Hong Kong rallies for bus victims
Thousands of people have rallied in Hong Kong to demand justice for victims of last week's
Philippines hostage crisis in which eight tourists from Hong Kong were killed.
Organisers billed the Hong Kong rally on Sunday as a rare show of unity among pro-Beijing and opposition groups, who are jointly staging the march.
"The main theme [of Sunday's rally] is to express our condolences to those who died in this tragedy and call on the Philippine government to conduct a full, fair and independent investigation," Albert Ho, the chairman of Hong Kong's Democratic Party, said.
The rally comes almost a week after the botched hostage rescue operation on a tourist bus in Manila, the capital of the Philippines, on August 23.
Rolando Mendoza, a sacked Philippine police officer, took the busload of Hong Kong tourists hostage in a bid to have himself cleared of extortion charges and get his job back.
The siege lasted more than 11-hours and Filipino security forces have been criticised for their handling of the crisis.
