	Statement about beating of Hong Kong reporters in Urumqi






	September 4 2009 The Foreign Correspondents' Club, Hong Kong, is deeply angered by reports that Hong Kong journalists from TVB and NOW Television covering events in Urumqi have been beaten by security forces, had their hands tied behind their backs and also had a gun pointed at one of them while performing their professional duties. They were then detained for three hours, although it is understood that all of them have proper credentials and permits. This is shocking and entirely unacceptable treatment, and the FCCHK expresses its displeasure in the strongest terms. Worryingly, it is not an isolated event. We extend our support to the journalists who have experienced this deplorable treatment, and we fully intend to raise this case directly with Mainland authorities at the earliest opportunity.
