I wonder why the embassy did not remotely wipe his phone, since this was his work phone. With that said, I don't understand how he could not have expected that

With that said, I don't understand how he could not have expected that when visiting China.

Generally it's not a good idea for countries to torture people working for foreign consulates given that it's sure to spark huge diplomatic crises. The level of physical abuse forced on him is despicable, hopefully the EU will have the guts to impose strict economic sanctions on China to deter the Chinese government from taking insane actions like this again.
