HONG KONG -- Twelve Hong Kong pro-democracy activists received prison sentences of up to 10 months on Wednesday over their participation in a 2020 commemoration of the June 4 Tiananmen Square crackdown.
Thousands had gathered each year since 1990 for a candlelight vigil in the city's Victoria Park to remember the crackdown's victims until last year when police barred the gathering, citing pandemic controls on social gatherings.
