Following reports by western news agencies of unrest
among Muslim inhabitants in Qinghai, Beijing Review (1 Nov)
published a report saying that Public Security departments in
the provincial capital, Xining had taken "lawful measures to
stop illegal demonstrations" and outlawed the organisations reponsible. The organisations were said to have occupied
mosques by force and organised demonstrations under the pretext of opposing the publication of a Taiwan published book which had been reissued by the Sichuan Fine Arts publishing house.
According to western reports, the book contained a picture of a
pig next to a praying Muslim.
