China accuses couple of “collecting intelligence”

Can it be as simple has having a view of the so-called Friendship Bridge from China into North Korea? Kevin Garratt and his wife Julia Dawn Garratt have a popular coffee shop in the border City of Dandong that overlooks this sole link to the Kim Jung-un worker’s paradise. So, is Peter’s Coffee House the reason why the Garratt’s are being accused of “collecting intelligence” about China?  Their son, Simeone Garrett, 27, has told the BBC that his parents have not been contactable since Monday night. The couple previously taught in southern China for several years and then moved to Dandong. The Xinhua report did not say whether they had been detained.
