October 27, 2022, Berlin, Germany: Chinese Embassy in Berlin on October 27, 2022. Several European media and NGOs reported that the People's Republic of China operates its police facilities abroad under ''service centers.'' The Chinese government is accused of running a worldwide network of dozens of illegal police stations abroad. According to a report by the human rights organization Safeguard Defenders, a so-called overseas service office is also said to exist in Germany. Meanwhile, investigations have been launched in Spain and the Netherlands. According to the report, the police stations disguised as citizens' offices are used, among other things, to silence dissidents living abroad.
