Protesters rally near Hong Kong harbor, more demos planned over Christmas

More than 1,000 protesters, many in surgical masks and balaclavas, filled a harborside plaza near Hong Kong's financial district late on Monday to demand full democracy and an independent inquiry into alleged police brutality. The demonstrators gathered at the harborside on Monday sang "Glory to Hong Kong", a protest anthem, and shone lights from their mobile phones. Henry, a 28-year-old banker, said he was in the plaza to protest a recent police shutdown of Spark Alliance, a fund-raising platform for protesters.
