China said Wednesday a staffer at the British consulate in Hong Kong has been given 15 days of administrative detention in the city of Shenzhen for violating a law on public order.
At a daily briefing Wednesday, foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said the case was “not a diplomatic issue.”
It is unclear whether the man possessed a diplomatic passport. Geng said he was a Hong Kong resident and not a U.K. citizen.
