Websites have been barred from posting details of juvenile bullying cases in an effort to prevent the youngsters from being harmed again, under a rule issued by China's Internet watchdog on Tuesday.

All media must make children's rights a priority when they report on cases involving school bullying and may not violate the privacy of minors by releasing names, addresses, photos or other materials, the Cyberspace Administration of China said.

Obscene or violent photos and videos involving child bullying and other crimes involving minors are also barred from websites, and repetition of such news reports should be reduced, the agency said.
