Hong Kong: Mass protest gives way to ambulance

A mass protest was staged in Hong Kong on Sunday calling for the complete withdrawal of the government's extradition bill and the resignation of Chief Executive Carrie Lam, a day after she announced the suspension of the controversial legislation.

The protesters, the vast majority of whom were dressed in black as a symbol of what they consider to be a loss of democracy in Hong Kong, also urged that Lam, who has only suspended the bill temporarily, must condemn the excessive use of police force during the June 12 protests, reports Efe news.
