Retraction and apology to Donghua Liu for untrue statements

RNZ's article "Donghua Liu returns to China to face charges" from 13 November 2016 contained untrue statements. RNZ has issued a retraction and apology to Mr Liu.

@jegga hmm RNZ isn't exactly Stuff though.

I wonder what the real story is. Given the amount of controversies around Donghua Liu I'd guess the journo possibly had a story but can't prove it. Better fact checking required
