Kathmandu, Aug 8 (IANS) More than 2,000 protesting Tibetans were arrested but fresh waves of young men and women took their place in front of the Chinese embassy here Friday as the refugees began an unprecedented protest against the 17th Olympic Games being held in Beijing. "The Olympics have no meaning, it’s an unfair Olympics," the protesters shouted.
Most of the demonstrators wore bright yellow jackets that said "Free Tibet" and wore bands around their heads with similar messages. "There is no human rights in China, no freedom of expression, no liberty. We want all political prisoners to be freed," said one of the protesters.

Friday, August 8, 2008
PARIS - Police banned rights groups from demonstrating outside the Chinese embassy in Paris on Friday, as President Nicolas Sarkozy heads to Beijing for the Olympic Games' opening ceremony.
A coalition including media watchdog Reporters Without Borders (RSF) had called for a rally at the embassy at 1:00 p.m. (1100 GMT) Friday, to urge China to release all jailed dissidents, journalists and human rights activists.
But in a last-minute ruling, the Paris police department banned the gathering, saying it wanted to prevent a repeat of "violent disturbances" that broke out when the Olympic flame passed through Paris in April (...)
