【當年今日|反修例回顧】2019年9月29日:近百人被捕後暴動罪成 記者疑被槍射右眼致盲
https://bit.ly/4eZGWMr

2019年9月29日,網民發起「全球反極權遊行」,但未有申請不反對通知書。中午,示威者未起步,已在銅鑼灣與警方爆衝突;下午,多名示威者包圍政府總部及特首辦,扔擲汽油彈等;有速龍小隊突襲出現,拘捕多人。

事後,共有96人被控於金鐘道及夏慤道政府總部一帶參與暴動,是反修例事件中的大型檢控之一。96人中,共有68人認罪,27人不認罪,經審訊全被裁定罪成。定罪總人數為95人,餘下一人自2020年8月起缺席聆訊,遭法庭頒下拘捕令;有媒體報道指該被告已乘船偷渡往台灣,其後轉至美國⋯
2024年9月28日,是香港「雨傘運動」爆發十週年。十年前,香港民主派支持者為了爭取一個沒有篩選機制的普選制度,佔領政府總部外的道路,揭開為期79天的佔領運動。

在抗議活動中,金鐘、銅鑼灣和旺角的主要地區被佔領,示威者搭起帳篷並設置路障,2014年9月28日,香港警方在金鐘夏慤道對示威者進行大規模驅散行動,施放自1997年主權移交後的首發催淚彈。

這場運動為香港的公民社會帶來了重大翻轉,激發了年輕人的民主意識與參與政治活動的熱情,但亦加劇了社會群體的分裂,也未換來政府的讓步。

12月15日,警方完全清理了所有的示威營地後,這場運動正式落幕。
