China tries fourth dissident

CHINA WILL try a trade union activist, Zhang Shanguang, tomorrow for threatening national security. He will face a court in Huaihua city, central Hunan Province, for "illegally providing information to overseas organisations", said the New York-based Human Rights in China. He will be the fourth opposition figure to face trial in two weeks.
