BEIJING — Six people ordered out of China after attempting to attend the trials of pro-democracy demonstrators left the country today without incident.

Norman Quan, a Chinese passport-holder living in Los Angeles, was told that he had violated the laws of China. Five other activists from Britain, Canada and the Netherlands were accused of engaging in activities incompatible with their status as tourists.
