Hong Kong organiser of Tiananmen vigil released on bail

Hong Kong activist Chow Hang Tung was released on bail on Saturday, a day after she was detained on suspicion of promoting an unauthorised assembly to commemorate the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown on pro-democracy activists in Beijing.

 

Police arrested Chow, vice-chairperson of the Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China, alleging she promoted an unauthorized assembly early on Friday morning.

"There’s no logic in that. It's a completely absurd charge, (a) complete abuse of power. I reject all the allegation,” she told reporters outside the police station.
