BEIJING – Hong Kong police raided a museum commemorating the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown.
Officers were seen carrying exhibits out of the June 4 Museum.
Four members of the group that ran the museum, the Hong Kong Alliance, were detained on Wednesday – including prominent pro-democracy activist and barrister Chow Hang Tung.
The arrests were made under the national security law, which has a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
Police accused Chow of inciting subversion, her lawyers said.
The group, known for organizing the city’s famed annual vigil for Tiananmen Square victims, denied accusations of being a foreign agent.(BBC)
