'We shall not surrender,' Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong says after release on bail

Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong said he will not surrender even after he was charged with organising an illegal protest on Friday. Wong, who led pro-democracy demonstrations five years ago that foreshadowed the latest turbulence, is the most prominent activist to be arrested since protests escalated in mid-June over fears China is exerting greater control over the city. Police arrested several other activists and blocked plans for a mass demonstration on Saturday, in a show of force a day before the fifth anniversary of China's decision to rule out universal suffrage in the former British colony
