Walked for 3 mins from the end of the line to the front where the altar was set up to pay tribute to Chow. Hundreds queuing up with white flowers and candles. A moment of silence at 20:09 when Chow was certified dead 4 months ago in the morning. #HongKongProtests
#JUSTIN: Mins after moment of silence, police suddenly advanced to make containment to stop and search the crowd. The crowd included the young and old, reporters, first aiders and even residents nearby was in it. Police later contained the other side too. #HongKongProtests
#NOW: 2.5 hours later and we’re still inside the containment waiting for search. We were told to be cooperating w the force but officers from time to time yelled at the crowd and took mugshots. One even said “I’ll arrest you if you keep on opening ur umbrella.” #HongKongProtests
still #NOW: - Much to witness even stuck inside police’s containment for 3.5 hrs. Police deployed strong spotlights on reporters to block their vision plus called on orders to their fellows – “you don’t need to cost sth to give warnings to them,” one yelped. #HongKongProtests
4 hrs of stop and search done...Gents first - then ladies. Ladies were intimidated for multiple times while warnings were given. A mid-aged woman in the queue who went down for a run told me that she hadn’t had dinner yet. It was midnight. BTW happy #IWD2020 frm #HongKongProtests
