THE NEWS in brief
Norwegian court slaps man for spanking child
OSLO, Norway — A father who smacked his 4-year-old daughter on the bottom ended up feeling a sting in his own back pocket when police ordered him to pay a $470 fine.
Norway's strict child-protection laws bar corporal punishment, even in the privacy of a family's home. Violations are punishable by fines. Ove Brudevoll, police spokesman in the town of Kristiansund, said the 30-year-old father, whose name was not released, had admitted spanking his daughter in May because she disobeyed him at home.
Compiled from The Associated Press.
"It caused a small bruise, which is how it came to the attention of the police," Brudevoll said in a telephone interview yesterday. He would not say who noticed the bruise.
The bruise, Brudevoll said, did not require medical attention.
"It is a matter of setting limits," Brudevoll said. "A light pat on the bottom, or a firm tug on the arm are probably legal, but this went too far."
China releases activist to U.S.
The father now can pay the fine or take the case to court.
JACKSON, Wyo. — The Clinton administration welcomed the release of Chinese-American activist Harry Wu yesterday, saying that the action removes an obstacle to improving relations between the United States and China.
The Associated Press
In a statement released at President Clinton's vacation retreat in Wyoming, press secretary Mike McCurry said the Chinese government had put Wu aboard an Air China flight to San Francisco.
"The president welcomes the Chinese government's decision and is pleased that Mr. Wu will be reunited with his family and friends later today," the press secretary's statement said.
Deputy press secretary Ginny Terzano said Wu's situation was one consideration by first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton in deciding
whether to attend a human rights conference in China.
"The decision is still under consideration." Terzano said.
Earlier yesterday, Clinton was alerted to news reports that Wu had been expelled from China.
The United States had publicly asked for Wu's release after he was sentenced to 15 years in prison for siving.
"We had a diplomatic representative present at the sentencing," Terzano said. The Chinese tribunal that tried Wu sentenced him and then issued a sentence of expulsion.
"We have said all along that Mr. Wu should be released on humanitarian grounds, and the United States is seeking further clarification on the expulsion sentence. We are recommending that it be immediate." Terzano said.
Wu's sentencing came the day
before Peter Tarnoff, undersecretary of state, was due in Beijing to try to repair strained relations. Relations are at their lowest point since the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown on pro-democracy advocates.
Besides the Wu case, the United States has been distressed by Chinese offshore missile tests near Taiwan.
It was not immediately clear whether Wu's conviction would affect plans for a U.S. delegation scheduled to attend a U.N. women's conference in Beijing beginning Sept. 4. Upwards of 50,000 people from around the world are expected to attend the conference and a related Non-Governmental Organizations Forum.
Hillary Clinton, U.S. honorary chairwoman for the conference, has yet to announce a decision on whether she will attend.
