Over 500 students gathered on campus to mourn the passing of Chow Tsz-Lok

Students held banners that read "Chow Tsz-lok, we will carry on on your behalf", "Investigate Police Brutality" and "Stop Police Lies". Students called for class boycott next week and asked other universities to join.

The Convocation Ceremony of the University of Science and Technology, originally scheduled in this afternoon (Nov 8), has been cancelled, after their 22-year-old student Chow passed away in the morning. Chow fell off in a carpark in Tseung Kwan O on November 4 during police operation. The cause of his fall has raised questions among the public.
