A day after tear gas and violence returned to Hong Kong’s streets following a week’s respite, two more protests are being held on Sunday afternoon. And all eyes are on whether the 12th straight weekend of anti-government protests again turns ugly.
In Central, police family members are holding a rally at Edinburgh Place to call on officers to exercise restraint in dealing with protesters. They also want an independent inquiry to investigate police violence.
This rally is unexpected as police associations have made it clear they oppose such an inquiry.
After the rally, they plan to march to the office of Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor to submit a petition letter before marching to police headquarters to submit another letter to the force.
In the New Territories, anti-government protesters are expected to march from the Kwai Chung Sports Ground to Tsuen Wan Park around 3pm.
MTR Corporation has announced that Kwai Fong, Tsuen Wan and Tsuen Wan West stations will close from 1.30pm until further notice because of the protests. That also means trains will not stop at the three stations.
