(ANSA) - ROME, DECEMBER 23 - A "farce". So the Chinese foreign ministry dismissed the request for help that a group held in Qingpu prison gave to Christmas postcards sold in the British supermarket chain Tesco.
"The Shanghai prison does not host foreign detainees subjected to forced labor," said spokesman GengShuang. The company that supplies the cards to Tesco, the Zhejiang Yunguang Printing, also denied having used foreign detainees for forced labor. "Never done such a thing," said a BBC spokesman.
