Riot police have fired teargas and beaten residents in southern China after they took to the streets to protest against a local construction project.
Hundreds of residents in Wenlou, a township in Guangdong province about 60 miles from Hong Kong, protested on Friday against plans for a large crematorium in an area officials had previously said would become an “ecological park”.
