Beijing cracks down on sales of bin Laden badges
Authorities in China’s capital have raided street stalls and wholesale markets and seized badges bearing the image of suspected terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden, an official newspaper said today.
Four types of pin-on badges were being sold, all bearing the now-familiar image of the bearded Islamic militant the US accuses of being behind the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington, the Beijing Youth Daily reported.
