HONG KONG, Dec. 9 (UPI) -- A student protest site in Hong Kong's business district will be cleared beginning Thursday, a court ruled Tuesday.
A ruling published by Hong Kong's High Court specified that three areas of the Admiralty district, where demonstrators have established encampments and where violence erupted two weeks ago, will be cleared to return them to normal business. The court was responding to a claim by the municipal bus company, which said the 10-week occupation of the area was damaging business.
