Protesters are gathering in various locations across Hong Kong on Sunday to mourn the death of a university student who fell from a car park floor in unexplained circumstances near a police dispersal operation.
Messages have been circulating online, calling for people to gather at shopping malls in places such as Central, Tuen Mun, Sha Tin, Tseung Kwan O, Tsuen Wan, Causeway Bay and Kowloon Tong at 2pm. A prayer meeting is also set to take place at Chater Garden in Central at 7pm, led by Reverend Chu Yiu-ming and Auxiliary Bishop Joseph Ha Chi-shing.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong police fired tear gas to break up pro-democracy protesters in the western district of Tsuen Wan on Sunday as violence broke out in the New Territories on the 24th straight weekend of unrest.
