, a traditional martial art combined with meditation, came to public attention in 2013 when images of his supposed "supernatural powers" were posted on the Internet. These "powers" include conjuring snakes from thin air and posing for pictures with celebrities.
Zou was introduced to Wang in 2002. In a TV interview in 2013, Zou said he had paid 5 million yuan, roughly 800,000 U.S. dollars in 2009 to become a disciple of Wang, who asked for almost 30 million yuan from him thereafter.
Wang has been previously investigated for possession of a gun, unlicensed medical practice, bribery and fraud. Local police and health authorities launched an investigation in 2013 but failed to make any headway due to lack of evidence.
Further investigations are under way.

Beijing will not build large nursing homes in the city or its suburbs due to the high cost of land and operations in the capital and surrounding areas.
A city official said old age-care services will not be completely shifted out of Beijing, like other industries, but smaller operations will be necessary.
Li Wanjun, head of Beijing Bureau of Civil Affairs, made the remarks recently during a talk show. Li said Beijing is too crowded to provide a comfortable living environment for elderly people.
Neighboring areas, including Hebei province and Tianjin, are expected to provide such services to seniors from Beijing. Even in Beijing suburbs, the cost of nursing care for the elderly is around one-third of the cost of services in the city.
The number of Beijing residents aged 60 or over could reach 5.6 million by 2040.
China Standard, a Beijing company, has started to build a nursing home community in Gaobeidian, Hebei province, about 80 kilometers away from Beijing.
The community is an hour's drive from Beijing, and can accommodate more than 2,600 people.
Beijing is to establish more than 200 small community care centers for the elderly by next year. The small centers can satisfy those who would not like to live outside Beijing.
