young poets has not returned after being forcibly detained ahead of Human Rights Day.

A prominent young poet from the southwestern Chinese province of Guizhou has yet to return after being taken from his home last week by authorities, a fellow poet in Germany says.

Germany-based poet Xu Pei, who appeared in a cage at the 2009 Frankfurt Book Fair to protest the Chinese government's detention of writers, said that Wang Zang was among those targeted by police in the clampdown on members of the Guizhou Human Rights Forum last week.
