HONG KONG—Hong Kong police detained eight people, including activists and artists, on the eve of the 34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre, a move that signals the city’s shrinking freedom of expression.
Police said in a statement late Saturday that four people have been arrested for allegedly disrupting order in public spaces or carrying out acts with seditious intent. Four others were taken away for investigation on suspicion of breaching public peace. Authorities did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment Saturday.
