Hong Kong security police today raided the museum that houses exhibits commemorating Beijing’s deadly crackdown on Tiananmen Square in 1989, a day after they arrested four members of the group that ran the venue. Officers from the city’s newly set-up national security police went into the now-shuttered June 4 museum for a search and cordoned off the building entrance. In the afternoon, officers moved out multiple exhibits including the giant logo of the museum, a paper model of the Goddess of Democracy — a symbol of the 1989 pro-democracy student movement in Beijing — photos of each year’s candlelight vigils the alliance held in Hong Kong and at least 36 of boxes of materials from the museum to a truck.
