China has deported all 10 of the pro- Tibet activists it arrested for protests during the Beijing Olympics, releasing them before the end of their 10-day detention following pressure from the US embassy in Beijing, a US-based Tibet rights group said Monday.

'All 10 have been deported. They were deported at 9:20 am Sunday New York time (Sunday evening in Beijing) right before the end of the closing ceremony,'
All of the detained are from the group. Eight are Americans and landed around noon Monday in Los Angeles, Reddick said. The other two - a Tibetan-German and a Briton - have arrived in Germany, according to a pro-Tibet group in Germany,
They said they were kept in cells and allowed to leave only for interrogations, which dragged on for up to 16 hours at a time.

With lights shining on them, prisoners were locked into high-backed metal chairs with bars across their laps.

The protesters said they were made to wear dirty uniforms of red T-shirts and black shorts. Drinking water was turned on for only 15 minutes a day.

Arriving at Heathrow airport, Ms McKeown, 41, said she was "elated" to be back in Britain after being held for three days without charge.

Speaking in New York, the American protesters said their Chinese interrogators accused them of having ties to the US government.

"They asked about our actions, our roles, about our lives -- everything from where I went to high school to everything I ate in China," said Jeremy Wells, a New Yorker.

Jeff Rae, a 28-year-old photographer from New York, described their imprisonment as "the scariest -- it was beyond anything I could imagine in a movie".
