UN CALLS FOR CHANGE IN CHINA'S CONSTITUTION

The Special Rapporteur's 35-page report refers to a "perceptible development in the field of human rights and religious tolerance" in China, noting "some progress" as well as "aspects that deserve to be corrected and improved". The progress referred to by the UN report is in the field of legislation, but the UN recommends that China should still introduce a law on religious tolerance, and that it should amend its constitution. M. Amor called on China to release 79 people imprisoned or placed under restrictions for their religious beliefs, including 68 Christian priests and a representative group of 11 Tibetan monks and nuns convicted of pro-independence activities. The inclusion of the Tibetans in the list indicated that the UN regards monks and nuns held for expressing political opinions as religious prisoners, a view rejected by China.
