‘Sliding into an abyss’: Beijing’s top office in Hong Kong urges stronger crackdown against unrest Agency calls for city’s administration and police to use all necessary measures to restore order ...... It calls on the Hong Kong government to do everything in its power to end the turmoil and ‘arrest the criminals and severely punish their violent acts’ ....... The warning comes as the financial hub reels from some of the worst violence since massive anti-government protests started five months ago, with the number of protesters arrested since Monday surpassing the total for the whole previous week.......... This week, a protester was shot by police, a man was set on fire, roads were blocked and university campuses turned into battlegrounds............. Beijing has again thrown its weight behind the city’s administration and police force, urging them to take tougher action...... It called on the Hong Kong government, police and judiciary to “decisively adopt all necessary means to forcefully crack down on various acts of violence and terrorism”. ....... “If the government and citizens cannot work together to end the unrest, Hong Kong’s ability to govern itself will be questioned, and the central government will consider interfering in its own way.”
