Women activist Wu Rongrong, 30, pose for a photograph with papers which read “Women graduates are talented, only hiring men is frustrating” (top) and “I invite the head of Human Resources and Social Security department to go to the job market with me”, in this undated handout picture taken in an unknown location in China, provided by a women's rights group on April 8, 2015. Chinese police are broadening their investigation into five detained women activists to focus on their campaigns against domestic violence and for more public toilets for women, their lawyers said on Wednesday. The women were taken into custody on the weekend of International Women's Day, March 8, and later detained on suspicion of “picking quarrels and provoking trouble”, their lawyers said, a charge that carries jail of up to five years. Beijing police did not respond to a request for comment. (Photo by Reuters/Stringer)
