By Pak Yiu and Jessie Pang HONG KONG (Reuters) - Hong Kong police arrested on Friday an organiser of annual vigils for the victims of China s 1989 Tiananmen crackdown on pro-democracy protesters, in what activists see as a suppression of one of the city s most powerful symbols of democratic hope. The arrest of Chow Hang Tung, vice-chairwoman of the Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China, comes as thousands of police are expected to patrol the city s streets to prevent people from gathering. The heightened vigilance from authorities was a marked departure from Hong Kong s cherished freedoms of speech and assembly, bringing the global financial hub closer in line with mainland China s strict controls on society, activists say. The annual June 4 vigil in Hong Kong s Victoria Park, the world s largest, is widely seen as a symbol of the former British colony s democratic aspirations and desire to preserve its different way of life from mainland China.
