Crowd fights Chinese police at mosque demolition

A crowd of Muslims fought with police who demolished a mosque in China's northwest, ‎a police employee and a human rights group said Monday.‎

The violence erupted Friday in Hexi, a town in the Ningxia region, after the mosque was ‎declared an "illegal religious place" and about ‎‏1,000‏‎ officers arrived to demolish it, the ‎Hong Kong-based Information Center for Human Rights and Democracy said.‎

It said ‎‏50‏‎ people were injured and more than ‎‏100‏‎ detained after several hundred members ‎of China's Muslim Hui minority tried to stop the demolition. It cited a villager as saying ‎two people died, but said it could not confirm that.‎

An employee who answered the phone at the town police station confirmed that officers ‎had fought with protesters and said about ‎‏80‏‎ people were detained but denied there were ‎any deaths.‎

Police demolished the mosque after the clash, said the employee, who refused to give her ‎name. She said she did not know how many people were involved or why police ‎demolished the mosque.‎

The Communist government closely monitors religious activity and worries that mosques ‎and other houses of worship might become centers for anti-government agitation.‎

The Hui are one of several Muslim minority groups in China. They include descendants of ‎Muslim immigrants from Central Asia, members of China's majority Han ethnicity who ‎converted to Islam and several other groups.‎
