New Delhi, April 28
Even as India today defended its decision to cancel the visa issued to Uyghur activist Dolkun Isa, saying he had been given a tourist visa that did not permit him to attend a conference in Dharamsala, it emerged that the visas to two other Chinese dissidents were also not granted. The duo was supposed to attend the Dharamsala conference.
Lu Jinghua, who was active in the 1989 Tiananmen square protests and figures on a Chinese list of “major criminals”, learnt of the development as she was about to board a New Delhi-bound flight from New York on April 25.
Sources said since Lu Jinghua and Roy Wong both had inconsistency in their documents, visas were not issued to them. — TNS
