HONG KONG—Protesters convened inside shopping malls on Dec. 21 to commemorate an incident when thugs beat protesters and commuters inside a metro station, in addition to urging people to boycott pro-Beijing or pro-police shops this holiday season.

Over 100 protesters held a peaceful sit-in at Yoho Mall in Yuen Long, to mark the five-month anniversary of Yuen Long metro station attack, when white-shirted gangsters rushed into the station to indiscriminately beat up passengers, leaving at least 45 people injured.
