HONG KONG -- The organizer of Hong Kong's annual commemoration of China's Tiananmen Square crackdown on Sunday rejected a police demand to hand over information on its members and finances and revealed plans to hold a meeting this month to vote on disbanding.

The Hong Kong police warned the organization will have to face the law and a spokesman for the security bureau, which oversees the police, urged the group to "turn back before it is too late."
