Prosecutors approve arrest of journalist

Prosecutors approved a police application to arrest Liu Hu, a journalist suspected of fabricating rumors online, Beijing News reported on Thursday. But prosecutors did not announce what crime Liu is charged with, the report said. Zhou Ze, Liu's lawyer, said on his micro blog that Liu was arrested for defamation, according to the report. Before Liu's detention in August, Liu, working for a newspaper in Guangdong province, used his real-name Sina micro blog to make corruption allegations against Ma Qizheng, deputy director of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.
