HONG KONG — Hundreds of thousands of pro-democracy protesters returned to the streets of Hong Kong on Sunday, defying a ban on assembly before being violently dispersed by police tear gas and a water cannon.

A police water cannon filled with stinging blue dye blasted protesters along a major thoroughfare in Kowloon. It also hit a small group standing guard outside a mosque — an important spiritual nexus for the city’s largely South Asian Muslim community — leaving bystanders choking and vomiting.

Protesters vandalized businesses viewed as supporting Beijing, threw molotov cocktails at police stations, set barricades on fire and smashed up subway stations in chaotic scenes that have become familiar to the city after five months of sustained protest.

The huge turnout, estimated by organizers at around 350,000 and including families, children and the elderly, showed that the movement maintains widespread support in the face of increasingly violent tactics of protesters and the escalating use of force by police.


Marchers made a sea of colored umbrellas through the narrow streets of the city’s Kowloon area, which are lined with malls and international hotels. Some waved Catalonian flags in solidarity with the independence protests in that region of Spain.

In contrast to previous demonstrations, tensions escalated quickly, with clashes erupting long before sunset. By late afternoon, protesters were throwing molotov cocktails and bricks at police stations.

In a show of their increasing sophistication, protesters also produced power tools to drill metal railings into road surfaces for sturdier barricades to hold back police.

Hong Kong authorities said protester violence has been escalating. In a statement released just after midnight, the government said police had intercepted a vehicle “with a large number of petrol bombs,” and “suspected explosive items” were found around the city. There were no reports that any explosives were detonated.

“Members of the public should not fall foul of the law by participating in unauthorised processions and assemblies in order not to give rioters the chance to commit crimes,” the government said.

The months of protests began in opposition to a bill that would have allowed extraditions to mainland China. The Hong Kong government said the legislation, since withdrawn, was in response to a brutal murder of a young Hong Kong woman by her boyfriend in Taiwan. He has since voluntarily surrendered to Taiwanese authorities, despite the lack of the extradition treaty.

Protests have swelled into a comprehensive rejection of Hong Kong’s leaders, who many say act only in Beijing’s interest, and revived a demand for direct elections in the semi autonomous territory.

“We don’t care whether they will approve the march or not. Our fight for justice in the face of tyranny goes on anyway,” said Victor, 24, who returned to his home city from New Zealand to participate in the protest. “The movement is spreading everywhere, all around the world.”

Sunday’s protest came days after the leader of the Civil Human Rights Front, Jimmy Sham, was attacked by a group of men wielding hammers in the Mong Kok neighborhood.

The beating left Sham, who is contesting a seat in next month’s local elections, splayed on the street and covered in blood. It was the second time in recent months that he had been targeted. He was released from the hospital on Sunday but will continue to need medical treatment and physical therapy.

“The message was clear that someone or some forces behind the scenes are trying to threaten protest organizers and democracy activists,” said Eric Lai, vice convener of the Civil Human Rights Front. “We cannot identify who was behind the attacks, but the objective is to create a chilling effect on those who are making demands for justice.”

The CHRF, founded in September 2002 in opposition to proposed national security legislation, is an umbrella organization made up of several civil society groups. While the protest movement has remained leaderless and largely decentralized, the group has played a major role in organizing the largest marches.

Online rumors that Sham’s attackers appeared to be South Asian prompted fears that ethnic minorities could be targeted for reprisal. In response, protesters called for greater outreach to non-Chinese Hong Kongers and to remain vigilant against attempts to incite violence against them.

Volunteers, minorities, protesters and others stood at the gate to the Kowloon Mosque during the protest, holding signs pleading for people not to attack any ethnic minority people or buildings. While some handed out supplies, others led chants, and passing marchers loudly cheered them on.

But only a few hours later, a police truck unleashed a cascade of blue water at the mosque, hitting the people who had been guarding it. The blue dye is used to identify demonstrators.

Passersby were left choking and vomiting, and the steps of the mosque were stained blue. Phillip Khan, a prominent businessman in the Muslim community standing outside the mosque, called the act an “insult to Islam.”

“It is ridiculous. The police just went mad,” said Jeremy Tam, a pro-democracy lawmaker, his pants and shoes soaked blue and his eyes bloodshot. “We came here to protect the mosque against protesters, but it was the police that did this.

“Why make such a scene when it was just peaceful?”


Nawaz, a 36-year-old Pakistani man who has lived in Hong Kong for 25 years, emerged to see the blue-stained road after the cannon had sped past.

“I have such a bad feeling seeing this,” he said. “This is our religion. How can they do this? Only the police are giving us pressure, not the protesters.” Like others, he declined to give his family name for fear of backlash from authorities.

Police said in a statement later that the mosque was “accidentally affected” and they had “immediately contacted” the chief imam and Muslim community leaders to “clarify the situation and to show” concern.

Tense scenes unfolded outside the Tsim Sha Tsui police station by early afternoon, as protesters marching past shouted chants calling the police gangsters and demanding the force be dissolved. Police use of force has emerged as a key complaint for many in Hong Kong, who say officers are acting with impunity to suppress the movement.


A protester urinated on the station’s gates, and police fired tear gas to disperse the crowd. Tear gas streamed down the Ladies Market, a popular tourist attraction, sending unprotected stall-holders and shoppers scurrying for cover. Some were assisted by protesters and volunteer medics.

Many demonstrators, facing the possibility of being penned in by police, found sanctuary in little businesses that support the protests or huddled in overflowing restaurants, cafes and bars where they could change their clothes and wait for reports on Telegram indicating how they could get safely away while avoiding the police.

