HONG KONG student leaders including the teenage face of the pro-democracy movement, Joshua Wong, were arrested on Friday on charges relating to mass protests as authorities target prominent figures who spearheaded the rallies.
Police have vowed to investigate the "principal instigators" of protests for fully free leadership elections that lasted for more than two months and brought parts of the city to a standstill before rally camps were cleared in December.
