Reuters: China detains Internet user for Japan protest plot

From Reuters:

Chinese police have detained an Internet surfer for trying to organise an anti-Japanese protest in the eastern city of Nanjing on the upcoming Labour Day holiday, state media said on Monday.

It was the strongest signal to date China is seeking to head off a repeat of violent protests across the country this month against what many Chinese see as Japan’s whitewashing of its wartime past.
