"I was just refused entry to Hong Kong," Missal said online over the weekend. "After 13 sleepless hours under immigration examination in the middle of the night, I was told that I could not enter the city and was eventually allowed to take a plane to Vietnam, where I planned to go only in a couple of days."
"I was questioned several times and held in a room without any daylight but neon tubes at the ceiling. My luggage was searched. The police did not provide any reason for the entry refusal. In the end, I was accompanied by plainclothes officers to the plane to Vietnam," he said.
Senior official in the Tibet Initiative Deutschland group Missal, a 30-year-old award-winning journalist, is the deputy chairman and spokesman of the Tibet Initiative Deutschland group, which describes itself as an organization that since its 1989 foundation has lobbied for "the right to self-determination of Tibetan people and the protection of human rights in Tibet."
