The Chinese Human Rights Defenders group has claimed today that China is cracking down on dissent, in the run-up to the 2008 Olympics, by persecuting and harassing human rights activists.
The Chinese Human Rights Defenders group said that the situation deteriorated last year, with activists increasingly arrested and intimidated.
Quote:
"The government appears determined to stamp out any sign of discontent and dissent so as to present a happy facade of social stability and social harmony to the world as the 2008 Summer Olympics draws closer."
