Chinese Police 'arrest 90' in unsettled region

Authorities have arrested more than 90 members of a Muslim ethnic minority in China’s far west and are torturing some of them following a series of bombings that left a dozen people dead, an activist alleged today.

In the second attack in the restive region of Xinjiang in a week, bombers hit 17 sites – including a police station, government building, bank and shops – in the mostly Muslim city of Kuqa early Sunday.
