Twenty Falun Gong followers march in Hong Kong August 12, 2002 to call
for an end to Beijing's suppression of the controversial spiritual
movement and the preservation of freedoms in the territory. The protest
took place ahead of Thursday's verdict in the case of 16 Falun Gong
followers accused of causing a public obstruction outside Beijing's
main representative office in Hong Kong while protesting China's
crackdown on the movement. REUTERS/Kin Cheung
