Hong Kong denies detaining Uyghur student Abuduwaili Abudureheman.

Hong Kong denies detaining Uyghur scholar Abuduwaili Abudureheman, who went missing after arriving in the city earlier this month. Abudureheman had texted a friend saying he was being interrogated by police at the airport. Amnesty International has demanded Hong Kong reveal his whereabouts, but the government said such a call was slander and "groundless and unfounded". The Chinese government has been accused of a brutal crackdown against the Muslim minority Uyghurs, which it denies.
