Violence erupts in China as police knock down mosque for being an 'illegal religious place'

Fighting broke out between crowds of Muslims and police when a mosque was demolished - for being an 'illegal religious place'.

Violence erupted in the town of Hexi, in China's northwest Ningxia region, after 1,000 officers arrived to help police the knocking down of the building.

More than 50 protesters were injured and 100 arrested after several hundred members of China's Muslim Hui minority tried to stop the demolition.
