Hong Kong riot police filmed in heavy-handed arrest of young demonstrator
Hong Kong riot police were filmed on Sunday using what appeared to be heavy-handed tactics to arrest a young protester.
Footage shows a crowd of media forming on Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui where a young man is on the floor surrounded by riot police.
The officers proceed to block any line of sight for reporters, while they pin the youngster to the ground and search his rucksack.
The filmer said: "This video towards the end shows what appears to be police physically abusing a young man in their custody who was not resisting arrest."
