Hong Kong: Million March against extradition law!

HONG KONG: A million people marched through the streets here today demonstrating against planned extradition law. 

Pundits at the helm of affairs noted that today’s demonstration was the biggest since Hong Kong was returned to China by Britain and the Tiananmen protests.  

It is pertinent to mention here that Hong Kong’s pro-Beijing leaders are pushing a bill through the legislature that would allow extraditions to any jurisdiction with which it does not already have a treaty (including mainland China).
