Epilogue

Abstract

It was never clear what 24-year-old Lee Zing Yang and her two-year older colleague Meng Li Si were doing in Balochistan when they were kidnapped and murdered in 2017 by Pakistanis flying the flag of the Islamic State. They were first identified as Chinese-language teachers and later described as Christian missionaries. People close to the Chinese security services suggested that their activities may have been more nefarious.
