China Labour Watch, a New York-based advocacy group, said on Wednesday that a man has been arrested and two are missing in China after conducting an investigation into a Chinese company making Ivanka Trump-branded shoes. According to Li Qiang, executive director of the group China Labour Watch, labour activist Hua Haifeng was arrested in Jiangxi province on suspicion of illegally using eavesdropping equipment. Li said the three men had been investigating labour conditions at factories that produce shoes for Ivanka Trump, the daughter of U.S. President Donald Trump, and other Western brands.
