Beijing, Jul 15 (IBNS) An Indian is reported among a group of foreign tourists who have been arrested in northern China for suspected links to "a terror group", media reports said on Wednesday.

The group of foreign tourists comprise 20 people.

According to the report, the Indian embassy has, however, said it is has "no information" about the matter.

China has agreed to release 11 of the tourists, but the rest will continue to be held without charge at a detention center in Inner Mongolia, the reports said quoting a South African charity organisation.

Chinese authorities have been quoted as saying that some of those arrested had been watching propaganda videos from a banned group in their hotel room.

The group was on a 47-day tour of the country when they were detained at an airport in the Inner Mongolian city of Erdos.
