Yingbei village head applies for dismissal

China Digital Times points at this video, made last month in Shandong province:

The clip shows the village head together with a group of thugs beating up villagers who refuse to leave their homes which will be demolished for a construction project. In one post, the caption reads: In Yingbei Village 樱北村， Kuiwen District 奎文区, Weifang City of Shandong Province, the village head Gao Zhigang led thugs to beat up villagers. Where are the higher-ups stopping such violent evictions? Can’t we small people have a place to live?

It is yet another illustration where local internet users appeal to the - trusted - higher authorities to help them out. Internet communication with very Chinese characteristics.
