The Chinese authorities have arbitrarily detained a doctor, Dr Jiang Yanyong, who treated injured students during the June 1989 crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrations in Tiananmen Square, and his wife Hua Zhongwei. Also detained in the run-up to the 15th anniversary of the event was HIV and environmental activist Hu Jia. All three are at risk of torture or ill-treatment in custody.