Sunday’s protest, planned initially to show opposition to a recently enacted law banning the use of face masks at public gatherings, continued for hours from a starting point in the Tsim Sha Tsui neighborhood. April, 27, and her boyfriend, William, 29, stood near a park where protesters first gathered. The couple said they had held off getting married or having kids out of concern over the direction of Hong Kong and the possibility of raising children in a city where Beijing’s grip is tightening.


“The situation for future generations is turning worse very quickly. We are really worried,” April said. “If we don’t fight today, there won’t be a future generation.”


As night fell around the Kowloon Mosque, a group of volunteers began clearing the pools of caustic blue dye, using cloths to remove it from the mosque’s metal gates and brooms to sweep it into drains. Some gagged as they worked, but the crowd of volunteers grew by the hour.

Sad what is going on in Hong Kong. This place is just outside Tsim Sha Tsui station where I would meet lot of friends for a good weekend trip etc....back when I was a kid growing up there.

Right next to the mosque, I distinctly remember picnicing/chatting with friends and family etc...on steps of kowloon park right next to it....and there would be a pleasant prayer sound come from the mosque. Very nice memories.....so sad what is happening in exact same spot now.
 
Not intentional therefore no need for outrage.

Let’s not fight someone else’s political battles.

We have no stake in this.

What's the problem here?

Seems to me some unscrupulous "protesters" are trying very hard to suck Muslims into their mega-church funded mess. Muslims certainly shouldn't get drawn into this "protest", which is clearly getting more desperate as the HK police, Beijing and expat communities continually fail to be baited into a trap by the separatists.

Let the mega-churches in the USA know that HK protesters are using their collection plate dollars to "guard mosques" and watch the funds dry up overnight! Hilarious duplicity of these protesters. I'd like to know what they really think of Muslims when they're not busy "guarding" their mosques.

I'd like the imams to quietly ask these citizen guards to move away from the mosques and let Muslims go about their business. I guarantee you not a single police officer will do anything untoward (accidentally or otherwise) to the mosques or the Muslims then.

The take home message here is that the protesters are desperate for anyone to boost their numbers.

So now blue dye spill, splash, spray what ever u wanna call it is now an attack on entire Islam?
If you have a faith in Islam such pity things should not bother you. in such massive protests alot of business like banks restaurants museums etc get vandalized or attacked. An attack on Islamic sites would be what kingdom of Saud has done by whipping out 90% of Islamic sites.
btw the police apologized

@Itachi

You must be very upset that all the response is not what you agenda planned. So sad :lol:

BTW, you all shall have seen the truth color of this Itachi. Any comment by him about Muslim for China and hongkong is always come with a twist. Be warn!
 
On the other hand, as you can see in the videos posted in the first post of this thread, the blue dye cannon was used against reporters and people just standing near/infront of the Mosque.

They weren't seen in riot gear or petrol bombs but with cameras and phones in their hands because of which we know about this whole incident.
You said that because you do not experience the riots in HK. Let's me tell you: first the police was clearing the area and already asked anyone to leave, people should leave simple as that. The same applies in other western countries as well; Second, this doesn't matter if those people wear riot gear or not, since the rioters can easily take off the gear or mask and hide the petrol bombs in their bag or other places where the police can not see. As I said in my first post, they can pretend as bystanders and attack the police in the back. As a matter of fact, the police had already arrested several fake reporters and people who assaulted police officers that didn't wear riot gear. Also the purpose of clearing is to drive people out of the streets in order to prevent further crimes and for anyone safety (including the Police themselves).

Please try not to skew the whole incident and blame the protestors. This incident was caused by the heavy handedness of the police.
There is no heavy handedness of the police, do not antagonize our police force. If there are no throwing petrol bombs, setting fire on the street, destroying shops and infrastructure, then the HK police don't need to clear the streets by using water cannon. You live in US and should know better than me that those rioters should already eat real bullets if the US police station have been attacked by petrol bombs. Instead our police only use water cannon to drive people out and this is 100% justified.

Our police apologized was because the shooting blue dye to Mosque is disrespectful to Muslim community in HK and their religion. Since the HK Muslim community is peaceful and reasonable, they deserve all the respect they get. In fact, their leaders do understand the police actions and that is why they didn't say anything like "heavy handedness of the police". However, the police should pay extra attention next time when they use water canon and blue dye if it is close to a Mosque, instead they should send riot police to do the clearing physically. But that doesn't mean the using of water cannon and blue dye is not justified.

Like I said in the OP, there were no protestors there at the beginning of the incident, just some locals, some of the masjid dudes and reporters/journalists.

You can clearly see that in the multiple videos in the OP.

If Americans or/& Indians had done this then it would have been an outrage but I guess most here on PDF harbor a soft corner for the Chinese.

This isn't about anything other than spreading awareness.

Right right...I'm the boogeyman. :lol:

If I had an agenda, I would have been more serious. This is just a single thread on this particular incident. No other threads exist about this incident on PDF.

I'm not the one spamming threads about how great China is, how the Uyghurs are all really happy, etc etc...

Thank You, I appreciate you comments. :enjoy:

I never wish a divide between Muslims & Chinese (as some here accuse me of), no matter our religion.

I'm just here to bring awareness. If a Pakistani wrongs a Chinese or acts disrespectful or if the Pakistani govt. does, I'll spread awareness for that too.

Despite being told on numerous posts that Hong Kong leader as well apologized for the accident as such and in-fact people went on to clean the Mosque but, I see why unnecessary curiosity is being peddled with continuous jibes to fuel something else in regard to accident which does not fit the bill at all. You can have you opinion but never claim to shove down your understanding upon Pakistanis and call it spreading so-called awareness. In the end, all you have to ask is the issue as who cleaned it.

Pakistan do not try to misuse such an issue of Muslims while to be resolved in China. We do talk but behind close doors for proper resolution. Use your flag as usual to support protesters but not on the cost of Muslim issue or Pakistanis to China.
