Editor note: Prohibiting the press from getting into close proximity while the riot police conduct their stop and search has been a commonly employed tactic. It is a deliberate action by the police, to show that in situations like these, they have the upper hand, and they are the most powerful. The freedom of press in Hong Kong has clearly decomposed, due to such actions by the Hong Kong Police Force.
