    The HK Alliance said police ordered the removals within a week, citing national security rules.

The Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China said on Thursday that it is removing all its posts on online platforms – at the demand of national security police.

The alliance, which used to organise June 4 vigils, said its website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube entries would be taken down at 10pm, although it noted that it doesn't own or operate the June 4 online museum.

It said in a statement that last Friday, police ordered the removals within a week, citing national security rules.

The alliance added that it will start a new Facebook page to disseminate information.

The alliance is facing a charge of inciting subversion of state power, as are three of its leaders or former leaders – Lee Cheuk-yan, Albert Ho and Chow Hang-tung.
