"Hong Kong marks Tiananmen deaths
Hong Kong vigil
Hong Kong is the only place in China to mark the 1989 events
Tens of thousands in Hong Kong have held a vigil on the 16th anniversary of the bloody crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrations in Tiananmen Square.
Protesters sang songs and listened to speeches in China's only commemoration of events in the capital, Beijing.
Hundreds were killed when troops moved in to suppress a demonstration for more political freedoms in the country.
In Beijing, security has been stepped up with police officers patrolling the square to avoid protests."
