(Reuters) – Police in China’s capital and in southern Guangdong have detained or taken away more than 50 people after two separate protests, police and state news agency Xinhua said.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
Guangdong police arrested 22 people after demonstrators forced their way into a high-speed rail station in a protest about land and housing issues, Xinhua reported late on Friday.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
In a separate incident in Beijing on Saturday, police took more than 30 people to hospital after they consumed pesticide during a “lie-in” protest on a shopping street near the center of the capital, city police said in a statement.<\/div>
<\/div>
 <\/div>
The statement said the protesters were taxi drivers from the far northern province of Heilongjiang.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
Similar incidents have happened before in China, with protesters drinking pesticide or fertilizer in public areas in the hope of drawing attention to a grievance.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
About 90,000 “mass incidents” – a euphemism for protests – occur each year in China, triggered by corruption, pollution, illegal land grabs and other grievances.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
In the village of Mazha in Guangdong, residents said protesters had stormed the train station on Thursday “as a stunt to draw the attention of senior officials to issues with land, money, irrigation and housing in Mazha”, according to Xinhua.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
“Large areas of land were sold cheaply, and many villagers were never properly compensated,” one villager told Xinhua.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
The protesters were quickly cleared away by police, who detained 22 for blocking the train and damaging public and private property, the news agency said.<\/div>
 <\/div>
<\/div>
The government has been trying to settle the dispute since September, but villagers have continued to stage protests, the report said.<\/div>
