Hong Kong Protests Resume as Citizens Seek Accountability for Police’s Metro Station Attack

HONG KONG—Citizens continue to protest after Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam announced earlier in the week that a controversial extradition bill would be formally withdrawn.

Protesters gathered outside the Prince Edward metro station on Sept. 6 amid growing concerns that people went missing after police stormed inside the station last weekend and indiscriminately beat and subdued passengers whom they suspected of being protesters who committed offenses.

The extradition bill that sparked the city’s largest protest movement proposed allowing individuals to be sent to mainland China for trial. It drew widespread opposition amid fears that the law would be abused by the Chinese communist regime to silence and punish dissidents or critics.

Although Lam announced the bill’s formal withdrawal via a televised address on Sept. 4, protesters said the concession was too little, too late and want all of their other demands to be answered.
