China has removed six officials from Britain, including one of its most senior UK diplomat – two months after violence outside its Manchester consulate.
The UK had requested the officials waive their right to diplomatic immunity to allow detectives to question them about October's incident.
Foreign Secretary James Cleverly expressed his disappointment that none of the six would now face justice.
The group included consul-general Zheng Xiyuan, who denied beating a protester.
