China urges 'certain people' to stop 'malicious hyping' and 'politicization' of tennis star Peng Shuai
She re-appeared over the weekend in Beijing and held a video call with International Olympic Committee (IOC) president Thomas Bach on Sunday but the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) has said that this did not address or alleviate concerns about her wellbeing. Amnesty International's China researcher Alkan Akad also said the video call did little to ease fears over Peng's wellbeing and that the IOC was entering "dangerous waters".
