Beijing police have released two Christians after holding them in custody for about two months, sources say.
Bob Fu Xiqiu and his wife, Heidi Cai Bochun , were released on July 8 after being held by police for their involvement in a Christian training centre near Beijing.
One source said the couple were apparently treated well while in custody.
After their release, police informed Mr Fu's workplace, the Communist Party School, that he could continue his teaching job and the two could keep their living quarters there.
In addition, they have not been pressed into paying fines.
While they were being held at a detention centre in Fengtai district, Beijing police had searched at least two churches in the city but found no concrete evidence against them. One source who visited the couple after their release said they appeared to be in good health and had not suffered any beatings.
Another source said they might return to their native Shandong.
