The Hong Kong Journalists
Association says China has put
more than a dozen Hong Kong
journalists on a flight out of
Tibet, accusing them of
'illegal reporting.' It said
that about 15 staff from
television, radio and print
organisations had to leave
Lhasa. It described the
expulsions as 'unacceptable,'
and a violation of promises to
grant reporters greater
freedoms to report and travel
in the runup to the Beijing
Olympics in August.
