#Now back in CWB again a few hours after the early morning stroll around Victoria Park. Parts of the busy East Point Rd and Great George St are blocked by police with dozens of officers guarding the roads. Journos are asked to stay on pedestrian and reg with police.

A yellow-clad woman trying to handout white papers to passengers is now under search by the police. Reporters are kept around 5 meters from the group, behind two plastic tapes to keep a path on pavement.

A man in black T-shirt and wearing glasses was just now taken into a police van and driven away. Didn’t see what happened and police on site declined to tell.

#NOW a man in black with a white chrysanthemum standing in his backpack is under search by police.

Released after search the man said police warned him not to do anything to attract people to gather. He criticised police of infringing his individual freedom as he had not done anything illegal other than passing by with a white chrysanthemum.

After men in black, a man in white is now under search.

The man in white tee said police didn’t point out anything suspicious on him during a stop and search but an officer warned if he continued to talk so loudly he would be arrested. The man said the vigil was very meaningful to him. “HKers shall not be silenced.”
