Homosexuals clash with police in park

GUANGZHOU: More than 100 gay men in this southern city protested this week against recent actions by the police to push them out of a park frequented by homosexuals.

The protest was held Tuesday night in People's Park, not far from the Guangzhou municipal government building, said Ah Qiang, a volunteer of a Guangzhou-based gay organization.

"The park is open for everyone," Ah said. "Why are we not allowed to stay here?"
