Hong Kong: Authorities in Hong Kong launched an investigation on Wednesday into a television news video that appeared to show six police officers leading a pro-democracy activist around a dark corner, forcing the handcuffed man to the ground and repeatedly kicking him as he curled into a ball.
Outrage over the purported beating — following widespread clashes between security forces and demonstrators — could becoming a new rallying point for protest groups trying to remain on the streets despite increasing crackdowns and dwindling numbers.
The man in the video was identified as Ken Tsang Kin-chui, a social worker and member of the pro-democracy Civic Party. A photographs of Tsang was later released by activists, showing bruising around his face, neck and back.
Meanwhile, the BBC's website was blocked in China on Wednesday, a day after a video of Hong Kong police beating and kicking a pro-democracy protester began circulating online. The move appears to be the first time the British broadcaster's website has been completely blocked in China since December 2010.
