A prominent Chinese activist has been formally arrested more than a month after being taken into custody.
Hu Jia, who publicises human rights abuses across China, has been accused of inciting subversion of state power.
Campaigners say his arrest shows that China is not keeping its promise to improve human rights ahead of this year's Beijing Olympic Games.
But the government says China is a country ruled by laws, and Hu Jia will be dealt with according to the law.
