Oppressive China Bans Public Gatherings in Urumqi Amid Mourning

Chinese police banned public gatherings and demonstrations in Urumqi as the families and friends of 184 people killed in ethnic clashes last week prepared to mourn the deaths today.

Police will disperse any large gatherings in Xinjiang’s capital, state-run Xinhua News Agency reported yesterday, citing a notice published by the Public Security Bureau of Urumqi City. No assemblies, marches or demonstrations will be permitted without police permission, Xinhua said.

Thousands of troops and police have been deployed since clashes between Han Chinese and mostly Muslim Uighurs broke out in Urumqi on July 5. In accordance with Chinese custom, mourning will start today for the 137 Han killed in the violence, including 111 men and 26 women.

Forty-six Uighurs also died, including one woman, and a man from the Hui minority was killed, the provincial government said yesterday, revising the death toll from a previous estimate of 156.
