Timeline

2020

After returning to the UK, Humphrey maintained his innocence and argued that his confession was forced and the broadcast footage by CCTV was doctored. In 2020, UK watchdog, Ofcom, ruled that broadcasting the footage violated British broadcasting regulations and Humphrey's privacy and that the station would be sanctioned.

2019

On 22 December 2019, Humphrey wrote an article for The Sunday Times, which soon made global headlines. In the article, it was reported that a girl from Tooting, South London, England found help information in a charity card bought from Tesco. The help information claimed to be written by foreign prisoners at Qingpu Prison, Shanghai, and asked for contact with Humphrey. Humphrey said that the father of the girl contacted Humphrey so he wrote the article, and he also claimed to know who wrote the information. Yunguang, the printing company which made the cards, denied the allegations. Guang Shuang, China's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, denied forced labor at Qingpu.

2015

In June 2015, Humphrey was released ahead of schedule due to health issues. Then he was sent to a Shanghai hospital to make a diagnosis about cancer. After leaving the hospital, he was deported from China. His wife was released the same month. The UK Consulate in Shanghai prepared them with new passports for emergency so that they could return to the UK. Humphrey was banned from entering China for 10 years. After returning to the UK, the couple still faced health and financial difficulties. Humphrey was diagnosed with prostate cancer, which Humphrey claimed to be worsened by poor conditions and delayed treatment in the prison. He also claims he was denied medical care in order to pressure him to confess. In March 2017, they sued GlaxoSmithKline as they believed that GlaxoSmithKline misled them to unpredictable legal risk and sought for compensations, while GlaxoSmithKline believed such accusation to be unreasonable.

2014

The Humphrey couple was arrested in August 2013, yet the formal prosecution was not made until July 2014 when the couple was accused of "illegal acquisition of personal data of Chinese citizens." On 8 August 2014, Humphrey and his wife were tried in No. 1 Intermediate People's Court of Shanghai Municipality. For the case was the first case of "illegal acquisition of personal data" in China that involved foreign citizens, the trial was made public on Weibo, which also made the case the first broadcast trial of crimes involving foreigners.

2013

In March 2013, secretly filmed sex videos of Mark Rilley, GlaxoSmithKline's then head in China, were emailed to 13 senior executives of the company, including the CEO Andrew Witty. According to The Sunday Times, the videos were accompanied by detailed accusations of the company's "pervasive bribery" in China made by an anonymous writer called "gskwhistleblower".

Since April 2013, ChinaWhys was paid by British drug maker GlaxoSmithKline to investigate into the source of the sex tapes. Humphrey submitted his report on 6 June 2013 to GlaxoSmithKline reporting on his investigations. The Sunday Times said that Humphrey was unaware of the company's bribery allegations until June. In the same month, the Chinese police made public their investigations into GlaxoSmithKline's bribery in China.

In July, the case went into legal processes. On 18 August 2013, Humphrey and his wife were arrested by Shanghai police. In May 2014, Mark Rilley was arrested due to allegations he was directly involved in and encouraged bribery.

In 2013 CGTN broadcast a confession "We obtained personal information by illegal means", in a context that implied Humphrey and Yu had done this to some 60 victims per year for an indeterminate number of years. Ofcom later upheld a complaint that CGTN's UK broadcast of this violated their fairness and privacy regulations.

2004

In 2004, he and his Chinese American wife Yu Yingzeng founded Shelian Consultation (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. in Shanghai, whose clients were mostly large multinational corporations in China. The company hired dozens of employees, among which Humphrey was the general manager of the company and his wife the legal representative.

1980

During the 1980s and 1990s, Humphrey worked for Reuters as a correspondent. Since the late 1990s, he began doing jobs in risk management. In 2003, he founded a risk management company called ChinaWhys (Chinese: 中慧), whose websites claimed to provide creative solutions to tricky business problems in China.

1964

According to Chinese media The Paper, Vivian Shi, a former Chinese female executive at GlaxoSmithKline China's government affairs department who was born in 1964, should have been involved in reporting the company's bribery to the senior executives of the company and the Chinese government, as said by some employees of other foreign pharmaceutical companies in China interviewed by The Paper. According to the Financial Times, Humphrey explained that Shi had used her connections to the communist party elite to have him jailed. He was told she managed to acquire a copy of Humphrey's report. Humphrey believed she was the whistleblower.

1956

Peter William Humphrey (born March 1956), commonly known as Han Feilong (Chinese: 韩飞龙) in China, is a British former journalist and private detective, known for his arrest by the Shanghai Police due to allegations that he illegally acquired personal data of Vivian Shi, a Chinese citizen with connections to the Shanghai communist elite. After his release from China in 2018, following two years' detention, he claimed Shanghai was the most corrupt city in China and described the torment he had suffered at Qingpu Prison to global media. The case is widely considered to be one of selective prosecution. In December 2019, he wrote an article for The Sunday Times about a London family who bought charity cards from Tesco and found appeals for help written from Qingpu Prison on the cards, which drew global attention to the prison where Humphrey was held.
