    Christians beaten by Chinese police as church is razed
    By Peter Simpson in Beijing

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2006/08/01/wchina01.xml

    Hundreds of Chinese police clashed with thousands of "underground" Christians over the demolition of a church which was deemed to be an illegal structure.

    Up to 500 police forced back as many as 3,000 Christ-ians who had gathered at the weekend to mount a peaceful demonstration against the state's demolition of the church in the eastern province of Zhejiang.

    More than 20 Christians were injured in the clashes on Saturday, while five organisers of the protest were arrested, according to the Hong Kong-based Information Centre for Human Rights and Democracy.

    And we are going to the Olypics here???
