Beijing: Four More Activists Sentenced to Ten Days ‘Administrative Detention’

According to the British and German embassies, the four Tibet activists arrested early on August 21 have been sentenced to 10 days “administrative detention” by Chinese police. Under Chinese law, Chinese police can subject people to the punishment of administrative detention without a trial or court hearing This follows on yesterday’s sentencing of six other Tibet supporters in Beijing to the same punishment. Little else is known at this time but Students for a Free Tibet will fight this however we can and we will post additional information as we learn more.
